Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to antisense oligonucleotides that modulate the expression of and/or function of a Lipid transport and metabolism gene, in particular, by targeting natural antisense polynucleotides of a Lipid transport and metabolism gene. The invention also relates to the identification of these antisense oligonucleotides and their use in treating diseases and disorders associated with the expression of a Lipid transport and metabolism genes.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of upregulating a function of and/or the expression of an ABCA1 polynucleotide having SEQ ID NO: 1 in patient cells or tissues in vivo or in sum comprising: contacting said cells or tissues with at least one modified single stranded antisense compound of 12 to 30 nucleotides in length that targets and specifically hybridizes to a complementary region of a natural antisense polynucleotide of the ABCA1 polynucleotide having SEQ ID NO: 8 or 9; thereby u…
