MODULATION OF TOLL-LIKE RECEPTOR 8 EXPRESSION BY ANTISENSE OLIGONUCLEOTIDES

摘要

Antisense oligonucleotide compounds, compositions and methods are provided for down regulating the expression of TLR8. The compositions comprise antisense oligonucleotides targeted to nucleic acids encoding TLR8. The compositions may also comprise antisense oligonucleotides targeted to nucleic acids encoding TLR8 in combination with other therapeutic and/or prophylactic compounds and/or compositions. Methods of using these compounds and compositions for down-regulating TLR8 expression and for prevention or treatment of diseases wherein modulation of TLR8 expression would be beneficial are provided.
