Abstract
For n vivo therapeutic applications of RNAi, the siRNA delivery systems should possess highly-developed functions such as the controllable onset and duration of gene knockdown at the targeted cells. For this purpose, we developed siRNA nanocarriers formed through the multimolecular assembly of block copolymers. In this review article, the structural design of the carriers, the physicochemical properties, and the gene knockdown abilities are described.
