ABSTRACT:
Antisense compounds, compositions and methods are provided for modulating the expression of fra-1. The compositions comprise antisense compounds, particularly antisense oligonucleotides, targeted to nucleic acids encoding fra-1. Methods of using these compounds for modulation of fra-1 expression and for treatment of diseases associated with expression of fra-1 are provided.
