About this document
RNA Therapeutics: A New Gene Therapy Approach by Andi Zahriah Nurhidayah is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes RNA therapeutics, a new approach for gene therapy. It discusses how RNA can effectively silence gene expression in mammalian cells. RNA interference (RNAi) uses short interfering RNA (siRNA) or microRNA (miRNA) to degrade mRNA of target genes. Antisense RNA therapy works by binding to mRNA and blocking translation. The main challenge is delivering these RNA molecules into target cells. Viral vectors and liposomes are used, but more research is needed to develop effective delivery sy
