Lung cancer occurrence throughout the world and its unsatisfactory treatment has drawn significant attention from many medical agencies. A genomic approach utilizing siRNA against target gene may resolve this problem. Present investigation includes siRNA lipoplex formulation and its in-vitro characterisation in lung cancer cell line for intracellular uptake and cytotoxicity. Accumulation of siRNA inside the cell as well as less cytotoxicity of prepared carrier system signifies potential of prepared siRNA lipoplex in the treatment of lung cancer. |
