Herein, we document a self-assembling octyl-TPP tagged esculetin (Mito-Esc) as functionally active and as a novel small molecule siRNA delivery vector. While Mito-Esc itself induces selective breast cancer cell death, the amphiphilic nature of Mito-Esc delivers therapeutic siRNAs intracellularly without the need for any excipient to exacerbate the anti-proliferative effects.
