Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration Formulated as nanoparticles; SMA fibroblast exon 7 inclusion (GM03813); dose-response across PMO lengths
Rna Concentration PMO 175–700 nM and 0.5–1 µM (length-dependent)
Mixing Ratio peptide:PMO molar ratio 5:1; tested 175–700 nM (23/25-mer) and 0.5–1 µM (18–25-mer)

Formulation Components PF14 + PMO SMA 18-mer (ISS-N1); 5'-TCACTTTCATAATGCTGG-3'; PMO SMA 20-mer (ISS-N1); 5'-ATTCACTTTCATAATGCTGG-3'; PMO SMA 23-mer (ISS-N1); 5'-ATTCACTTTCATAATGCTGGCAG-3'; PMO SMA 25-mer (ISS-N1); 5'-AGATTCACTTTCATAATGCTGGCAG-3'
Size Nm 134.00
Zeta Mv
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells U2OS stable luciferase reporter (BTK intron XLA model); SMA type I fibroblasts GM03813; H2K mdx myotubes + healthy H2K myotubes
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type in vitro splice switching (RT-PCR exon inclusion/skipping; luc reporter splice correction)
Output Value Robust exon 7 inclusion even at 175 nM (23/25-mer); near-complete inclusion at higher doses.
Output Units
Output Notes Longer PMOs showed slightly higher splice-switching activity vs 18/20-mer in these assays.
Toxicity Notes Myotube viability (MTS): no toxicity at working concentration (~5 µM peptide). St-RXR4 showed toxicity at 40 µM (without PMO).
