Provided herein are compositions, methods and kits for modulating expression of target genes, particularly heat shock protein 47 (hsp47). The compositions, methods and kits may include nucleic acid molecules (for example, short interfering nucleic acid (siNA), short interfering RNA (siRNA), double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), micro-RNA (miRNA) or short hairpin RNA (shRNA)) that modulate a gene encoding hsp47, for example, the gene encoding human hsp47. The composition and methods disclosed herein may also be used in treating conditions and disorders associated with hsp47 such as liver fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis, peritoneal fibrosis and kidney fibrosis.
本文提供了用于调节靶基因,特别是热休克蛋白 47(hsp47)表达的组合物、方法和试剂盒。这些组合物、方法和试剂盒可包括调节编码 hsp47 的基因(例如编码人类 hsp47 的基因)的核酸分子(例如短干扰核酸 (siNA)、短干扰 RNA (siRNA)、双链 RNA (dsRNA)、微 RNA (miRNA) 或短发夹 RNA (shRNA))。本文公开的组合物和方法还可用于治疗与 hsp47 相关的病症和疾病,如肝脏纤维化、肺纤维化、腹膜纤维化和肾脏纤维化。
