1. A method of upregulating a function of and/or the expression of a Membrane Bound Transcription Factor Peptidase, site 1 (MBTPS1) poly in patient cells or tissues in vivo or in vitro comprising:
- contacting said cells or tissues with at least one antisense oligonucleotide 15 to 30 nucleotides in length wherein said at least one oligonucleotide is specific for and specifically hybridizes to a natural antisense polynucleotide of the MBTPS1 gene and has at least 80% sequence identity to a reverse complement of a polynucleotide comprising 15 to 30 nucleotides within nucleotides 1 to 1240 of SEQ ID NO;
2;
thereby upregulating a function of and/or the expression of the Membrane Bound Transcription Factor Peptidase, site 1 (MBTPS1) polynucleotide in patient cells or tissues in vivo or in vitro.

Abstract
The present invention relates to antisense oligonuclotides that modulate the expression of and/or function of Membrane Bound Transcription Factor Peptidase, site 1 (MBTPS1), in particular, by targeting natural antisense polynucleotides of Membrane Bound Transcription Factor Peptidase, site 1 (MBTPS1). The invention also relates to the identification of these antisense oligonucleotides and their use in treating diseases and disorders associated with the expression of MBTPS1.
