| Bioactivity | Tivanisiran (SYL1001) is a siRNA used for the study of dry eye disease. Tivanisiran was designed to silence transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) mRNA[1]. |
| Invitro | In vitro transfection of tivanisiran was shown to produce a 50-60% decrease in TRPV1 mRNA levels[1][2]. |
