- DNA Nanostructure-Based Delivery Systems
There is a wide variety of DNA nanostructures and many of them have been used for oligonucleotide therapeutic delivery. DNA nanostructures have typical self-assembly due to the base pairing complementarity of their constituent parts. In comparison to other methods, DNA nanostructures can be designed with precise geometries so that their physical properties such as size, flexibility and shape can be fine-tuned in order to maximize their delivery potential.
As an attractive and relatively new candidate for oligonucleotide therapeutic delivery, self-assembled DNA nanostructures perform multitudinous superior properties that can be summed up as the following[1].
DNA nanostructures have emerged as versatile and effective platforms for the delivery of therapeutic oligonucleotides, such as antisense oligonucleotides (ASO), small interfering RNA (siRNA), and immunostimulatory oligonucleotides. These nanostructures can be precisely engineered to enhance the stability, targeting, and cellular uptake of the oligonucleotides. Below are some of the common DNA nanostructures used in oligonucleotide therapeutic delivery:
