摘要: Hyperlipidaemia, due to elevations of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) or triglycerides (TGs), is recognised as a significant risk factor contributing the development coronary heart disease (CHD), leading cause morbidity and mortality in Western world. Even though variety established antihyperlipidaemic agents are available, majority high-risk patients do not reach their lipid goals, indicating need for new more effective therapeutics be used alone combination with existing drugs. Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), designed specifically selectively inhibit novel targets involved cholesterol/TG homeostasis, represent class that may prove beneficial treatment hyperlipidaemias resulting from various genetic, metabolic behavioural factors. This article describes antisense technology platform, highlights advantages these drugs hyperlipidaemia reviews current research this area.
