Abstract

Next-generation antisense technologies are re-emerging as viable and powerful approaches to the treatment of several genetic diseases. Similar strategies are also being applied to cancer therapy. Reprogramming of the expression of endogenous oncogenic products to replace them with functional antagonists, by interfering with alternative splicing (AS) or polyadenylation, provides a promising novel approach to address acquired drug resistance and previously undruggable targets.
