METHOD FOR REDUCING SCARRING DURING WOUND HEALING USING ANTISENSE COMPOUNDS DIRECTED TO CTGF

摘要

This invention provides a method for reducing hypertropic scarring resulting from dermal wound healing in a subject in need which comprises administering to the subject an antisense oligonucleotide which inhibits expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in an amount effective to inhibit expression of CTGF and thereby reduce hypertrophic scarring.
