Antisense-strand transcription correlates with sense-strand reactivation.
(A) DESeq2-normalised counts for sense and antisense strand transcripts normalised to their maximum values. (B) DESeq2-normalised counts of reads aligned to the proviral sense or antisense-strand exons. Linear model fit with 95% confidence interval shown.

CD4 expression decrease by antisense oligonucleotides. Inhibition of rat T CD4+ cell reactivity [PDF]
In previous studies, we have demonstrated the inhibition of CD4 expression in rat lymphocytes treated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) by antisense oligonucleotides (AS-ODNs) directed against the AUG start region of the cd4 gene.

New, Novel Lipid-Lowering Agents for Reducing Cardiovascular Risk: Beyond Statins [PDF]
Statins are the cornerstone of the prevention and treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). However, even under optimal statin therapy, a significant residual ASCVD risk remains.

Antisense oligonucleotides [PDF]
There are few disease-modifying therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases, but successes on the development of antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) therapeutics for spinal muscular atrophy and Duchenne muscular dystrophy predict a robust future for ASOs in medicine.
