Abstract
Gene therapy has emerged as an alternative in the treatment of cancer, particularly in cases of resistance to chemo and radiotherapy. Different approaches to deliver genetic material to tumor tissues have been proposed, including the use of small non-coding RNAs due to their multiple mechanisms of action. However, such promise has shown limits in in vivo application related to RNA's biological instability and stimulation of immunity, urging the development of systems able to overcome those barriers. In this review, we discuss the use of RNA interference in cancer therapy with special attention to the role of siRNA and miRNA and to the challenges of their delivery in vivo. We introduce a promising class of drug delivery system known as micelle-like nanoparticles and explore their synthesis and advantages for gene therapy as well as the recent findings in in vitro, in vivo and clinical studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate osteogenic effect of collagen/bioglass composites loaded with a small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting noggin. METHODS The collagen/bioglass composites loaded with the negative control siRNA or noggin siRNA were prepared by freeze-drying method. CCK8 test was used to evaluate the proliferation of MC3T3 cells exposed to the aqueous extracts of collagen/bioglass composites and the siRNA-loaded collagen/bioglass composites. ALP activity assay, quantitative real-time PCR and Alizarin Red staining were used to assess the effect of the 3 composites on mineralization in MC3T3 cells. RESULTS MC3T3 cells cultured for 3 and 5 days in the presence of the extracts of the 3 composites all showed significantly more active proliferation than the blank control cells (P < 0.05). Compared with the cells seeded on the scaffold without siRNA, MC3T3 cells seeded on collagen/bioglass scaffold loaded with noggin siRNA showed a significantly higher ALP activity at 14 days after seeding (P < 0.05) with significantly increased expression of ALP, Runx2 and BSP mRNAs (P < 0.05). Alizarin Red staining showed that the cells seeded on the noggin siRNA-loading collagen/bioglass scaffold contained significantly more mineralized nodules than the other cells (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The collagen/bioglass composites loaded with noggin siRNA have a good biocompatibility, and the collagen/bioglass composites and noggin siRNA show a synergistic effect in promoting osteogenesis.

Abstract
The delivery performance of non-viral gene vectors is greatly related to their intracellular kinetics. Cationic helical polypeptides with potent membrane penetration properties and gene transfection efficiencies have been recently developed by us. However, they suffer from severe drawbacks in terms of their membrane penetration mechanisms that mainly include endocytosis and pore formation. The endocytosis mechanism leads to endosomal entrapment of gene cargos, while the charge- and helicity-induced pore formation causes appreciable cytotoxicity at high concentrations. With the attempt to overcome such critical challenges, we incorporated aromatic motifs into the design of helical polypeptides to enhance their membrane activities and more importantly, to manipulate their membrane penetration mechanisms. The aromatically modified polypeptides exhibited higher cellular internalization level than the unmodified analogue by up to 2.5 folds. Such improvement is possibly because aromatic domains promoted the polypeptides to penetrate cell membranes via direct transduction, a non-endocytosis and non-pore formation mechanism. As such, gene cargos were more efficiently delivered into cells by bypassing endocytosis and subsequently avoiding endosomal entrapment, and the material toxicity associated with excessive pore formation was also reduced. The top-performing aromatic polypeptide containing naphthyl side chains at the incorporated content of 20mol% revealed notably higher transfection efficiencies than commercial reagents in melanoma cells in vitro (by 11.7 folds) and in vivo (by 9.1 folds), and thus found potential utilities toward topical gene delivery for cancer therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Cationic helical polypeptides, as efficient gene delivery materials, suffer from severe drawbacks in terms of their membrane penetration mechanisms. The main cell penetration mechanisms involved are endocytosis and pore formation. However, the endocytosis mechanism has the limitation of endosomal entrapment of gene cargos, while the charge- and helicity-induced pore formation causes cytotoxicity at high concentrations. To address such critical issues toward the maximization of gene delivery efficiency, we incorporated aromatic domains into helical polypeptides to promote the cell membrane penetrations via direct transduction, which is a non-endocytosis and non-pore formation mechanism. The manipulation of their membrane penetration mechanisms allows gene cargos to be more efficiently delivered by bypassing endocytosis and subsequently avoiding endosomal entrapment.

Abstract
Two of the most prominent challenges that limit the clinical success of siRNA therapies are a lack of control over cargo release from the delivery vehicle and an incomplete understanding of the link between gene silencing dynamics and siRNA dosing. Herein, we address these challenges through the formulation of siRNA polyplexes containing light-responsive polymer mixtures, whose varied compositions and triggered release behavior provide enhanced gene silencing and controlled dose responses that can be predicted by simple kinetic models. Through the straightforward mixing of two block copolymers, the level of gene knockdown was easily optimized to achieve the maximum level of GAPDH protein silencing in NIH/3T3 cells (~70%) using a single siRNA dose. The kinetic model was used to describe the dynamic changes in mRNA and protein concentrations in response to siRNA treatment. These predictions enabled the application of a second dose of siRNA to maximally suppress gene expression over multiple days, leading to a further 50% reduction in protein levels relative to those measured following a single dose. Furthermore, polyplexes remained dormant in cells until exposed to the photo-stimulus, demonstrating the complete control over siRNA activity as well as the stability of the nanocarriers. Thus, this work demonstrates that pairing advances in biomaterials design with simple kinetic modeling provides new insight into gene silencing dynamics and presents a powerful strategy to control gene expression through siRNA delivery. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Our manuscript describes two noteworthy impacts: (1) we designed mixed polymer formulations to enhance gene silencing, and (2) we simultaneously developed a simple kinetic model for determining optimal siRNA dose responses to maintain silencing over several days. These advances address critical challenges in siRNA delivery and provide new opportunities in therapeutics development. The structure-function relationships prevalent in these formulations were established to enable tuning and forecasting of nanocarrier efficiency a priori, leading to siRNA dosing regimens able to maximally suppress gene expression. Our advances are significant because the mixed polymer formulations provide a straightforward and scalable approach to tailor siRNA delivery regimens. Moreover, the implementation of accurate dosing frameworks addresses a major knowledge gap that has hindered clinical implementation of siRNA.

Abstract
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) is emerging as a class of therapeutic with extremely high potential, particularly in the field of oncology. Despite this growing interest, further understanding of how siRNA behaves in vivo is still required before significant uptake into clinical application. To this end, many molecular imaging modalities have been utilised to gain a better understanding of the biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of administered siRNA and delivery vehicles. This highlight aims to provide an overview of the current state of the field for preclinical imaging of siRNA delivery.
