A picture is worth 1,000 words! 😍 A relatively small cholesterol ligand can efficiently deliver a 20 nucleotide siRNA duplex across the cell membrane - in this case, to reach a glioblastoma tumor teapawt.net/UMassMedRTI/status/100…
How pretty is this #siRNA? Another pub from the Khvorova lab AND a cover model #siRNA to boot: Efficient Gene Silencing in Brain Tumors with Hydrophobically Modified siRNAs mct.aacrjournals.org/content…

Who's in your academic family tree?? Amused to discover I'm the great-great-scientific-granddaughter of Francis Crick, Linus Pauling, Robert Mulliken, and Ernest Lawrence... Colleagues: "this explains a lot" :) academictree.org/chemistry/t… #academictree
