Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, disulfiram has clinical limitations due to low patient compliance, and a series of side effects such as drowsiness, headache, and less commonly neurotoxicity
To be effective, disulfiram is usually administered daily, and therefore it is easy for the patient to discontinue the drug

[0321] VI. Preparation of Lipid Particles

[0322] Lipid particles of the invention, e.g., SNALPs, wherein nucleic acids such as interfering RNA (e.g., siRNA) are embedded within the lipid portion of the particle and protected from degradation, can be formed by any method known in the art, the Methods include, but are not limited to, continuous mixing, direct dilution, and in-line dilution.

[0323] In specific embodiments, the cationic lipid may comprise a lipid of Formulas I-III or a salt thereof, alone, or in combination with other cationic lipids. In other embodiments, the non-cationic lipid is egg yolk sphingomyelin (ESM), distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC), dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC), 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl - Phosphatidylcholine (POPC), dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC), monomethyl-phosphatidylethanolamine, dimethyl-phosphatidylethanolamine, 14:0PE (1,2-dimyristoyl- Phosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE)), 16:0PE (1,2-dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (DPPE)),...

Embodiment 1

[0387] This example demonstrates that serum stable nucleic acid-lipid particles (SNALPs) containing siRNA targeting ALDH2 reduce aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 gene expression in murine hepatic cell lines in vitro.

[0388] Material:

[0389] All siRNA molecules used in these studies were chemically synthesized and annealed using standard procedures.

[0390] siRNA sequences targeting aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) used in this study:

[0391]

[0392] where 'r' denotes ribonucleotides, 'm' denotes 2'-O-methylated ribonucleotides, and without any prefix denotes deoxynucleotides.

[0393] Additionally, non-targeting siRNA was included in the study as a control. This siRNA targets the firefly luciferase gene and is not intended to have any specific gene silencing activity in mammalian cells.

[0394] method:

[0395] Nucleic acid-lipid particles consisted of the following "1:57" formulation: 1.4% PEG2000-C-DMA; 57.1% DLinDMA; 7.1% DPPC; and 34.3% cholesterol. Typically, in a...

Embodiment 2

[0405] This example shows that SNALP comprising siRNA targeting ALDH2 reduces aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 gene expression in a whole animal system by the intravenous route of administration.

[0406] Material:

[0407] The mouse ALDH-2 siRNA duplex 1 and non-targeting control siRNA used in this study are described in Example 1.

[0408] method:

[0409] SNALP formulations were prepared as described in Example 1.

[0410] Animal Handling:

[0411] Female BALB / c mice were obtained from Harlan Labs. Animals were administered a single dose of SNALP formulated siRNA, or phosphate-buffered saline by intravenous injection of 10 mL / kg in the lateral tail vein. The siRNA dose administered was 0.025, 0.050 or 0.25 mg / kg body weight. Approximately 48 h after SNALP injection, animals were euthanized and liver tissues were collected in RNA stabilizing solution.

[0412] Organizational Analysis:

[0413]Essentially as described in Judge et al., 2006, Molecular Therapy (Molecular Thera...

Abstract

The present invention provides compositions comprising therapeutic nucleic acids such as interfering RNA (e.g., dsRNA such as siRNA) that target aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) gene expression, lipid particles comprising one or more (e.g., a cocktail) of the therapeutic nucleic acids, methods of making the lipid particles, and methods of delivering and / or administering the lipid particles (e.g., for treating alcoholism in humans).
