>> What is RNAi? In the past decade or so, RNA -- a cousin of DNA – has been shown to have a much more prominent role in cellular activity as a regulator of behavior.

The closest one, for age related macular degeneration, is from what used to be called Sirna, now part of Merck (NYSE: MRK), the first RNAi deal to bite me you know where. Nothing else appears close [emphasis added]. <<
Actually, Sirna-027 (the RNAi drug for AMD from MRK) is not even in the lead! Bevasiranib from OPK is (#msg-21124315).
