Abstract

This chapter describes the use of locked nucleic acid (LNA) GapmeRs for the in vivo knockdown of specific mRNAs in the mouse liver and phenotype analysis. LNA GapmeRs may be tested for efficacy by transfection in cultured cells. They are delivered into mice in vivo by intravenous tail injection.
