Functional Nanostructures for Effective Delivery of Small Interfering RNA Therapeutics
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) has proved to be a powerful tool for target-specific gene silencing via RNA interference (RNAi). Its ability to control targeted gene expression gives new hope to gene therapy as a treatment for cancers and genetic diseases. However, siRNA shows poor pharmacological properties, such as low serum stability, off-targeting, and innate immune responses, which present a...
متن کاملSmall interfering RNA; principles, applications and challenges--
Gene silencing using RNAi (RNA interference), has recently been used as a successful laboratory technique in determining the function and control of gene expression and provides a wide range of applications in molecular biology and gene therapy. RNAi is a method of suppressing gene expression. In this direction, a single-stranded RNA molecule of about 21–23 nucleotides, called siRNA (small inte...
متن کاملA small interfering RNA targeting osteopontin as gastric cancer therapeutics.
It has been shown that Osteopontin (OPN) protein is overexpressed in the majority of gastric cancers and associated with its pathogenesis. To better understanding of the role of OPN, RNA interference (RNAi) was used to inhibit OPN expression in the human gastric cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. BGC-823, gastric cancer cell line, was stably transfected with OPN small interfering RNA (siRNA) pl...
متن کاملUnzipping and binding of small interfering RNA with single walled carbon nanotube: a platform for small interfering RNA delivery.
In an effort to design efficient platform for siRNA delivery, we combine all atom classical and quantum simulations to study the binding of small interfering RNA (siRNA) by pristine single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT). Our results show that siRNA strongly binds to SWCNT surface via unzipping its base-pairs and the propensity of unzipping increases with the increase in the diameter of the SWCNTs...
متن کاملDesign, simplified cloning, and in-silico analysis of multisite small interfering RNA-targeting cassettes
Multiple gene silencing is being required to target and tangle metabolic pathways in eukaryotes and researchers have to develop a subtle method for construction of RNA interference (RNAi) cassettes. Although, several vectors have been developed due to different screening and cloning strategies but still some potential limitations remain to be dissolved. Here, we worked out a simple cloning stra...
