Antisense Oligonucleotide Modulators Of Serotonin Receptor 2c And Uses Thereof, Stefan Stamm, Manli Shen, Serene Josiah
Antisense Oligonucleotide Modulators Of Serotonin Receptor 2c And Uses Thereof, Stefan Stamm, Manli Shen, Serene Josiah
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry Faculty Patents
The present invention provides, among other things, oligonucleotide modulators of human 5′-HT2C receptor (HTR2C) and improved methods and composition for treating HTR2C-related diseases, disorders or conditions based on such modulators. In particular, oligonucleotides modulators according to the invention target specific regions in the Exon V/Intron V junction of the human HTR2C pre-mRNA and drive expression of HTR2C Vb splice isoform, leading to increased generation of non-edited strong HTR2C receptor and enhanced serotonin receptor activity.
