Gene therapy with caspase-3 small interfering RNA-nanoparticles is neuroprotective after optic nerve damage

Apoptosis, a key mechanism of programmed cell death, is triggered by caspase-3 protein and lowering its levels with gene therapy may rescue cell death after central nervous system damage. We developed a novel, non-viral gene therapy to block caspase-3 gene expression using small interfering RNA (siR...
