Gold nanoclusters-assisted delivery of NGF siRNA for effective treatment of pancreatic cancer
Nerve growth factor (NGF) contributes to the sustained growth and metastasis of pancreatic cancer cells. Here, the authors develop a gold nanocluster-coupled siRNA against NGF that efficiently silences theNGFgene and inhibits tumour growth of pancreatic cancer in mice.
