By introducing synthetic RNA duplexes called small-interfering RNAs (siRNAs), we can harness the RNAi machinery for therapeutic gene control and the treatment of various diseases. The present invention discloses RNA, RNA–DNA, DNA–RNA, hybrid nanocubes consisting of a DNA or RNA core (composed of six strands) with attached RNA or DNA hybrid duplexes. The nanocubes can induce the reassociation of the RNA duplexes, which can then be processed by the human recombinant Dicer enzyme, thus activating RNAi. This technology opens a new route for the development of ‘‘smart’’ nucleic acid based nanoparticles for a wide range of biomedical applications. Immune responses can be controlled by altering the composition of the particles. Potential Commercial Applications: • Treatment for various diseases • Clinical research VerDate Mar<15>2010 20:23 Jul 10, 2014 Jkt 232001 • Basic research Competitive Advantages: • Low cytotoxicity • Chemical stability • More specificity • Controlled activation • Multiple targets • Visualization Development Stage: In vitro data available Inventors: Bruce A.
