Abstract: Provided herein are methods for the treatment of liver cancer. These methods encompass the administration of a compound comprising a modified oligonucleotide, wherein the modified oligonucleotide is targeted to a miRNA. Also provided herein are compositions for the treatment of liver cancer. Such compositions include compounds comprising a modified oligonucleotide, wherein the modified oligonucleotide is targeted to a miRNA. Certain miRNAs have been identified as overexpressed in liver cancer, such as, for example, hepatocellular carcinoma, and are thus selected for targeting by modified oligonucleotides. Further, certain miRNAs have been identified as overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma cells exposed to dioxin, and are thus selected for targeting by modified oligonucleotides. Antisense inhibition of certain of these miRNAs has been found to inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis.

Abstract: The present invention provides compounds and methods for modulating expression of a protein, including, but not limited to, modulating splicing of a pre-mRNA to modulate the amount of one or more variants of a protein.

Abstract: Provided herein are antisense compounds and methods for recruiting one or more non-cleaving protein to a target nucleic acid in a cell. In certain instances such recruitment of a non-cleaving protein alters the function or activity of the target nucleic acid. In certain such instances, the target nucleic acid a pre-mRNA and the recruitment of the non-cleaving protein results in a change in splicing of the pre-mRNA.
