Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an anti-connexin compound and composition advantageous for regulation of connexin, hemichannel and gap junction and useful for therapy of various diseases, conditions and disorders; and a use method of these compound and composition, a pharmaceutical formulation, a kit and a medical device.SOLUTION: A method and composition for regulating connexin activity for therapy of, for example, cardiovascular, vessel, nerve, wound and other indications are provided. These compound and method can be therapeutically used to alleviate seriousness of adverse effect related to a disease and a disorder where topical destruction of direct cell-cell communication or prevention of hemichannel opening is desired. One aspect provides a compound, composition and method for therapy of a subject affected with vessel disorders.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide compounds (including antisense compounds) useful in tissue engineering.SOLUTION: A method and composition for modulating the activities of connexins are provided (for example, including the use in post-surgical trauma or tissue engineering application). These compounds and methods can be used therapeutically, for example, to reduce the severity of adverse effects associated diseases and disorders where localized disruption in direct cell-cell communication is desirable. A method for reducing tissue damage is associated with an ophthalmic procedure in a subject, comprising administering an antisense compound to the eye of the subject in conjunction with the procedure in an amount sufficient to modulate the expression of a connexin protein in the eye or in cells associated with the eye of the subject.
