Abstract
Glioma is the most common malignant tumor in the central nervous system. Currently, common clinical treatments for glioma include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy, among which the combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy has attracted wide attention. However, the ability of chemotherapeutic agents and immune checkpoint blockers to reach gliomas is limited due to the existence of blood brain/tumor barrier (BBB/BTB). RNA interference (RNAi) technology enables specific silencing of target genes associated with cancer therapy, so it has been used as an emerging potential cancer treatment strategy. However, Small interference RNA (siRNA) is easily degraded by serum endonuclease, which can be quickly filtered and cleared by the glomerulus. Therefore, design and construction of safe and effective delivery systems is conducive to improving the stability of siRNA and the efficiency of gene silencing. This review focuses on the research progress of nano delivery system based on RNA interference for glioma treatment.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Cancer Research (AJCR) (ISSN 2156-6976), is an independent open access, online only journal to facilitate rapid dissemination of novel discoveries in basic science and treatment of cancer. It was founded by a group of scientists for cancer research and clinical academic oncologists from around the world, who are devoted to the promotion and advancement of our understanding of the cancer and its treatment. The scope of AJCR is intended to encompass that of multi-disciplinary researchers from any scientific discipline where the primary focus of the research is to increase and integrate knowledge about etiology and molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis with the ultimate aim of advancing the cure and prevention of this increasingly devastating disease. To achieve these aims AJCR will publish review articles, original articles and new techniques in cancer research and therapy. It will also publish hypothesis, case reports and letter to the editor. Unlike most other open access online journals, AJCR will keep most of the traditional features of paper print that we are all familiar with, such as continuous volume, issue numbers, as well as continuous page numbers to retain our comfortable familiarity towards an academic journal.
