Abstract
This review discusses the application of nanoliposomes containing siRNA/drug to overcome multidrug resistance for all types of cancer treatments. As drug resistance-associated factors are overexpressed in many cancer cell types, pumping chemotherapy drugs out of the cytoplasm leads to an inadequate therapeutic response. The siRNA/drug-loaded nanoliposomes are a promising approach to treating multidrug-resistant cancer, as they can effectively transmit a small-molecule drug into the target cytoplasm, ensuring that the drug binds efficiently. Moreover, nanoliposome-based therapeutics with advances in nanotechnology can effectively deliver siRNA to cancer cells. Overall, nanoliposomes have the potential to effectively deliver siRNA and small-molecule drugs in a targeted manner and are thus a promising tool for the treatment of cancer and other diseases.

Abstract
Cytosolic delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA) remains challenging, and a profound understanding of the cellular uptake and intracellular processing of siRNA delivery systems could greatly improve the development of siRNA-based therapeutics. Here, we show that caveolae-mediated endocytosis (CvME) accounts for the robust siRNA delivery of mannose-modified trimethyl chitosan-cysteine/tripolyphosphate nanoparticles (MTC/TPP NPs) to macrophages by circumventing lysosomes. We show that the Golgi complex and ER are key organelles required for the efficient delivery of siRNA to macrophages in which the siRNA accumulation positively correlates with its silencing efficiency (r = 0.94). We also identify syntaxin6 and Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) as indispensable regulators for MTC/TPP NPs-delivered siRNA into macrophages both in vitro and in vivo. Syntaxin6 and NPC1 knockout substantially decrease the cellular uptake and gene silencing of the siRNA delivered in MTC/TPP NPs in macrophages, which result in poor therapeutic outcomes for mice bearing acute hepatic injury. Our results suggest that highly efficient siRNA delivery can be achieved via CvME, which would give ideas for designing optimal delivery vectors to facilitate the clinical translation of siRNA drugs.

Abstract
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and glaucoma are global ocular diseases with high blindness rate. RNA interference (RNAi) is being increasingly used in the treatment of these disorders with siRNA drugs, bevasiranib, AGN211745 and PF-04523655 for AMD, and SYL040012 and QPI-1007 for glaucoma. Administration routes and vectors of gene drugs affect their therapeutic effect. Compared with the non-viral vectors, viral vectors have limited payload capacity and potential immunogenicity. This review summarizes the progress of the ocular siRNA gene-silencing therapy by focusing on siRNA drugs for AMD and glaucoma already used in clinical research, the main routes of drug delivery and the non-viral vectors for siRNA drugs.
