In vivo targeted gene transfer into liver cells mediated by a novel galactosyl-D-lysine/D-serine copolymer.

abstract：:RNA interference (RNAi) is an evolutionarily conserved process by which plants and animals protect their genomes utilizing small, double-stranded RNAs to degrade target RNAs in a sequence-specific manner. Post-transcriptional gene silencing by these moieties can lead to degradation of both cellular and viral RNAs. It ...
