Description
Summary:In the past few years, antisense methodology has moved from <em>in vitro</em> studies to <em>in vivo</em> studies and first human trials. While the basic concept of antisense technology is simple, the methodological problems associated with its use are numerous and complex. Antisense- based methods have proven to be a field of research where careful attention to experimental protocols and appropriate controls is necessary. <br/> The <em>Manual of Antisense Methodology</em> emphasizes the application of antisense oligonucleotides, and is a guide for the identification of antisense and non-antisense effects in different experimental settings. The work is organized into three sections: antisense application <em>in vitro</em>, antisense application <em>in vivo</em> (animal models) and finally, clinical antisense studies. Where at all possible, the methods are described in sufficient detail to allow reproduction of a given experiment. <br/> The <em>Manual of Antisense Methodology</em> will be of interest to researchers in immunology, cancer research, pharmacology and internal medicine; and physicians conducting clinical studies in these fields.
