Abstract: Antisense oligonucleotides for treating and/or preventing at least one of asthma, allergy, hypereosinophilia, general inflammation and cancer are provided. The oligonucleotides are directed against nucleic acid sequences coding for a receptor selected from the group consisting of a CCR3 receptor and a common sub-unit of IL-3, IL-5 and GM-CSF receptors.

Abstract: The invention relates to therapeutic antisense oligonucleotides directed against genes coding for phosphodiesterase (PDEs) and the use of these in combination. These antisense oligonucleotides may be used as analytical tools and/or as therapeutic agents in the treatment of disease associated with reduced cellular cAMP in a patient, such as inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract including, for example, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), acute respiratory distress syndrome, bronchitis, chronic bronchitis, silicosis, pulmonary fibrosis, lung allograft rejection, allergic rhinitis and chronic sinusitis as well as other conditions in which an increase in cyclic AMP or a decrease in PDE levels is beneficial.

Abstract: Methods, reagents and compositions for the treatment, prevention and diagnotic of virus infections in vertebrates and more paticularly in human and animals are described. The invention provides evidence that the CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5 and CCR8 receptors are involved in human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections. Therefore, the present invention describes methods for modulation of cellular viral infection by modulating a binding interaction between a CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5 and/or CCR8 receptor and a surface protein of the virus.
