Abstract:
The invention provides antisense DNA oligonucleotides which are effective in inhibiting the expression of a wild type COL1A1 gene, wherein said oligonucleotides are used in inhalation therapy to treat various lung diseases.
Chemotherapy Involving Antisense Oligonucleotides For Preventing And/Or Treating Pulmonary Fibrosis
The invention provides, in the treatment of malignant tumors, antisense DNA oligonucleotides which are effective in inhibiting the expression of a wild type COL1A1 gene, in combination with a chemotherapy drug, typically bleomycin, cyclophosphamide, or methotrexate, which otherwise is known to cause lung disease such as pulmonary fibrosis.
Treatment Of Muscular Imbalance In Children By Rerouting Antagonist Groups
Following a diagnosis of muscle imbalance resulting from an injury to the Brachial Plexus, and a determination of which muscle groups have been weakened, tendons of some of the non-weakened muscle groups are transferred, for example, by suturing the tendons of one or more of the non-weakened muscle groups to one or more of the tendons of the weakened muscle groups, thereby tending to eliminate or decrease the muscle imbalance.
Treatment Of Internal Rotation Deformity In Children Caused By An Injury To The Brachial Plexus
Following a diagnosis of a Brachial Plexus injury to a child involving the elevation and rotation of the scapula, surgical intervention is used to reposition the clavicle and the acromion, which are then allowed to re-align and interlock with the scapula, thus tilting the triangle containing the clavicle, acromion and scapula.
