Antisense inhibition of Fas mediated signaling

摘要

Compounds, compositions and methods are provided for inhibiting Fas mediated signaling. The compositions comprise antisense compounds targeted to nucleic acids encoding Fas, FasL and Fap-1. Methods of using these antisense compounds for inhibition of Fas, FasL and Fap-1 expression and for treatment of diseases, particularly autoimmune and inflammatory diseases and cancers, associated with overexpression or constitutive activation of Fas, FasL or Fap-1 are provided.
