Complement Activation and Hemodynamic Changes Following Intravenous Administration of Phosphorothioate Oligonucleotides in the Monkey
Abstract
Rapid intravenous infusion of GEM 91, a 25-mer phosphorothioate oligonucleotide complementary to the gag site of HIV, in the monkey produces transient decreases in peripheral total WBC and neutrophil counts, hemoconcentration, and a brief increase followed by a prolonged decrease in arterial blood pressure. These changes are preceded by and are likely mediated by activation of C5 complement. These effects are dose and infusion rate dependent and can be avoided by administering GEM 91 by slow intravenous infusion. Similar hemodynamic effects are produced with rapid intravenous infusion of other phosphorothioate oligonucleotides varying in length from 20- to 33-mer, and are, therefore, not sequence specific but a property of this chemical structure.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
