Roche announced today that it has agreed to acquire Santaris Pharma, a privately held biopharmaceutical company based near Copenhagen, Denmark. Santaris Pharma has pioneered its proprietary Locked Nucleic Acid (LNA) platform that has contributed to an emerging era of RNA-targeting therapeutics.

Santaris has been around for quite a while—see #msg-27943365 re a 2008 paper in Nature on the LNA platform.
