Abstract
Oligomers for inhibiting expression of interleukin genes are described. It is believed that each oligomer, when introduced into a cell, is capable of forming a transcription-inhibiting complex composed of the oligomer and an interleukin gene. The oligomer preferably binds in the antiparallel orientation to the polypurine strand of a polypurine-polypyrimidine region of the interleukin gene.
