The use of antisense strategies in modifying biological events signals a new era of pharmacotherapy. Antisense oligodeoxynucleotides and antisense RNA allow pharmacologists to design agents that are more predictable and selective in their actions. This book is a practical, state-of-the-art treatise on antisense oligodeoxynucleotide and antisense RNA technology and the potential application of these strategies in therapeutics. It describes both the advances and setbacks experienced in studying this revolutionary field of study. Critical analyses of the specificity of the agents are featured, and the possibility of antisense oligomers acting through non-antisense mechanisms is considered.
Antisense Oligodeoxynucleotides and Antisense RNA: Novel Pharmacological and Therapeutic Agents covers these important topics:
History of the early development of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides
How oligodeoxynucleotides have been chemically modified to increase their stability, delivery, and penetration into cells
Pharmacokinetic properties of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides
Non-antisense effects of antisense oligonucleotides
In vitro and in vivo model systems
Results of early clinical trials and the potential of agents for treating certain clinical disorders
The use of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides to study reproductive behavior, pain perception, hypertension, and cancer
The use of non-viral and viral expression vectors that encode antisense RNA sequences and their potential therapeutic applications in treating disorders involving abnormal cell growth, in inhibiting replication of HIV, and in treating a variety of neurobiological disorders
