Expression of ssDNA in Mammalian Cells
Antisense therapy involves the use of antisense oligonucleotides for altering targeted gene function. However, the low efficiency of cell delivery of antisense oligonucleotides has limited the efficacy of antisense therapeutic approaches.

Targeting TGFβ Signaling to Address Fibrosis Using Antisense Oligonucleotides
Fibrosis results from the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix in chronically injured tissue. The fibrotic process is governed by crosstalk between many signaling pathways.
