A method and compound for treating skeletal muscle mass deficiency in a human subject are disclosed. The composition is an oligomer of morpholino subunits and phosphorus-containing intersubunit linkages joining a morpholino nitrogen of one subunit to a 5′ exocyclic carbon of an adjacent subunit, contains between 10-40 nucleotide bases, has a base sequence effective to hybridize to an expression-sensitive region of processed or preprocessed human myostatin RNA transcript, identified, in its processed form, by SEQ ID NO:6, and is capable of uptake by target muscle cells in the subject. In practicing the method, the compound is administered in an amount and at a dosage schedule to produce an overall reduction in the level of serum myostatin measured in the patient, and preferably to bring the myostatin level within the a range determined for normal, healthy individuals.

摘要:
Administration of a formulation comprising a antirestenotic compound conjugated to a microparticle carrier is effective to inhibit stenosis formation in a blood vessel. Such stenosis typically results, in the absence of treatment, from trauma to a vessel, such as an incision, excessive pressure, an angioplasty procedure and/or stent implantation. The antirestenotic compound is typically an antiproliferative, immunosuppressive, or antiinflammatory drug, such as rapamycin, tacrolimus, paclitaxel, dexamethasone, or an active analog or derivative, an antisense oligonucleotide, or combinations thereof. The microparticle carrier comprises a suspension of gas-filled microbubbles or biocompatible polymeric microparticles, in a pharmaceutically acceptable liquid vehicle, and is effective to deliver the conjugated therapeutic to the site of vessel injury.
摘要:
Microparticle carriers, particularly protein-encapsulated microbubbles, are used to deliver antiproliferative drugs to target sites in a subject. In particular, antirestenotic drugs are delivered to areas of vascular injury for treatment or prevention of hyperproliferative disease, e.g. stenosis, in blood vessels; and antineoplastic drugs are targeted to tumor sites.
