RNA-loaded nanoparticles for the treatment of hematological cancers.

Hematological cancers encompass a diverse group of malignancies affecting the blood, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and spleen. These disorders present unique challenges due to their complex etiology and varied clinical manifestations. Despite significant advancements in understanding and treating hematological malignancies, innovative therapeutic approaches are continually sought to enhance patient outcomes.

Navigating the landscape of RNA delivery systems in cardiovascular disease therapeutics.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) stand as the leading cause of death worldwide, posing a significant global health challenge. Consequently, the development of innovative therapeutic strategies to enhance CVDs treatment is imperative. RNA-based therapies, encompassing non-coding RNAs, mRNA, aptamers, and CRISPR/Cas9 technology, have emerged as promising tools for addressing CVDs.

Lipid nanoparticles for siRNA delivery in cancer treatment.

RNA-based therapies, and siRNAs in particular, have attractive therapeutic potential for cancer treatment due to their ability to silence genes that are imperative for tumor progression. To be effective and solve issues related to their poor half-life and poor pharmacokinetic properties, siRNAs require adequate drug delivery systems that protect them from degradation and allow intracellular delivery. Among the various delivery vehicles available, lipid nanoparticles have emerged as the leading choice.

Cardiac tissue engineering for myocardial infarction treatment.

Myocardial infarction is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Current treatments can relieve the symptoms of myocardial ischemia but cannot repair the necrotic myocardial tissue. Novel therapeutic strategies based on cellular therapy, extracellular vesicles, non-coding RNAs and growth factors have been designed to restore cardiac function while inducing cardiomyocyte cycle re-entry, ensuring angiogenesis and cardioprotection, and preventing ventricular remodeling.
