Gold-installed biostable nanocomplexes for tumor-targeted siRNA delivery in vivo.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The key issues, associated with nanocarriers for small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), are their poor stability and lack of tumor targetability in vivo. To address these issues, we developed gold-installed polyethyleneimine/siRNA complexes with a corona of PEGylated hyaluronic acid.

Objective(s): P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an efflux protein, the overexpression of which has been associated with multidrug resistance in various cancers. Although siRNA delivery to reverse P-gp expression may be promising for sensitizing of tumor cells to cytotoxic drugs, the therapeutic use of siRNA requires effective carriers that can deliver siRNA intracellularly with minimal toxicity on targe...
متن کاملA nanocomplex that is both tumor cell-selective and cancer gene-specific for anaplastic large cell lymphoma
BACKGROUND Many in vitro studies have demonstrated that silencing of cancerous genes by siRNAs is a potential therapeutic approach for blocking tumor growth. However, siRNAs are not cell type-selective, cannot specifically target tumor cells, and therefore have limited in vivo application for siRNA-mediated gene therapy. RESULTS In this study, we tested a functional RNA nanocomplex which excl...

Small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapeutics have broad potential uses in medicine but require safe and effective delivery vehicles to function. An ideal delivery system should encapsulate and protect the siRNA cargo from serum proteins, exhibit target tissue and cell specificity, penetrate the cell surface, and release its cargo in the desired intracellular compartment. One approach to the desig...

Nanoparticulate systems have shown great promise in overcoming the considerable trafficking barriers associated with systemic nucleic acid delivery, which must be addressed to unlock the full potential of technologies such as RNAi and gene editing in vivo. In addition to mediating the cytoplasmic delivery of nucleic cargo and shielding it from nuclease degradation and immunostimulation, nucleic...
متن کاملA novel albumin nanocomplex containing both small interfering RNA and gold nanorods for synergetic anticancer therapy.
Therapeutic nanocomplexes have been extensively developed for the effective treatment of aggressive cancers because of their outstanding versatility, easy manipulation, and low cytotoxicity. In this study, we describe the synthesis of a novel bovine serum albumin (BSA)-based nanocomplex harboring both Bcl-2-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) and gold (Au) nanorods (siRNA and rods encapsulat...
