Abstract:
Compounds, compositions and methods are provided for modulating the expression of growth hormone receptor and/or insulin like growth factor-I (IGF-I). The compositions comprise oligonucleotides, targeted to nucleic acid encoding growth hormone receptor. Methods of using these compounds for modulation of growth hormone receptor expression and for diagnosis and treatment of disease associated with expression of growth hormone receptor and/or insulin-like growth factor-I are provided. Diagnostic methods and kits are also provided.

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods for mobilizing stem and/or progenitor cells which are VLA-4 positive to the peripheral blood of a subject or from a tissue. The method comprises administering to the subject or tissue an effective amount of an antisense compound to VLA-4.
Abstract:
A method for the treatment and/or prophylaxis of an animal having a respiratory disease or condition associated with airway hyperresponsiveness, eosinophilia, neutrophilia, leukocytes or overproduction of mucus and/or with the expression of integrin α4 comprising administering to the animal a composition comprising from. 0.001 to 1000 µg per kg body weight of the animal of an antisense compound targeted to a nucleic acid molecule encoding integrin α4.
