abstract：:Enhancing the delivery of antisense and siRNA molecules to cells and tissues is a key issue for oligonucleotide therapeutics. Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) have the ability to convey linked "cargo" molecules into the cytosol; thus we have explored the use of CPPs as delivery agents for oligonucleotides. We have ext...
