Article Synopsis
  • Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) show potential as nano-sized carriers for delivering therapeutic molecules like miRNA-196b-5p inhibitors, but more research is needed for their safe use.
  • The study synthesized and characterized Mg-Al-LDHs, testing their transfection efficiency and cytotoxicity in both thymic endothelial cells and Drosophila larvae, achieving a high transfection rate with no observed toxicity.
  • Results indicate that LDHs are stable, biocompatible, and effective for miRNA delivery, supporting their use in functional inhibition assays.
