Enhanced gene transfer activity of peptide-targeted gene-delivery vectors.
We have evaluated the capacity of the cell-binding heptapeptide SIGYPLP to enhance transgene expression using non-viral and viral gene delivery vectors. Targeted polyplex based vectors showed good levels of DNA uptake in freshly isolated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) compared to untargeted controls, whilst displaying only modest increases in reporter gene activity. The targete...
متن کاملAn advance in liver-specific gene delivery.
O of the more intractable problems in gene therapy over the past decade has been the development of methods to allow the selective delivery of genes to the liver and their stable maintenance and expression therein. Hepatocytes (the principal parenchymal cell of the liver) are a much sought-after target of gene therapy because they play many unique roles in the physiology of the mammalian host (...
متن کاملTissue-specific gene delivery via nanoparticle coating.
The use of biomaterials for gene delivery can potentially avoid many of the safety concerns with viral gene delivery. However, the efficacy of polymeric gene delivery methods is low, particularly in vivo. One significant concern is that the interior and exterior composition of polymeric gene delivery nanoparticles are often coupled, with a single polymer backbone governing all functions from bi...
متن کاملGene Delivery to Mesenchymal Stem Cells
There is increasing trend in using recombinant stem cells as novel therapeutic candidates in different diseases. These studies encompass different applications from targeted homing of Mesenchymal Stromal (stem) Cells (MSC), to arming them with different cytokines. Resistance to transfection or transduction methods had urged researchers to look for better gene delivery alternates and optimizing ...
متن کاملKidney-specific Sonoporation-mediated Gene Transfer
Sonoporation can deliver agents to target local organs by systemic administration, while decreasing the associated risk of adverse effects. Sonoporation has been used for a variety of materials and in a variety of organs. Herein, we demonstrated that local sonoporation to the kidney can offer highly efficient transfer of oligonucleotides, which were systemically administrated to the tubular epi...
