Means for efficient skipping of exon 45 in dystrophin pre-mrna using an antisense oligonucleotide and uses thereof

摘要

The. invention relates to a method for inducing or promoting skipping of exon 45 of DMD pre-mRNA in a Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy patient, preferably in an isolated (muscle) cell, the method comprising providing said cell with an antisense molecule that binds to a continuous stretch of at least 21 nucleotides within said exon. The invention further relates to such antisense molecule used in said method.
