A general method for gene knockdown in mice by using lentiviral vectors expressing small interfering RNA.
We describe the use of lentiviral vectors expressing small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to knock down the expression of specific genes in vitro and in vivo. A lentiviral vector capable of generating siRNA specific for GFP after transduction of 293T-GFP cell lines showed no GFP fluorescence. Furthermore, no GFP-specific RNA could be detected. When eggs from GFP-positive transgenic mice were transdu...
متن کاملAnalysis of C5a-mediated chemotaxis by lentiviral delivery of small interfering RNA.
Immune cells respond to chemotactic signals by means of G protein-coupled receptors. Attempts to elucidate the function of specific G protein family members in these responses is complicated by redundancy among the different G protein isoforms. We have used lentiviral-based RNA interference to eliminate expression of specific G protein subunits selectively in J774A.1 mouse macrophages. The chem...
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 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...
