Conjugate for efficient delivery of short interfering RNA (siRNA) into mammalian cells

Open access

Abstract

The efficient delivery of short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) into cells provides a powerful approach to study cellular functions. SiRNAs were coupled to the membrane permeant peptides (MPPs) penetratin and transportan to improve their uptake by cells. Thiol‐containing siRNAs corresponding to luciferase, or green fluorescent protein (GFP) transgenes, were synthesized and conjugated to penetratin or transportan via a disulfide bond that is labile in the reducing environment of the cytoplasm. These MPP‐siRNAs efficiently reduced transient and stable expression of reporter transgenes in several mammalian cell types in a high proportion of cells, and demonstrated equivalent or better delivery characteristics than cationic liposomes with fewer manipulations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
