Anticancer therapy using a site-specific co-delivery
strategy.
SiRNA and phytochemicals can be coloaded on nanoparticles for promoting
their efficacy in cancer therapy. Encapsulation of siRNA in nanoparticles
protects against degradation. Nanoparticles enhance bioavailability
of natural products. Blood circulation time of siRNA and phytochemicals
increases by nanoparticles. Various nanoparticles, such as micelles,
liposomes, dendrimers, and polymeric nanoparticles can provide targeted
delivery of siRNA and phytochemicals at tumor site, leading to an
increase in their efficacy in apoptosis induction.
