targeting human telomerase reverse transcriptase by a simple sirna expression cassette in hepg2 cells
background human telomerase reverse transcriptase (htert) has become an ideal target for development of anticancer therapy. small interfering rnas (sirnas) are very powerful reagents for gene silencing and show promise for cancer gene therapy. however, only a small number of sirnas have been demonstrated to be effective. for gene therapy targeting htert, it is essential to develop a robust syst...
متن کاملsiRNA Delivery Improvement by Co-formulation of Different Modified Polymers in Erythroleukemic Cell Line K562
Objective(s): siRNA may be a very promising tool for treatment of various diseases especially in cancer therapy due to high specificity. One of the main hurdles applications of siRNAs in vivo is optimization of the delivery strategy, especially the carrier systems. The aim of this study was to optimize siRNA delivery into suspended erythroleukemic cell line K562. Materials and Methods: We appli...
متن کاملPANCREATIC CANCER Variants of bcl-2 specific siRNA for silencing antiapoptotic bcl-2 in pancreatic cancer
Background and aims: Pancreatic cancer remains a devastating diagnosis with only limited therapeutic options. Specific inhibition of expression of target genes has become possible using small interfering (si) RNAs. We therefore investigated how far siRNA specific for bcl-2 may serve as a therapeutic option for pancreatic cancer in vitro and in vivo. Methods: siRNAs targeting two different regio...

متن کاملCombination silencer RNA (siRNA) targeting Bcl-2 antagonizes siRNA against thymidylate synthase in human tumor cell lines.
Nonspecific toxicity and resistance to traditional cytotoxic drugs are impediments to effective cancer therapy. Development of drugs targeting cellular molecules that mediate malignant characteristics may improve therapy. Antisense drugs that reduce mRNA and protein on which tumor cells depend for viability and treatment resistance are examples of such candidates. In particular, combining antis...
