Abstract:Systemic delivery of nucleic acids to the central nervous system (CNS) is a major challenge for the development of RNA interference-based therapeutics due to absence of stability, target specificity, non-permeability to the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and mainly due to lack of suitable carriers. Using a designed bi-functional fusion protein TARBP-BTP, very recently we demonstrated knockdown of target genes in the brain of both AbPP-PS1 (Alzheimer's disease, AD) and wildtype C57BL/6 mice upon systemic delivery o… Show more
