Targeted delivery of small interfering RNA: approaching effective cancer therapies.
Three of the primary requirements for the development of effective dual-targeting therapeutic modalities for the treatment of cancer are the tumor-targeted delivery of the therapeutic molecules of interest to the tumor site(s) in the body (both primary and metastatic), passage of the molecular therapeutic through the cell membrane, and targeting specifically a growth or apoptotic pathway. Howev...
متن کاملFunctional 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 کاملDelivery of small interfering RNA by peptide-targeted mesoporous silica nanoparticle-supported lipid bilayers.
The therapeutic potential of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) is severely limited by the availability of delivery platforms that protect siRNA from degradation, deliver it to the target cell with high specificity and efficiency, and promote its endosomal escape and cytosolic dispersion. Here we report that mesoporous silica nanoparticle-supported lipid bilayers (or "protocells") exhibit multiple...
متن کاملRetroviral delivery of small interfering RNA into primary cells.
RNA interference is an evolutionarily conserved process in which recognition of double-stranded RNA ultimately leads to posttranscriptional suppression of gene expression. This suppression is mediated by short (21- to 22-nt) small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), which induce degradation of mRNA based on complementary base pairing. The silencing of gene expression by siRNAs is emerging rapidly as a p...
