Knocking down barriers: advances in siRNA delivery 2009 .txt text/plain 6655 391 42 Three years later, Tuschl and co-workers published their celebrated proof-of-principle experiment demonstrating that synthetic small interfering RNA (siRNA) could achieve sequence-specific gene knockdown in a mammalian cell line 2 . Toxicity of certain cationic lipid particles has been reported both in vitro and in vivo [76] [77] [78] , and certain synthetic agents have been found to induce a gene signature of their own that might increase the off-target effects of siRNA 79, 80 . Tumour growth in a mouse model of metastatic Ewing's sarcoma was shown to be inhibited by the systemic delivery of nanoparticles formed by cyclodextrin, the targeting ligand transferrin, and siRNA specific for the EWS-FLI1 fusion gene commonly associated with the condition.
