Small interfering RNA against BCR-ABL transcripts sensitize mutated T315I cells to nilotinib
Haematologica, 2010 Background Selective inhibition of the BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase by RNA interference has been demonstrated in leukemic cells. We, therefore, evaluated specific BCR-ABL small interfering RNA silencing in BCR-ABL-positive cell lines, including those ...

Polymers in Small-Interfering RNA Delivery [PDF]
Oligonucleotides, 2011 This review will cover the current strategies that are being adopted to efficiently deliver small interfering RNA using nonviral vectors, including the use of polymers such as polyethylenimine, poly(lactic- co -glycolic acid), polypeptides, chitosan, cyclodextrin, dendrimers, and polymers ...

Short Hairpin RNAs for Strand-Specific Small Interfering RNA Production
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 RNA interference (RNAi) is an effective mechanism for inhibiting gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Expression of a messenger RNA (mRNA) can be inhibited by a ∼22-nucleotide (nt) small interfering (si)RNA with the corresponding reverse ...

Therapeutic opportunities of small interfering RNA [PDF]
Fundamental & Clinical Pharmacology, 2009 AbstractFormation of small interfering RNA (siRNA) occurs in two steps involving binding of the RNA nucleases to a large double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) and its cleavage into fragments called siRNA. In the second step, these siRNAs join a multinuclease complex, which degrades the homologous single‐stranded mRNAs.

Effect of silencing on proliferation and apoptosis of melanoma cells: An in vivo and in vitro study
Tumor Biology, 2017 This study aimed to investigate the effect of SOCS1 silencing on the proliferation and apoptosis of melanoma cells by in vivo and in vitro studies. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect SOCS1 expression in melanoma tissues and pigmented nevi ...

The optimal concentration of siRNA for gene silencing in primary cultured astrocytes and microglial cells of rats [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2010 BackgroundSmall interfering RNAs (siRNAs) have been used to knockdown specific gene expression in various cells. Astrocytes and microglial cells play a key role in fundamental central nervous system functions and in chronic neuroinflammation. The aims of

Endogenous small interfering RNAs in animals [PDF]
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2008 Until recently, only nematodes among animals had a well-defined endogenous small interfering RNA (endo-siRNA) pathway. This has changed dramatically with the recent discovery of diverse intramolecular and intermolecular substrates that generate endo-siRNAs in Drosophila melanogaster and mice.

Therapeutic potential of small interfering RNAs/micro interfering RNA in hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]
World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2015 Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the predominant form of primary liver cancer and represents the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Current available therapeutic approaches are poorly effective, especially for the advanced forms of the disease.
