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