Description

General descriptionAn authoritative survey of this fascinating strategy for drug discovery: using complementary oligonucleotides to block expression of disease-associated genes. Contributors discuss selection of gene targets, synthesis of oligonucleotides, routes of administration, and issues of pharmacokinetics. Current research on anti-viral drugs, cancer treatment, and therapies for genetic disorders is summarized.
