Abstract
The present disclosure relates to small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules directed to mRNA transcripts of CD274 to cause downregulation of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in humans. The siRNA can be constructed of unmodified nucleotides or modified nucleotides that exhibit modified sugars, nucleobases, linkages, or covalently bound targeting moieties. Also disclosed herein are pharmaceutical compositions of siRNAs and uses of or methods of using the siRNAs for the treatment of PD-L1 related diseases including but not limited to liver diseases, cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, viral diseases, or hepatitis B.
