Abstract
Antisense oligonucleotides specific for the vav proto-oncogene inhibit the proliferation of malignant, but not normal, myeloid cells. The oligonucleotides are therefore useful in the treatment of leukemias, in particular, as bone marrow purging agents. The vav antisense oligonucleotides also selectively inhibit the formation of erythroid cell colonies without effect on megakaryocyte and granulocyte/macrophage colony formation. The oligonucleotides are therefore useful in treating disorders characterized by an elevated hematocrit due to overproduction of erythrocytes.
