Overview

Sry antisense oligonucleotide is an experimental RNA-based therapy designed to knock down the expression of the Y-chromosome gene *SRY* (Sex-determining region Y). Research indicates that *SRY* is expressed in male dopamine (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra and is significantly upregulated in Parkinson's disease (PD) models. By inhibiting *SRY* synthesis, this ASO aims to provide sex-specific neuroprotection for male dopamine neurons. Preclinical studies in toxin-induced rat models of PD have shown that reducing nigral *SRY* levels diminishes motor deficits, prevents dopamine cell loss, and reduces markers of DNA damage, mitochondrial degradation, and neuroinflammation. The therapy is being developed as a potential disease-modifying treatment specifically for men with Parkinson's disease, with humanized versions utilizing 2-O-Methoxyethyl (MOE) chemistry currently in development.
