Investigation intracellular trafficking of siRNAs following their delivery to cells is of great interest to elucidate dynamics of siRNA in cytoplasm. In this study, we present a novel confocal laser scanning microscopy(CLSM) method to evaluate a novel delivery system of 3′-peptide-siRNA therapeutic, which was named 3′-p As-siRNA/CLD. This method could not only calculate the content of the intracellular 3′-peptide-siRNA, but also quantify its co-localization with cellular substructure. We observed that 3′-p ...

1.Introduction
Small interfering RNAs(si RNAs)have been proved to be the main effectors of RNA interference induced in mammalian cells[1].si RNAs can efficiently silence target gene expression in a sequence-specific manner,thus they have been used in di
