    Cellular FLIP (cFLIP) is a crucial player of apoptosis-regulated pathways that is frequently overexpressed in solid cancers. To inhibit c-FLIP, pre- and post-transcriptionally, a multifunctional nanoparticle (NP) was created to deliver cFLIP-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) into cancer cells. Specifically, Vorinostat (Vor)-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) were conjugated with polyethylenimine-biotin (PB), followed by electrostatically binding with cFLIP siRNA (Vor/siR@MSN-PB). To stabilize and prolong the circulation time of nanoparticles, a bialdehyde-modified poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) was cross-linked onto the polyethylenimine (PEI) backbone via the formation of ...
