<p>The present invention relates to the inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor expression with oligonucleotides. The oligonucleotides of the present invention are thought to bind to target nRNA in a sequence specific manner and prevent expression of the encoded gene. Chemical modifications of the oligonucleotides for increasing their stability and binding efficiency are disclosed. These modifications increase the stability and the efficiency of the oligonucleotides contemplated in this invention. Oligonucleotides compositions can be used in ex vivo therapies for the treatment of macrophages or in vivo therapies by injection, inhalation, topical treatment or other routes of administration.</p> |
