abstract |
Certain aspects of the invention relate to the use of small particles in biological systems, including the delivery of biologically active agents to cells or tissues using nanoparticles of less than about 200 nm in approximate diameter. Embodiments include collection of particles having a bioactive component, a surfactant molecule, a biocompatible polymer, and a cell recognition component, wherein the cell recognition component has a binding affinity for a cell recognition target. Compositions and methods of use are also set forth, including the use of antisense directed against Protein Kinase CK2, CK2 alpha, CK2 alpha’, and CK2 beta. |
