“…They act as a stimulant that reduces the production and amounts of cellular components such as RNA and proteins. 104,105 Small interfering RNA (siRNA) is a well-known nucleic acid that improves gene function by silencing or interrupting gene activities. Effective delivery of siRNA to target cells is possible using nano-structured delivery systems 106 and thus, siRNA carrying nanosystems can be used for the treatment of various diseases, especially cancer.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
