Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The chemical structure of the shell molecule in core-shell type nanoparticle is important for regulating biodistribution of the nanoparticle. In this regard, the functionality of the conventional shell molecule is often restricted to stealth ability. Thus, in this study, a new type of shell molecule that facilitates cellular uptake of the nanoparticle in tumorous acidic condition was developed. Consequently, the nanoparticle loading siRNA as an anticancer reagent achieved enhanced cellular uptake efficacy in response to tumorous acidic condition, followed by the potent medicinal effect.
