The present invention concerns methods and reagents useful in modulating hepatitis C virus (HCV) gene expression in a variety of applications, including use in therapeutic, diagnostic, target validation, and genomic discovery applications. Specifically, the invention relates to small nucleic acid molecules, such as short interfering nucleic acid (siNA), short interfering RNA (siRNA), double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), micro-RNA (miRNA), and short hairpin RNA (shRNA) molecules capable of mediating RNA interference (RNA/) against hepatitis C virus (HCV) gene expression and/or activity. The small nucleic acid molecules are useful in the treatment and diagnosis of HCV infection, liver failure, hepatocellular carcinoma, cirrhosis and any other disease or condition that responds to modulation of HCV expression or activity.

La présente invention concerne des méthodes et des réactifs qui sont utiles pour moduler l'expression du gène de l'hépatite C (VHC) dans diverses applications, y compris leur utilisation dans des applications de thérapie, de diagnostic, de validation de cible et de découverte du génome. De manière plus spécifique, cette invention concerne des petites molécules d'acide nucléique, telles que des petites molécules d'acide nucléique interférant (siNA), des petites molécules d'ARN interférant (siARN), des molécules d'ARN double brin (dsARN), des molécules de micro-ARN (miARN), et des petites molécules d'ARN en épingle à cheveux (shARN) qui sont capables de faire office de médiateur pour l'interférence d'ARN (RNAi) s'opposant à l'expression et/ou à l'activité du virus de l'hépatite C (VHC). Les petites molécules d'acide nucléique sont utiles dans le traitement et le diagnostic de l'infection par le VHC, l'insuffisance hépatique, le carcinome hépatocellulaire, la cirrhose et tout autre maladie ou pathologie qui réagit à la modulation de l'expression ou de l'activité du VHC.
