Abstract
Antisense oligomers (18 mers) corresponding to the erythropoietin and erythropoietin receptor 5' coding sequences cause marked suppression o f proliferation of several lines of erythroleukemic cells. In these sy stems, phosphorothioate protected sense oligomers are inhibitory, whil e the unmodified sense oligomers have no significant-effect on cell gr owth. These data indicate that proliferation of some erythroleukemic c ells is under internal autocrine regulation by erythropoietin and its receptor.
