Definitions

  • the instant invention provides for a method for treating type I diabetes comprising intervention of interferon alpha activity.
  • the instant invention encompasses methods for treating early type I diabetes comprising administering an effective inhibitory amount of an antisense oligonucleotide directed to the mRNA encoding for interferon- ⁇ . Effective inhibition encompasses the complete or partial inhibition of transcription of the interferon alpha gene, or complete or partial inhibition of translation of the interferon alpha mRNA transcript.
  • spontaneously diabetic BB rats are another model system by which early intervention to prevent the effects of interferon, as a means of preventing the development of diabetes can be tested where there is a demonstrated genetic predisposition to develop diabetes.
  • the leftward boundary of the promoter is always upstream of the TATA box, a ubiquitous sequence of 7 or 8 bp that lies usually about 20 to 30 bp upstream from the starting point of transc ⁇ ption (Wagner R., Nature (1964) 204, 49).
  • Functional IFN mRNA cannot be extracted from unmduced cells. Transc ⁇ ption starts early after induction, the actual time being a function of the inducer-cell system studied. When human lymphoblastoid Namalwa cells are treated with the Sendai virus, IFN ⁇ and IFN ⁇ are produced (Havell E. et al., J. Gen. Virol. (1977) 38, 51).
  • the antisense molecule can be a native nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) or a modified nucleic acid.
  • modified antisense molecules one can use a phosphorothioate, a methylphosphonate, a PNA (Peptide Nucleic Acid), or any of the modifications commonly practiced ( see Crooke R.M. "In vitro toxicology and pharmacokinetics of antisense oligonucleotides, " 1991 , Anti-Cancer Drug Design, 6, 609-646.)
  • the main goal would be to utilize the transgenic techniques or the gene therapy for creating insulin producing cells to demonstrate the transfer the genes necessary to induce an insulin production in cells not used by the organism to produce insulin from said kind of cells.
  • the insulin gene may be dormant in the cell being used for the gene transfer and thereby the gene transfer would be to operably introduce the regulatory region of the insulin gene in order to create the insulin production. What is yet to be learned is whether the insulin gene composition necessary for the cell to excrete insulin otherwise would be present, and/or whether other gene products necessary for an actual production and excretion of insulin from the cell would be possible.
