Summary for Patent: 9,506,069
Title:Morpholino-mediated increase in soluble Flt-1 expression results in decreased ocular and tumor neovascularization
Abstract: Methods of inhibiting lymphangiogenesis and/or angiogenesis in a subject are provided. In one aspect, for example, a method of inhibiting angiogenesis in a subject can include binding an antisense morpholino to an mRNA splicing site of VEGFR1 selected from exon13_intron13 junction, intron13_exon14 junction, or a combination thereof. In another aspect, the morpholino includes a member selected from VEGFR1_MOe13, VEGFR1_MOi13, or a combination thereof.

Application Number:14/394,726
Patent Claims:1. A method of inhibiting angiogenesis in a subject wherein the method comprises binding an antisense morpholino to a splicing site of VEGR1 mRNA in the subject wherein the splicing site is selected from the group consisting of exon13_intron13 junction, intron 13_exon14 junction, or a combination thereof such that the VEGFR1 mRNA is spliced into an sFlt-1 isoform, wherein the antisense morpholino is at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1 or is at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the antisense morpholino is selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2, or a combination thereof.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein the antisense morpholino has a sequence that is at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein the antisense morpholino has a sequence that is at least 95% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein the antisense morpholino has the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein the antisense morpholino has a sequence that is at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein the antisense morpholino has a sequence that is at least 95% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein the antisense morpholino has the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.

9. A pharmaceutical composition for inhibiting angiogenesis in a subject, wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and an antisense morpholino capable of binding to a splicing site of VEGR1 mRNA selected from the group consisting of exon13_intron13 junction, intron 13_exon14 junction, or a combination thereof, wherein the antisense morpholino is at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1 or is at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2.

10. The composition of claim 9, wherein the morpholino includes a member selected from the group consisting of VEGFR1.sub.--Moe13 (SEQ ID NO: 1), VEGFR1.sub.--MOi13 (SEQ ID NO: 2), or a combination thereof.

11. The composition of claim 9 wherein the antisense morpholino is at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1.

12. The composition of claim 9 wherein the antisense morpholino is at least 95% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1.

13. The composition of claim 9 wherein the antisense morpholino has the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.

14. The composition of claim 9 wherein the antisense morpholino is at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2.

15. The composition of claim 9 wherein the antisense morpholino is at least 95% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2.

16. The composition of claim 9 wherein the antisense morpholino has the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.
