Effectiveness of specific RNA-mediated interference through ingested double-stranded RNA in
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
RNAi can be achieved by feeding worms Escherichia coli expressing dousble-stranded RNA corresponding to a specific gene. An optimized feeding method is presented that... -

Phenotypic silencing of cytoplasmic genes using sequence-specific double-stranded short interfering RNA and its application in the reverse genetics of wild type negative-strand RNA viruses
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Background Post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) by short interfering RNA has opened up new directions in the phenotypic mutation of cellular genes. However, its... -

Reducing hypothalamic AGRP by RNA interference increases metabolic rate and decreases body weight without influencing food intake
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Background Several lines of evidence strongly suggest that agouti-related peptide (AGRP) plays a key role in the regulation of metabolic function but ablation of the... -
