Abstract:
As a novel and effective tool for gene function analysis, RNA interference (RNAi) technique has been developed rapidly and made great progress in mammalian cell studies. The mechanisms and experimental operation of RNAi in mammalian cells have become research hotspots, and RNAi mechanisms were supposed to be different from those in plant. In this paper, a review of RNAi mechanisms, the latest research progress and the experimental strategies of RNAi in mammalian cells were presented, including siRNA sequence design, siRNA delivery approaches and RNAi effect detection, so as to offer valuable references for RNAi studies.

RNA Interference
This process occurs naturally in cells, often through the activity of genomically-encoded microRNAs. Researchers can take advantage of this mechanism by introducing synthetic RNAs to deactivate specific genes for research or therapeutic purposes. For example, RNAi could be used...
