More Information
Summary:The invention provides siRNA compositions that (1) interfere with viral replication of human papillomavirus (HPV), herpes simplex virus (HSV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in mucosal tissues, such as genital tissues, and (2) treat fungal infections. The compositions include siRNA molecules that target HPV, complexed with a dendrimer that treats and prevents genital herpes (HSV) and HIV. The compositions also include siRNA molecules that target HPV, complexed with a histidine-lysine (HK) polymer that treats and prevent fungus infection. The combined formulations of siRNA and dendrimer provide treatment of the infections from HPVs, HSVs, and HIVs. The combined formulations of siRNA and HK polymer provide treatment of HPVs and fungus infections.
