Abstract:
Six cationic lipidoid fluorodendrimers are synthesized to construct hybrid lipid-polymer nanoparticles for siRNA delivery. By screening the nanoplatforms including fluorodendrimers with different chemical structures, the optimized nanoparticle NPF13-5 mediates the most efficient silencing of prohibitin 1, inhibition of cell proliferation, and induction of cell apoptosis towards A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells.
