Furthermore, in vitro transfection of polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) siRNA by FA-PEG-modified liposomes exhibited strong cytotoxicity in KB cells, compared with PEG-modified liposomes; however, in in vivo therapy, intratumoral injection of PEG-modified PLK1 siRNA lipoplexes inhibited tumor growth of KB xenografts, as well as that of FA-PEG-modified PLK1 siRNA lipoplexes. This evidence concerns the gene PLK1 and neoplasm.
