Disclosed herein are DNA origami nanostmcture that can be functionalized for personalized and targeted drug delivery. The disclosed nanostructures enter cells through the endolysosomal pathway and circumvent drug resistance mechanisms in target cells. The disclosed nanostructures can be loaded small molecule drugs (e.g. anthracyclines, anti-metabolites) and nucleic acids (e.g. antisense oligonucleotides, siRNA, miRNA) with targeting and/or therapeutic antibodies against tumor-specific antigens (e.g. anti-CD33, anti-CD20) that can be modified to treat to a wide range of cancers and ultimately tailored to specific patients' needs for precision medicine. |
