Specific Inhibition of Viral MicroRNAs by Carbon Dots-Mediated Delivery of Locked Nucleic Acids for Therapy of Virus-Induced Cancer
2 Jan 2020
Abstract excerpt
Viruses are associated with up to 15% of human cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) encoded by numerous oncogenic viruses including Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) play significant roles in regulating the proliferation and survival of virus-induced cancer cells, hence representing attractive therapeutic targets. Here, we report that specific inhibition of viral miRNAs by carbon dots (Cdots)-mediated delivery...
