Investigating histidinylated highly branched poly(lysine) for siRNA delivery (2021)
Journal Article
Alazzo, A., Gumus, N., Gurnani, P., Stolnik, S., Rahman, R., Spriggs, K., & Alexander, C. (2022). Investigating histidinylated highly branched poly(lysine) for siRNA delivery. Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 10(2), 236-246. https://doi.org/10.1039/d1tb01793d

The temporary silencing of disease-associated genes utilising short interfering RNA (siRNA) is a potent and selective route for addressing a wide range of life limiting disorders. However, the few clinically approved siRNA therapies rely on lipid bas... Read More about Investigating histidinylated highly branched poly(lysine) for siRNA delivery.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common, malignant and aggressive brain tumour in adults. Despite the use of multimodal treatments, involving surgery, followed by concomitant radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the median survival for patients remains less...
