RNA interference (RNAi) response is triggered by small pieces of synthetic RNA. This holds great therapeutic potential to treat a number of diseases, especially cancer and pandemic viruses. The problem is delivery -- it is extremely difficult to get RNAi drugs inside the cells in which they are needed. To overcome this hurdle, researchers at University of California, San Diego School of Medicine have developed a way to chemically disguise RNAi drugs so that they are able to ...Tuesday 18 November 2014
RNAi Drug Delivery Transformed by Chemical Disguise
RNA interference (RNAi) response is triggered by small pieces of synthetic RNA. This holds great therapeutic potential to treat a number of diseases, especially cancer and pandemic viruses. The problem is delivery -- it is extremely difficult to get RNAi drugs inside the cells in which they are needed.
