Detail of retinitis pigmentosa (RP)
ncRNA name IMPDH1 shRNA
ncRNA Category shRNA
Disease name retinitis pigmentosa (RP)
Species Mus musculus
Tissues/Cell_line retinas
Methods shRNA knockdown, qRT-PCR, histological and immunohistochemical analysis, ERG, Western blot
Expression pattern associated
Functional description AAV-mediated co-expression in the murine retina of a mutant human IMPDH1 gene together with shRNAs validated in vitro and in vivo, targeting both human and mouse IMPDH1, substantially suppresses the negative pathological effects of mutant IMPDH1, at a point where, in the absence of shRNA, expression of mutant protein in the RP10 model essentially ablates all photoreceptors in transfected areas of the retina.
PubMed ID 18385099
Year 2008
Title Therapeutic benefit derived from RNAi-mediated ablation of IMPDH1 transcripts in a murine model of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (RP10).
Drug-related ncRNA NA
