"Smart" Nanoparticles Enhance the Cytoplasmic Delivery of Anti-RhoC Silencing RNA and Inhibit the Migration and Invasion of Aggressive Breast Cancer Cells.

abstract：:Cholestasis is a significant risk factor for immediate hepatic failure due to ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury in patients undergoing liver surgery or transplantation. We recently demonstrated that inhibition of Hedgehog (Hh) signaling with cyclopamine (CYA) before I/R prevents liver injury. In this study we hypothes...
