- *Abstract
-
Currently, many siRNA delivery technologies are available. However, it is extremely challenging to use these technologies for various therapeutic applications. Some of the most common challenges are associated with effective and non-toxic delivery of siRNA to the site of action, as well as effective transfection into the target cells. Degradation by endogenous enzymes, large size and high negative charge are some of the major issues associated with siRNAs. This invention discloses a novel nano-preparation for co-delivery of drugs and siRNA moieties.
