      Ferritin-mediated siRNA delivery and gene silencing in human tumor and primary cells 

      Li, Le; Muñoz Culla, Maider; Carmona Igartua, Unai; López, María Paz; Yang, Fang; Trigueros, Cesar; Otaegui Bichot, David; Zhang, Lianbing; Knez, Mato (Elsevier, 2016-05-05)
      We demonstrate a straightforward method to encapsulate siRNA into naturally available and unmodified human apoferritin. The encapsulation into apoferritin is independent of the sequence of the siRNA and provides superior ...
