Cyclic Peptide-Capped Gold Nanoparticles for Enhanced siRNA Delivery

Cyclic Peptide-Capped Gold Nanoparticles for Enhanced siRNA Delivery

Previously, we have reported the synthesis of a homochiral l-cyclic peptide [WR]5 and its use for delivery of anti-HIV drugs and biomolecules. A physical mixture of HAuCl4 and the peptide generated peptide-capped gold nanoparticles. Here, [WR]5 and [WR]5-AuNPs were tested for their efficiency to del...
