Efficient down-regulation of CDK4 by novel lipid nanoparticle-mediated siRNA delivery.
BACKGROUND Inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinases 4 (CDK4) activity by Small-interfering RNA (siRNA) has been demonstrated as one of the promising approaches to treat cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS CDK4 siRNA was packaged in a lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-based delivery system that consists of an ionizable cationic lipid, helper lipid and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-lipid. The physical properties, i...
متن کاملInfluence of Cationic Lipid Composition on Gene Silencing Properties of Lipid Nanoparticle Formulations of siRNA in Antigen-Presenting Cells
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are currently the most effective in vivo delivery systems for silencing target genes in hepatocytes employing small interfering RNA. Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are also potential targets for LNP siRNA. We examined the uptake, intracellular trafficking, and gene silencing potency in primary bone marrow macrophages (bmMΦ) and dendritic cells of siRNA formulated in ...
متن کاملFormulation and optimization of a new cationic lipid-modified PLGA nanoparticle as delivery system for Mycobacterium tuberculosis HspX/EsxS fusion protein: An experimental design
Polymeric particles and liposomes are efficient tools to overcome the low immunogenicity of subunit vaccines. The aim of the present study was formulation and optimization of a new cationic lipid-modified PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) as a delivery system for Mycobacterium tuberculosis HspX/EsxS fusion protein. The cationic lipid-modified PLGA NPs containing HspX/EsxS fusion protein were prepared us...
متن کاملA novel therapeutic strategy for cartilage diseases based on lipid nanoparticle-RNAi delivery system
Background Cartilage degeneration affects millions of people but preventing its degeneration is a big challenge. Although RNA interference (RNAi) has been used in human trials via silencing specific genes, the cartilage RNAi has not been possible to date because the cartilage is an avascular and very dense tissue with very low permeability. Purpose The objective of this study was to develop a...
متن کاملPowering up the molecular therapy of RNA interference by novel nanoparticles.
RNA interference technology has been widely applied in biomedical therapy in recent years. A type of small RNA molecule - siRNA could regulate the expression of disease related genes by breaking down the integrity of mRNA with high specificity. However, the low efficiency of siRNA delivery to its target seriously hampered the RNAi therapy. Compared with viral-based delivery systems, non-viral-b...
