Popis: The kidneys have rarely been used as a target in the systemic delivery of siRNA when compared to other tissues or organs in the body. This review article deals with various modalities adopted to deliver siRNA to the renal system under different normal and pathophysiological states. In this article, the authors have reviewed extensive clinical data that describe the use of siRNA for the treatment of renal diseases. Conventional and 3D modeling utilizes the existing genome-based RNA libraries, which facilitated the identification of molecular pathways involved in renal diseases. Keywords: siRNA, kidney disease, targeting proteins, signal pathways
