Abstract
Gene silencing through RNA interference (RNAi) technology has provided forceful therapeutic modalities to specific knockdown of the genes' expression related to diseases. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) can start a process that specifically degrades and silences the expression of cognate mRNAs. These RNA interference processes could effectively adjust many biological processes, including immune responses. Dendritic cells (DCs) are specialist antigen-presenting cells with potent functions in regulating innate and adaptive immunity. SiRNAs performed vital roles in coordinating immune processes mediated by DCs. This review describes the findings that shed light on the significance of siRNAs in DC immune regulation and highlight their potential applications for improving DC-based immunotherapies.
期刊介绍：
Current Molecular Medicine is an interdisciplinary journal focused on providing the readership with current and comprehensive reviews/ mini-reviews, original research articles, short communications/letters and drug clinical trial studies on fundamental molecular mechanisms of disease pathogenesis, the development of molecular-diagnosis and/or novel approaches to rational treatment. The reviews should be of significant interest to basic researchers and clinical investigators in molecular medicine. Periodically the journal invites guest editors to devote an issue on a basic research area that shows promise to advance our understanding of the molecular mechanism(s) of a disease or has potential for clinical applications.
