Short antisense oligonucleotides alleviate the pleiotropic toxicity of RNA harboring expanded CGG repeats

Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome is a neurodegenerative disease caused by toxic RNA containing expanded CGG repeats. Here, the authors show that synthetic oligonucleotides targeting the RNA repeats decrease the pleiotropic effect of this toxic molecule in cellular and animal models of the...
