Cervical epithelial-specific delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA); potential therapy for cervical carcinoma

KNA interference (RNAi) is a ubiquitous gene silencing mechanism, in which small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) guide sequence-specific cleavage of mRNA transcripts. Since naked siRNAs are inefficiently internalised by mammalian cells, successful delivery of siRNA to target cells is the biggest challenge...

Cervical epithelial-specific delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA); potential therapy for cervical carcinoma
description KNA interference (RNAi) is a ubiquitous gene silencing mechanism, in which small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) guide sequence-specific cleavage of mRNA transcripts. Since naked siRNAs are inefficiently internalised by mammalian cells, successful delivery of siRNA to target cells is the biggest challenge for therapeutic application.
