説明

Off-target interactions between antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) with stateof-the-art modifications and biological components still pose clinical safety liabilities. Tomitigate a broad spectrumof off-target interactions and enhance the safety profile of ASO drugs, we here devise a nanoarchitecture named BRace On a THERapeutic aSo (BROTHERS or BRO), which is composed of a standard gapmer ASO paired with a partially complementary peptide nucleic acid (PNA) strand. We show that these non-canonical ASO/PNA hybrids have reduced non-specific protein-binding capacity. The optimization of the structural and thermodynamic characteristics of this duplex system enables the operation of an in vivo toehold-mediated strand displacement (TMSD) reaction, effectively reducing hybridization with RNA off-targets. The optimized BROs dramatically mitigate hepatotoxicity while maintaining the ontarget knockdown activity of their parent ASOs in vivo. This technique not only introduces a BRO class of drugs that could have a transformative impact on the extrahepatic delivery of ASOs, but can also help uncover the toxicity mechanism of ASOs.
