摘 要:Splice-switching antisense oligonucleotides(ASOs)and engineered U7 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein(U7 Sm OPT)are the most commonly used methods for exon ***,challenges remain,such as limited organ delivery and repeated dosing for ASOs and unknown risks of by-products produced by U7 Sm ***,we showed that antisense circular RNAs(AS-circRNAs)can effectively mediate exon skipping in both minigene and endogenous *** also showed a relatively higher exon skipping efficiency at the tested Dmd minigene than U7 Sm ***-circRNA specifically targets the precursor mRNA splicing without off-target ***,AS-circRNAs with adeno-associated virus(AAV)delivery corrected the open reading frame and restored the dystrophin expression in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular *** conclusion,we develop an alternative method for regulating RNA splicing,which might be served as a novel tool for genetic disease treatment.
