Abstract excerpt
We describe a technique to define gene function using antisense oligonucleotide (AS-ODN) inhibition of gene expression in mice. A single intravenous injection of an AS-ODN targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) into pregnant mice between E7.5-8.5 resulted in a lack of primary angiogenesis. This enabled us to define the critical window required to inhibit VEGF expression and recapitulate the primary...
