Understand how different types of mutations behave, what a SNP is, and how n-Lorem uses all the available information to design an appropriate ASO for each patient.
Genetics can be intricate, no doubt. With millions of mutations present in every human, one might wonder why not everyone is impacted by pathogenic diseases. The Patient Empowerment Program aims to assist you in grasping the fundamental concepts of various mutations and how they function, paving the way for you to enhance your understanding of genetics. Delve into the diverse array of disease-causing mutations, their characteristics, and explore which mutations could potentially be addressed through ASO treatment in this concluding episode of Advanced Genetics.
On This Episode We Discuss:
- The nature of a SNP
- Pre-mature-m-RNA effects
- Indels can disrupt the reading frame
- Defining Alleles, Homozygous, Heterozygous, and Compound Heterozygous
- The difference between whole exome and genome sequencing
- How we, at n-Lorem, decide which patients are amendable to ASO treatments
- How we design ASOs to take advantage of different post-RNA binding mechanisms
- Mechanisms: Non-allele selective RNAse H1, Allele-selective RNAse H1, and Splicing ASOs

The host of the show is Dr. Stanley Crooke, a scientist, a physician, an entrepreneur and the father of antisense technology. Dr. Crooke is responsible for driving the development of antisense or ASO technology, an RNA-targeted technology responsible for the commercialization of three best- and first-in class medicines and more than 40 drugs in development. In 2020, Stan formed n-Lorem to use this powerful technology to develop experimental personalized ASO medicines for nano-rare patients (1 to 30 patients worldwide) for free, for life.

We cannot do
this alone
Together we are changing the world—
one patient at a time
We hope that you join us on this journey to discover, develop and provide individualized antisense medicines for free for life for nano-rare patients. The ultimate personalized medicine approach – for free, for life.
