The present embodiments provide methods, compounds, and compositions for treating, preventing, or ameliorating a disease associated with dysregulation of the complement alternative pathway by administering a Complement Factor B (CFB) specific inhibitor to a subject.

Modulators of Complement Factor B

The present embodiments provide methods, compounds, and compositions for treating, preventing, ameliorating, or slowing progression of retinitis pigmentosa (RP), such as autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (AdRP) by administering a P23H rhodopsin specific inhibitor to a subject. The present embodiments provided herein are directed to compounds and compositions useful for treating, preventing, ameliorating, or slowing progression of retinitis pigmentosa (RP), such as autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (AdRP). In certain embodiments, P23H rhodopsin inhibitors provided herein are allele-specific antisense compounds targeted to a P23H mutant allele that are capable of selectively inhibiting expression of P23H rhodopsin mutant protein to a greater extent than wild-type protein. In certain embodiments, administration of the allele specific antisense compounds in a subject having AdRP results in selective inhibition of P23H rhodopsin and allows the normal protein produced from the wild-type allele to maintain rod survival and function in the subject.

Compositions and methods for modulating complement factor B expression

Disclosed herein are methods for decreasing A1AT mRNA and protein expression and treating, ameliorating, preventing, slowing progression, or stopping progression of fibrosis. Disclosed herein are methods for decreasing A1AT mRNA and protein expression and treating, ameliorating, preventing, slowing progression, or stopping progression of liver disease, such as, A1ATD associated liver disease, and pulmonary disease, such as, A1ATD associated pulmonary disease in an individual in need thereof. Methods for inhibiting A1AT mRNA and protein expression can also be used as a prophylactic treatment to prevent individuals at risk for developing a liver disease, such as, A1ATD associated liver disease and pulmonary disease, such as, A1ATD associated pulmonary disease.

Methods and compositions for modulating alpha-1 antitrypsin expression

Disclosed herein are antisense compounds and methods for decreasing HBV mRNA, DNA and protein expression. Such methods, compounds, and compositions are useful to treat, prevent, or ameliorate HBV-related diseases, disorders or conditions.

Modulation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) expression

Disclosed herein are methods for decreasing AIAT mRNA and protein expression and treating, ameliorating, preventing, slowing progression, or stopping progression of fibrosis. Disclosed herein are methods for decreasing AIAT mRNA and protein expression and treating, ameliorating, preventing, slowing progression, or stopping progression of liver disease, such as, AIATD associated liver disease, and pulmonary disease, such as, AIATD associated pulmonary disease in an individual in need thereof. Methods for inhibiting AIAT mRNA and protein expression can also be used as a prophylactic treatment to prevent individuals at risk for developing a liver disease, such as, AIATD associated liver disease and pulmonary disease, such as, AIATD associated pulmonary disease.

Methods and compositions for modulating alpha-1-antitrypsin expression

Provided herein are methods, compounds, and compositions for reducing expression of fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) mRNA and protein in an animal. Such methods, compounds, and compositions are useful to treat, prevent, delay, or ameliorate a metabolic disease, or a symptom thereof.
