In addition, the meroduplex may have at least one uridine substituted with a 5-methyluridine, a nucleoside replaced with a locked nucleic acid, or optionally other modifications, and any combination thereof. Also provided are methods of decreasing expression of an IL17A gene in a cell or in a subject to treat an IL17A-related disease.
