摘要
RNA interference has proven to be a powerful tool in gene function validation. Recently, the first studies were published reporting a disease-modulating activity of the technique, suggesting a promise for RNA interference as a novel therapeutic strategy. This review discusses the recent advancements in realizing the clinical utility of RNA-interference.
