Compositions and methods for modulating type i interleukin-1 receptor expression

摘要

Compositions and methods are provided for the treatment and diagnosis of diseases amenable to treatment through modulation of type I IL-1 receptor mRNA expression. In accordance with preferred embodiments, oligomers are provided which are specifically hybridizable with DNA or RNA encoding type I interleukin-1 receptor. Methods of modulating type I IL-1 receptor expression and of treating animals suffering from diseases amenable to therapeutic intervention by modulating the expression of type I interleukin-1 receptor with an oligomer specifically hybridizable with DNA or RNA encoding type I interleukin-1 receptor are disclosed.
