RNA interference targeting Fas protects mice from fulminant hepatitis

TL;DR: In a more fulminant hepatitis induced by injecting agonistic Fas-specific antibody, 82% of mice treated with siRNA that effectively silenced Fas survived for 10 days of observation, whereas all control mice died within 3 days.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antibody mediated in vivo delivery of small interfering RNAs via cell-surface receptors

TL;DR: The potential for systemic, cell-type specific, antibody-mediated siRNA delivery to HIV-infected or envelope-transfected cells is demonstrated and an ErbB2 single-chain antibody fused with protamine delivered siRNAs specifically into ErBB2-expressing cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

siRNA-directed inhibition of HIV-1 infection.

TL;DR: It is reported that siRNAs inhibit virus production by targeting the mRNAs for either the HIV-1 cellular receptor CD4, the viral structural Gag protein or green fluorescence protein substituted for the Nef regulatory protein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sustained Small Interfering RNA-Mediated Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Inhibition in Primary Macrophages

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated if sustained siRNA-mediated silencing of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is possible in terminally differentiated macrophages, which constitute an important reservoir of HIV in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interfering with disease: opportunities and roadblocks to harnessing RNA interference

TL;DR: RNAi could provide an exciting new therapeutic modality for treating infection, cancer, neurodegenerative disease and other illnesses, and can inhibit viral infection and control tumor cell growth in vitro.
