[0157] Example 1: Development of CYP27A1 oligonucleotide inhibitors using human and mouse cell-based assays

[0158] figure 1 The workflow for developing candidate oligonucleotides for inhibition of CYP27A1 expression using human and mouse based assays is shown. First, a computer-based algorithm was used to generate candidate oligonucleotide sequences for CYP27A1 inhibition. Cell-based assays and PCR assays were then used to assess the ability of candidate oligonucleotides to reduce CYP27A1 expression.

[0159] A computer algorithm provided 2114 oligonucleotides complementary to human CYP27A1 mRNA (SEQ ID NO:782, Table 1), 1084 of which were also complementary to rhesus monkey CYP27A1 mRNA (SEQ ID NO:783, Table 1), and 24 were also complementary to mouse CYP27A1 mRNA (SEQ ID NO: 784, Table 1). Eight oligonucleotides are complementary to human, mouse and rhesus monkey CYP27A1 mRNA. Examples of CYP27A1 mRNA sequences are summarized in Table 1:

Abstract

This disclosure relates to oligonucleotides, compositions and methods useful for reducing CYP27A1 expression, particularly in hepatocytes. Disclosed oligonucleotides for the reduction of CYP27A1 expression may be double-stranded or single-stranded and may be modified for improved characteristics such as stronger resistance to nucleases and lower immunogenicity. Disclosed oligonucleotides for the reduction of CYP27A1 expression may also include targeting ligands to target a particular cell or organ, such as the hepatocytes of the liver, and may be used to treat hepatobiliary disease and related conditions (e.g., liver fibrosis).
