Cyclic peptide-capped gold nanoparticles for enhanced siRNA delivery.
Previously, we have reported the synthesis of a homochiral l-cyclic peptide [WR]5 and its use for delivery of anti-HIV drugs and biomolecules. A physical mixture of HAuCl4 and the peptide generated peptide-capped gold nanoparticles. Here, [WR]5 and [WR]5-AuNPs were tested for their efficiency to deliver a small interfering RNA molecule (siRNA) in human cervix adenocarcinoma (HeLa) cells. Flow c...
متن کاملAdvances in Lipid Nanoparticles for siRNA Delivery
Technological advances in both siRNA (small interfering RNA) and whole genome sequencing have demonstrated great potential in translating genetic information into siRNA-based drugs to halt the synthesis of most disease-causing proteins. Despite its powerful promises as a drug, siRNA requires a sophisticated delivery vehicle because of its rapid degradation in the circulation, inefficient accumu...
متن کاملMultifunctional PEI-entrapped gold nanoparticles enable efficient delivery of therapeutic siRNA into glioblastoma cells.
RNA interference (RNAi) has been considered as a promising strategy for effective treatment of cancer. However, the easy degradation of small interfering RNA (siRNA) limits its extensive applications in gene therapy. For safe and effective delivery of siRNA, a novel vector system possessing excellent biocompatibility, highly efficient transfection efficiency and specific targeting properties ha...
متن کاملMMP-Responsive, Proximity-activated Targeting Polymeric Nanoparticles for siRNA Delivery
SUMMARY A smart polymeric nanoparticle (SPN) with matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) dependent proximityactivated targeting (PAT) has been designed and tested for targeted intracellular siRNA delivery to MMP-7 overexpressing tissues (i.e., tumor metastases). With this novel PAT-SPN design, a removable PEG corona mitigates cytotoxicity and nonspecific uptake in normal tissues. Exposure to MMP (i...
متن کاملCalcium phosphate nanoparticles-based systems for siRNA delivery
Despite the enormous therapeutic potential of siRNA as a treatment strategy, the delivery is still a problem due to unfavorable biodistribution profiles and poor intracellular bioavailability. Calcium phosphate (CaP) co-precipitate has been used for nearly 40 years for in vitro transfection due to its non-toxic nature and simplicity of preparation. The surface charge of CaP will be tuned into p...
