RNA interference (RNAi), a valuable tool to specifically silence gene expression, is becoming an indispensable weapon in the arsenal of functional genomics, target validation and gene-specific therapeutic research. We have shown that Streptolysin-O (SLO) reversible permeabilization is an efficient method to deliver small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to hard-to-transfect human myeloma cell lines. In addition, we have shown that transfection of siRNAs, using the SLO reversible permeabilization, specifically and efficiently induces gene silencing in myeloma cell lines.
RNA干扰(RNAi)是一种特异性沉默基因表达的重要工具,正成为功能基因组学、靶点验证和基因特异性治疗研究武器库中不可或缺的武器。我们已经证明,链球菌溶血素-O(SLO)可逆通透化是一种将小干扰RNA(siRNA)递送至难以转染的人骨髓瘤细胞系的有效方法。此外,我们已经证明,利用SLO可逆通透化转染siRNA可在骨髓瘤细胞系中特异性且高效地诱导基因沉默。
