Oligonucleotides act on the RNA level through different molecular pathways, but there is a major drawback when using them as drugs: their poor bioavailability and cellular uptake. Over the years, a range of different CPPs have been developed, including natural translocating proteins through to newly-designed computer-prediction sequences 3.

RNA therapeutics are a novel class of biopharmaceuticals that harness the power of RNA molecules for the treatment and prevention of a wide range of disorders, including oncological, and genetic disorders as well as infectious diseases. Non-coding RNAs include antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and RNA aptamers.

Today, spatial omics technologies enable imaging-based identification of cells in their native tissue context while simultaneously detecting hundreds of RNAs or tens of protein markers in the same cells. Analysing spatial changes during disease progression or treatment response is key to fully understand pathologies.

This approach has led to the development of two software packages for RNA sequencing analysis and reproducible ribosomal profiling 1,2. For example, we recently collaborated with two sequencing laboratories to determine optimal parameters for RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) in the context of a vaccine clinical trial.
