Abstract:
RNA interference using small interfering RNAs which are specific for the ICAM-1 gene inhibits expression of this gene. Diseases which involve ICAM-1-mediated cell adhesion, such as inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, diabetic retinopathy and other complications arising from type I diabetes, age related macular degeneration and many types of cancer, can be treated by administering the small interfering RNAs.
