It has been confirmed that changes in the expression of various genes are important factors associated with the occurrence and development of pancreatic cancer. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are 21-25nt ribonucleotides that target specific DNA sequences and reduce their expression levels. An siRNA delivery system is required as a common and effective method for cancer treatment. Silencing the expression of critical genes (K-Ras, GJB4, SIX4, RARγ, etc) via siRNAs can effectively block the development of pancreatic cancer or even reverse its progression. Moreover, siRNAs can improve the efficacy of clinical chemotherapeutic drugs (doxorubicin, paclitaxel, docetaxel, gemcitabine) by reducing drug-resistance-related genes. Additionally, siRNAs are a valid approach to enhance the effectiveness of immunotherapy.

Although metabolic regulators hold therapeutic promise, their efficacy is limited by poor site-specific delivery and bioavailability. Nanotechnology-based platforms (e.g. liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles (NPs), nanoemulsions and metal NPs) address these barriers by enhancing bioavailability and forming a protein corona that modulates NP uptake by macrophages and T cells, directly influencing metabolic fate. Advanced organelle-targeting strategies such as mitochondria-directed liposomes and lysosome-responsive polymers enable precise metabolic rescue by restoring mitochondrial respiration or modulating nutrient-sensing pathways. By targeting key metabolic nodes including HIF-1α, mTOR and AMPK, nanocarriers actively shift immune cells from pro-inflammatory glycolysis towards anti-inflammatory oxidative phosphorylation, minimising toxicity and restoring immune homeostasis. Thus, nanocarriers function not as passive delivery vehicles but as sophisticated immunometabolism modulators.
