Methods for slowing disease progression in an individual suffering from familial ALS are provided. Also provided are methods of increasing the survival time of an individual suffering from familial ALS. These methods employ antisense oligonucleotides targeted to SOD1, for use in inhibiting the expression of SOD1 in the central nervous system of an individual suffering from familial ALS.
摘要:
Modified oligonucleotides having a conserved G4 sequence and a sufficient number of flanking nucleotides to significantly inhibit the activity of a virus or phospholipase A2 or to modulate the telomere length of a chromosome are provided. G4 quartet oligonucleotide structures are also provided. Methods of prophylaxis, diagnostics and therapeutics for viral-associated diseases and diseases associated with elevated levels of phospholipase A2 are also provided. Methods of modulating telomere length of a chromosome are also provided; modulation of telomere length is believed to play a role in the aging process of a cell and in control of malignant cell growth.
