cholesterol conjugated sirna

1. Cholesterol-siRNA Conjugates Cholesterol-siRNA conjugates belong to lipophilic siRNA derivates. Cholesterol is one of the most well-studied lipid moieties. It's the part of membrane as it contains 15%-30% of cellular membranes and it is also transported into cells by LDL and HDL, which bind to corresponding receptors. So cholesterol-siRNA can bind to LDL and HDL effectively. Cholesterol was conjugated to the 3′-terminus of the sense strand of siRNA via a pyrrolidone linkage. So cholesterol-siRNA conjugate can dramatically improve the pharmacokinetic properties of siRNA, like half-life and bioavailability in serum. Figure 1. The structure of cholesterol (CAS No. 57-88-5) Cholesterol-siRNA conjugates were more effectively retained in the body compared with other lipophilic conjugates. Cholesterol-siRNA conjugate accumulated in almost all organs, and most effectively in the liver, adrenal glands, spleen and skin, following subcutaneous injection. There are many cholesterol-siRNA conjugates which are at the clinical trial stage. Cholesterol-siRNA conjugate RXI-109 by PXi Pharmaceuticals was under Phase II clinical studies for its ability to reduce hypertrophic scarring. RXI-109 targets connective tissue growth factor. RXI-109 was also evaluated in a Phase I/II trial in the eyes of age-related macular degeneration patients at risk for subretinal fibrosis.
