Trivalent Disulfide Unit-Masked System Efficiently Delivers Large Oligonucleotide.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Oligonucleotide drugs are shining in clinical therapeutics, but efficient and safe delivery systems severely limit their widespread use. A disulfide unit technology platform based on dynamic thiol exchange chemistry at the cell membrane has the potential for drug delivery. However, the alteration of the disulfide unit CSSC dihedral angle induced by different substituents directly affects the effectiveness of this technology and its stability. Previously, we constructed a trivalent low dihedral angle disulfide unit that can effectively promote the cellular uptake of small molecules. Here, we constructed a novel disulfide unit-masked oligonucleotide hybrid based on a low dihedral angle disulfide unit, motivated by prodrug design. Cellular imaging results showed that such a system exhibited superior cellular delivery efficiency than the commercial Lipo2000 without cytotoxicity. The thiol reagents significantly reduced its cellular uptake (57-74%), which proved to be endocytosis-independent. In addition, in vivo distribution experiments in mice showed that such systems can be rapidly distributed in liver tissues with a duration of action of more than 24 h, representing a potential means of silencing genes involved in the pathogenesis of liver-like diseases. In conclusion, this trivalent disulfide unit-masked system we constructed can effectively deliver large oligonucleotide drugs.
