Nonviral Gene Delivery to Mesenchymal Stem Cells Using Cationic Liposomes for Gene and Cell Therapy
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold a great promise for application in several therapies due to their unique biological characteristics. In order to harness their full potential in cell-or gene-based therapies it might be advantageous to enhance some of their features through gene delivery strategies. Accordingly, we are interested in developing an efficient and safe methodology to genetically e...

متن کاملMannosylated liposomes for targeted gene delivery
BACKGROUND Liposomes can be modified with different ligands to control their biological properties, such as longevity, targeting ability, and intracellular penetration, in a desired fashion. The aim of this study was to modify liposomes with a novel mannosylated polyethylene glycol-phosphatidylethanolamine (M-PEG-PE) ligand to achieve active targeted gene delivery. METHODS Rat Kupffer cells w...
متن کاملEpidermis-targeted gene transfer using in vivo electroporation.
The skin is an important target for gene transfer because of its easy accessibility. Recently, we demonstrated that an in vivo electroporation approach could be applied to plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid delivery in rat skin of the abdominal area. Plate-and-fork type electrodes were effective for gene delivery by skin-targeted gene transfer. Eight 12-24 V, 50-m electric pulses were delivered thro...
متن کاملIntegrin Targeted Delivery of Gene Therapeutics
Integrins have become key targets for molecular imaging and for selective delivery of anti-cancer agents. Here we review recent work concerning the targeted delivery of antisense and siRNA oligonucleotides via integrins. A variety of approaches have been used to link oligonucleotides to ligands capable of binding integrins with high specificity and affinity. This includes direct chemical conjug...
