RNA Interference Mediated Inhibition of Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase-1B (PTP-1B) Gene Expression Using Short Interfering RNA

摘要

The present invention concerns methods and reagents useful in modulating gene expression in a variety of applications, including use in therapeutic, diagnostic, target validation, and genomic discovery applications associated with insulin response. Specifically, the invention relates to small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules capable of mediating RNA interference (RNAi) against PTP-1B polypeptide and polynucleotide targets.
