In vitro and in vivo evaluation of the efficacy of nanoformulation of siRNA as an adjuvant to improve the anticancer potential of cisplatin.

With the advent of advanced tools in molecular biology, understanding on cancer etiology has improved. siRNA can be considered as an effective tool in cancer therapy through silencing overexpressed genes responsible for cell proliferation or preventing apoptosis. However, some contentious issues such as stability and delivery of siRNA are to be resolved.
