Silica-coated calcium phosphate nanoparticles for gene silencing of NF- κB p65 by siRNA and their impact on cellular players of inflammation
Biomaterials. 2021 Jul 7;276:121013. doi: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2021.121013. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe transcription factor NF-κB and its signaling cascade both play key roles in all inflammatory processes. The most critical member of the NF-κB transcription factor family is p65. We investigated the role of cationic silica-coated calcium phosphate nanoparticles (spherical, diameter by SEM 50-60 nm; zeta potential about +26 mV; stabilized by polyethyleneimine) carrying encapsulated siRNA against NF-κB p65 and their influence on inflamed cells. The nanoparticles were taken up by cells of the blood compartment inv...
