TREATMENT OF HEPATOCYTE GROWTH FACTOR HGF RELATED DISEASES BY INHIBITION OF NATURAL ANTISENSE TRANSCRIPT TO HGF

摘要

The present invention is particularly directed to antisense oligonucleotides that target the natural antisense polynucleotide of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) to regulate the expression and / or function of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). The invention also relates to the identification of such antisense oligonucleotides and their use in the treatment of diseases and disorders associated with the expression of HGF.
