Nanodelivery Systems for Nucleic Acid Therapeutics in Drug Resistant Tumors
Abstract
Development of intrinsic and acquired drug resistance in cancer is a significant clinical challenge for effective therapeutic outcomes. Multidrug resistance (MDR) in solid tumors is especially difficult to overcome due to the many different factors that influence clinically manifested refractory disease. Genetic profiling of MDR tumors can provide for more specific control through RNA interference (RNAi) therapy. However, there are multiple barriers to effective in vivo delivery of functional nucleic acid constructs, such as small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and micro RNAs (miRNAs or miRs). In this review, we have briefly described the principles and mechanisms based on the RNA interference phenomenon and the barriers to its successful clinical translation. The principles of active and passive tumor targeting using nanoparticles systems are also discussed. Furthermore, illustrative examples of miRNA, siRNA, and gene-drug combination delivery using nanoparticle systems that have shown promising potentials for the treatment of diseases such as MDR cancers are covered.

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.
