Formulation of glutathione responsive anti-proliferative nanoparticles from thiolated Akt1 siRNA and disulfide-crosslinked PEI for efficient anti-cancer gene therapy
In this study, thiol-modified siRNA (SH-siRNA) was delivered by bioreducible polyethylenimine (ssPEI), to enhance physicochemical properties of polyplexes and function of siRNA through disulfide bonding between SH-siRNA and ssPEI. The ssPEI was utilized to deliver Akt1 SH-siRNA for suppression of Akt1 mRNA and blockage of Akt1 protein translation, resulting in reduced cellular proliferation and the induction of apoptosis. Disulfide bondings between the ssPEI and SH-siRNA through thiol groups in both were confirmed by DTT treatment. Complexation between ssPEI and Akt1SH-siRNA was enhanced and reduced surface charge of ssPEI...

Knockdown of β-catenin by siRNA influences proliferation, apoptosis and invasion of the colon cancer cell line SW480.
Authors: Li K, Zhou ZY, Ji PP, Luo HS Abstract The aim of the present study was to explore the effect of knocking down the expression of β-catenin by small interference (si)RNA on the activity of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, and the proliferation, apoptosis and invasion abilities of the human colon cancer cell line SW480. For that purpose, double-stranded siRNA targeting β-catenin (β-catenin-siRNA) was synthesized and transfected into SW480 cells. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western blotting were used to detect the messenger (m)RNA and protein levels of β-catenin in SW4...

Synthesis of a stabilized 177Lu–siRNA complex and evaluation of its stability and RNAi activity
In this study, the effects of PS and 2′-O-Me modifications at the backbone of siRNA on serum stability and RNA interference activity were investigated. Materials and methods: Fully PS and 2′-O-Me-modified type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) siRNA was radiolabeled with lutetium-177 (177Lu) through p-SCN-Bn-DTPA as a chelator. After purification with Vivaspin and PD-10 columns, the radiolabs were examined for stability in serum by instant thin-layer chromatography and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The level of IGF-1R in response to the modified and labeled IGF-1R siRNA was examined using RT-PCR and ...

Oral siRNA Delivery Using Dual Transporting Systems to Efficiently Treat Colorectal Liver Metastasis
Publication date: Available online 3 November 2018Source: International Journal of PharmaceuticsAuthor(s): Eun-Ju Hyun, Mohammad Nazmul Hasan, Sung Hun Kang, Sungpil Cho, Yong-Kyu LeeAbstractOral siRNA delivery is an ideal way to translate siRNA therapeutic effects in the clinic due to its ability to be administered in convenient and multiple dosages. However, an effective oral delivery system requires overcoming both a hostile gastrointestinal (GI) environment and non-specific targeting. Here, an HTsRP-NC system is a new oral siRNA delivery system consisting of a siRNA/protamine (sRP) nano-complex protected by a multi-fun...

Nek2 siRNA therapy using a portal venous port –catheter system for liver metastasis in pancreatic cancer
In this study, the overexpression of Nek2 was identified in pancreatic cancer cell lines. Nek2 siRNA inhibited tumor growth in a subcutaneous xenograft mouse model of pancreatic cancer, prolonged the survival time in an intraperitoneal xenograft mouse model and efficiently prevented the progression of liver metastasis using a portal venous port–catheter system. Taken together, Nek2 is an effective therapeutic target in pancreatic cancer. An adequate delivery system is considered important in treating advanced pancreatic cancer, such as peritoneal dissemination and liver metastasis. Further investigations are required on ...

Potential of siRNA-albumin complex against cancer.
Abstract RNA interference is a highly specific as well as efficient technology for gene therapy application in molecular oncology. The present study was planned to develop an efficient and stable tumor selective delivery mechanism for siRNA gene therapy for the purpose of both diagnosis as well as therapy. We have used 20 Male wistar rats for the formation of colon cancer model and utilized albumin as carrier molecule for the delivery of siRNA against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGF R2). The study results confirmed efficient delivery of siRNA at tumor site as confirmed by tagging of siRNA-album...

Precision delivery of RAS-inhibiting siRNA to KRAS driven cancer via peptide-based nanoparticles.
Authors: Strand MS, Krasnick BA, Pan H, Zhang X, Bi Y, Brooks C, Wetzel C, Sankpal N, Fleming T, Goedegebuure SP, DeNardo DG, Gillanders WE, Hawkins WG, Wickline SA, Fields RC Abstract Over 95% of pancreatic adenocarcinomas (PDACs), as well as a large fraction of other tumor types, such as colorectal adenocarcinoma, are driven by KRAS activation. However, no direct RAS inhibitors exist for cancer therapy. Furthermore, the delivery of therapeutic agents of any kind to PDAC in particular has been hindered by the extensive desmoplasia and resultant drug delivery challenges that accompanies these tumors. Small interfer...

Abstract 3903: A sub-set of DCLK1+ve colon cancer stem cells (CSCs) survive curcumin induced autophagy, while co-treatment with curcumin +DCLK1-siRNA eliminates CSCs: Role of long and short isofoms of DCLK1
Conclusion. Our studies strongly suggest that, 1) DCLK1 represents a functional protein for colon cancers, 2) combination of curcumin+DCLK1-siRNA may target and eradicate colon cancer stem cells., and 3) identifying small molecules that inhibit expression of S-isoform may allow to specifically target cancer stem cells, while sparing normal stem cells for cancer treatment purposes.
