Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we developed a ultra-small nanocarrier, termed uint polyion complex (uPIC), for cancer-targeted oligonucleotide delivery. Fine-tuning of the length and shape of block copolymers allowed for the formation of ~18 nm-sized uPICs in aqueous media. The uPICs efficiently accumulated in murine models of pancreatic cancer and brain tumor, leading to the significantly enhanced antitumor efficacy.
