    An efficient intrathecal delivery of small interfering RNA to the spinal cord and peripheral neurons

    We have developed a highly effective method for in vivo gene silencing in the spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) by a cationic lipid facilitated delivery of synthetic, small interfering RNA (siRNA). A siRN...
