Enhancing Neuronogenesis and Counteracting Neuropathogenic Gene Haploinsufficiencies by RNA Gene Activation

Small activating RNAs (saRNAs), targeting endogenous genes and stimulating their transcription, are a promising tool for implementing a variety of neurotherapeutic strategies. Among these there is the stimulation of select histogenetic subroutines for purposes of cell-based brain repair, as well as the therapeutic treatment of gene expression deficits underlying severe neurological disorders.
