Ultrasound assisted siRNA delivery using PEG-siPlex loaded microbubbles [PDF]

, 2008
Short interfering RNA (siRNA) attracts much attention for the treatment of various diseases. However, its delivery, especially via systemic routes, remains a challenge. Indeed, naked siRNAs are rapidly degraded, while complexed siRNAs massively aggregate
