Vaccine Formulation Strategies and Challenges Involved in RNA Delivery for Modulating Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Diseases: A Race from Laboratory to Market.

[PMID: 36851119 PMCID: PMC9963957 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines11020241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
It has been demonstrated that noncoding RNAs have significant physiological and pathological roles. Modulation of noncoding RNAs may offer therapeutic approaches as per recent findings. Small RNAs, mostly long noncoding RNAs, siRNA, and microRNAs make up noncoding RNAs. Inhibiting or promoting protein breakdown by binding to 3' untranslated regions of target mRNA, microRNAs post-transcriptionally control the pattern of gene expression. Contrarily, long non-coding RNAs perform a wider range of tasks, including serving as molecular scaffolding, decoys, and epigenetic regulators. This article provides instances of long noncoding RNAs and microRNAs that may be a biomarker of CVD (cardiovascular disease). In this paper we highlight various RNA-based vaccine formulation strategies designed to target these biomarkers-that are either currently in the research pipeline or are in the global pharmaceutical market-along with the physiological hurdles that need to be overcome.

Abstract
The popularization of genome-wide analyses and RNA sequencing led to the discovery that a large part of the human genome, while effectively transcribed, does not encode proteins. Long non-coding RNAs have emerged as critical regulators of gene expression in both normal and disease states. Studies of long non-coding RNAs expressed in the heart, in combination with gene association studies, revealed that these molecules are regulated during cardiovascular development and disease. Some long non-coding RNAs have been functionally implicated in cardiac pathophysiology and constitute potential therapeutic targets. Here, we review the current knowledge of the function of long non-coding RNAs in the cardiovascular system, with an emphasis on cardiovascular development and biology, focusing on hypertension, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, ischemia, and heart failure. We discuss potential therapeutic implications and the challenges of long non-coding RNA research, with directions for future research and translational focus.

Abstract
Long-noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a group of transcripts that are longer than 200 nucleotides and do not code for proteins. However, this class of RNAs plays pivotal regulatory roles. The mechanism of their action is highly complex. Mounting evidence shows that lncRNAs can regulate cancer onset and progression in a variety of ways. They can not only regulate cancer cell proliferation, differentiation, invasion and metastasis, but can also regulate glucose metabolism in cancer cells through different ways, such as by directly regulating the glycolytic enzymes and glucose transporters (GLUTs), or indirectly modulating the signaling pathways. In this review, we summarized the role of lncRNAs in regulating glucose metabolism in cancer, which will help understand better the pathogenesis of malignant tumors. The understanding of the role of lncRNAs in glucose metabolism may help provide new therapeutic targets and novel diagnostic and prognosis markers for human cancer.

Acute kidney injury during therapy with an antisense oligonucleotide directed against PCSK9. Am J Kidney Dis 2013; 62:796-800. [PMID: 23561896 DOI: 10.1053/j.ajkd.2013.02.359] [Citation(s) in RCA: 72] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2012] [Accepted: 02/01/2013] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
Antisense oligonucleotides have been explored widely in clinical trials and generally are considered to be nontoxic for the kidney, even at high concentrations. We report a case of toxic acute tubular injury in a healthy 56-year-old female volunteer after a pharmacologically active dose of a locked nucleic acid antisense oligonucleotide was administered. The patient received 3 weekly subcutaneous doses of experimental drug SPC5001, an antisense oligonucleotide directed against PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) that is under investigation as an agent to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Five days after the last dose, the patient's serum creatinine level increased from 0.81 mg/dL at baseline (corresponding to an estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] of 78 mL/min/1.73 m(2)) to 2.67 mg/dL (eGFR, 20 mL/min/1.73 m(2)), and this increase coincided with the presence of white blood cells, granular casts, and minimal hematuria on urine microscopy. The patient's serum creatinine level peaked at 3.81 mg/dL (eGFR, 13 mL/min/1.73 m(2)) 1 week after the last oligonucleotide dose. Kidney biopsy showed multifocal tubular necrosis and signs of oligonucleotide accumulation. Upon conservative treatment, the patient's serum creatinine level gradually decreased and reached her baseline level 44 days after the last oligonucleotide was administered. The patient recovered fully and kidney function was normal at every follow-up visit.
