Zusammenfassung: | Self‐assembled polymer/porous silicon nanocomposites overcome intracellular and systemic barriers for in vivo application of peptide nucleic acid (PNA) anti‐microRNA therapeutics. Porous silicon (PSi) is leveraged as a biodegradable scaffold with high drug‐cargo‐loading capacity. Functionalization with a diblock polymer improves PSi nanoparticle colloidal stability, in vivo pharmacokinetics, and intracellular bioavailability through endosomal escape, enabling PNA to inhibit miR‐122 in vivo. |
