Development of Protein Based PCBP2 siRNA Nanocomplex for Liver Fibrosis Therapy
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2018)
The objective of this dissertation is to develop a protein-based siRNA
nanocomplex for the treatment of alcoholic liver fibrosis. Our laboratory recently
discovered that silencing the poly (rC) binding protein 2 (PCBP2) ...
Evaluation of therapeutic effect of IKK epsilon SiRNA on breast cancer cells and development of a peptide-based SiRNA delivery system
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012)
The objective of this dissertation is to develop siRNA-based cancer therapeutics. In
chapters 1 and 2, we introduced the mechanism, challenge and promise of RNAi-based
therapy, as well as various siRNA delivery systems. ...
Discovery of PSMA-Specific Peptide Ligands and Development of A Noncovalent Method to Attach Chemical Moieties to siRNA
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2017)
The objective of this dissertation is to discover PSMA (Prostate Specific Membrane
Antigen)-specific peptide ligands using phage display and employ peptide nucleic acid as
a complementary linker to attach chemical ...
