Surface Coating of Pulmonary siRNA Delivery Vectors Enabling Mucus Penetration, Cell Targeting, and Intracellular Radical Scavenging for Enhanced Acute Lung Injury Therapy

Pulmonary delivery of anti-inflammatory siRNA presents a promising approach for localized therapy of acute lung injury (ALI), while polycationic vectors can be easily trapped by the negatively charged airway mucin glycoproteins and arbitrarily internalized by epithelial cells with nontargetabilit…
