“Nonspecific toxicity is a common problem associated with in vivo application of antisense oligonucleotides.However, by employing certain strategies including the use of partial rather than complete phosphorothioate modification, reducing the length of the oligonucleotide, and using a steady continuous infusion rather than bolus injections, we were able to minimize such toxicity (Van Kampen & Stoessl, 2000a).” (p. 309) Van Kampen et al., Neuroscience 2003;116:307-314.
