METHODS FOR THE PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF MAJOR ADVERSE CARDIOVASCULAR EVENTS USING COMPOUNDS THAT MODULATE APOLIPOPROTEIN B
-
Paragraph 00642, (2016/03/22)
Provided herein, for example, are methods generally relating to preventing, treating and/or managing a major adverse cardiovascular event in a subject with a disease or condition at risk for a major adverse cardiovascular event, e.g., familial hypercholesterolemia. Also provided herein are methods relating to administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of an antisense oligonucleotide having a nucleobase SEQ ID NO: 247 (e.g., mipomersen).
EFFECTS OF APOLIPOPROTEIN B INHIBITION ON GENE EXPRESSION PROFILES IN ANIMALS
-
Paragraph 0245, (2015/11/17)
Antisense compounds, compositions and methods are provided for modulating the expression of apolipoprotein B. The compositions comprise antisense compounds, particularly antisense oligonucleotides, targeted to nucleic acids encoding apolipoprotein B. Methods of using these compounds for modulation of apolipoprotein B expression and for treatment of diseases associated with expression of apolipoprotein B are provided. Methods are provided for modulating the expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism, useful in the treatment of conditions associated with cardiovascular risk. Antisense oligonucleotides targeted to apolipoprotein B reduce the level of apolipoprotein B mRNA, lower serum cholesterol and shift liver gene expression profiles from those of an obese animal towards those of a lean animal. Further provided are methods for improving the cardiovascular risk of a subject through antisense inhibition of apolipoprotein B. Also provided are methods for employing antisense oligonucleotides targeted to apolipoprotein B to modulate a cellular pathway or metabolic process.
