Abstract
Delivery of conventional antisense oligonucleotides or small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules into hematolymphoid cells for targeted gene silencing has been proven to be difficult. Here, we describe a simple protocol to knockdown specific gene(s) in malignant hematolymphoid cells using "GapmeR." This protocol could be applicable to a wide range of cell-types and thus solves an important problem for researchers working with cell lines or primary cells derived from patients with hematolymphoid malignancies.
