ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed for enhancement of the efficacy of therapeutic treatment for inducing cell death in a cell having an anti-apoptotic gene by the enhancement of apoptosis. An antisense oligonucleotide is disclosed which hybridizes with the nucleic acid sequence of the anti-apoptotic gene. The oligonucleotide is administered to the cell in an amount sufficient to inhibit expression of the gene, thus rendering the cell susceptible to induction of apoptosis, and consequently achieving higher efficacy of therapeutic treatment.
