Trimannose-coupled antimiR-21 for macrophage-targeted inhalation treatment of acute inflammatory lung damage

Abstract Recent studies of severe acute inflammatory lung disease including COVID-19 identify macrophages to drive pulmonary hyperinflammation and long-term damage such as fibrosis. Here, we report on the development of a first-in-class, carbohydrate-coupled inhibitor of microRNA-21 (RCS-21), as a t...
