Abstract excerpt
Antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) is a powerful agent for gene therapy, designed to form complementary pairs with specific mRNA to inhibit gene expression. However, low specificity limits its potential. To overcome this challenge, we developed a Y-shape DNA nanostructure that enhances the specificity in ASO-based treatment by introducing a detection trigger. The design incorporates the phenotype-specific miR21...
