How Can RNA Silencing Be Used in Pediatric Therapeutics?
RNA silencing technologies, such as siRNA and miRNA mimics or inhibitors, have potential therapeutic applications in pediatrics. These technologies can target specific genes involved in disease processes, offering a more targeted approach compared to traditional therapies.
- [siRNA Therapy](https://): siRNA can be designed to target and degrade mRNA from harmful genes. This approach is being researched for treating genetic disorders in children. - [miRNA Modulation](https://): Modulating miRNA levels can correct dysregulated pathways in diseases like cancer and congenital anomalies.
