Overview

HuR siRNA is an experimental RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutic modality designed to silence the expression of the HuR gene (Human Antigen R, also known as ELAVL1). HuR is an RNA-binding protein that is frequently overexpressed in various malignancies, including pancreatic, lung, and breast cancers. It plays a central role in post-transcriptional regulation by binding to and stabilizing mRNAs that encode oncoproteins involved in cell proliferation, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), metastasis, and drug resistance. By utilizing small interfering RNA (siRNA) to trigger the degradation of HuR mRNA, this approach aims to downregulate these oncogenic factors and inhibit tumor progression. Various delivery systems are under investigation to improve the stability and tumor-specific uptake of the siRNA, such as the siHuR-3DNA nanocarrier, which utilizes a transferrin-conjugated DNA nanoparticle for targeted delivery.
