چکیده

The multifunctional DNAzyme (Dz) delivery system is developed based on nano-sized graphene oxide (nGO) for simultaneous detection and knockdown of the target gene. The Dz/nGO complex system allowed convenient monitoring of HCV mRNA in living cells and silencing of the HCV gene expression by Dz-mediated catalytic cleavage concurrently.

In vivo evaluation of the combination effect of near- infrared laser and PLGA polymer containing 5- fluorouracil – loaded Nano-graphene oxide

Introduction: Recently, nanographene oxide (NGO) is proven to be as a great candidate for drug delivery, and phototherapies cancer. Photothermal sensitivity of NGO and its optical absorption in the NIR region lead to photothermal ablation of tumors. Nevertheless, the major drawback of GO is its toxicity in biological systems, To overcome this problem, nanoscale GO prepare with...
