FOLATE TARGETING OF NUCLEOTIDES

摘要

The present invention relates to compounds, compositions, kits, and methods of use in targeting nucleotides, such as siRNA's, to cancer cells or to immune system cells involved in inflammation. More particularly, the invention is directed to receptor binding ligand-nucleotide delivery conjugates for use in specifically targeting the conjugates to cancer cells or to immune system cells, methods of treatment with these conjugates, methods of preparation of these conjugates, and methods of reducing the expression of a gene in vitro or in vivo with the conjugates described herein.
