Towards water-soluble [60]fullerenes for the delivery of siRNA in a prostate cancer model

Abstract This paper presents two water-soluble fullerene nanomaterials (HexakisaminoC60 and monoglucosamineC60, which is called here JK39) that were developed and synthesized as non-viral siRNA transfection nanosystems. The developed two-step Bingel–Hirsch reaction enables the chemical modification...
