Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Nicolisha Narainpersad"

  • Nicolisha Narainpersad's research primarily focuses on the development of targeted delivery systems for short interfering RNA (siRNA) and DNA using liposomes for potential therapeutic applications in liver-related diseases.
  • In her studies, she investigates the design of liposomes that can selectively deliver therapeutic agents to hepatocytes, utilizing receptors such as the asialoglycoprotein receptor which is highly expressed in liver cells.
  • Her findings highlight the successful formulation of novel lipid compounds into pegylated cationic liposomes, demonstrating their ability to enhance targeted gene delivery to hepatoma cells, thus providing promising avenues for treating metabolic and viral disorders.
