ABSTRACT:
Certain oligonucleotides capable of inhibiting the production of p120, a cell proliferation-associated nucleolar protein, are provided. Oligonucleotides designed to be hybridizable with nucleic acids encoding nucleolar proteins are believed to be therapeutically useful. Certain of such oligonucleotides, hybridizable to MRNA encoding p120, were made and found to inhibit the synthesis of p120. The oligonucleotides of the invention are useful for the treatment of diseases characterized by hyperproliferation of cells. Methods of treatment and diagnosis of such diseases using these oligonucleotides are also provided.
