Mannose polyethylenimine conjugates for targeted DNA delivery into dendritic cells.
Cell surface-bound receptors represent suitable entry sites for gene delivery into cells by receptor-mediated endocytosis. Here we have taken advantage of the mannose receptor that is highly expressed on antigen-presenting dendritic cells for targeted gene transfer by employing mannosylpolyethylenimine (ManPEI) conjugates. Several ManPEI conjugates were synthesized and used for formation of Man...
متن کاملMannosylated biodegradable polyethyleneimine for targeted DNA delivery to dendritic cells
BACKGROUND To establish a potential gene-delivery system with the ability to deliver plasmid DNA to dendritic cells (DCs) more efficiently and specifically, we designed and synthesized a low-molecular-weight polyethyleneimine and triethyleneglycol polymer (PEI-TEG) and a series of its mannosylated derivatives. METHODS PEI-TEG was synthesized from PEI2000 and PEI600 with TEG as the cross-linke...
متن کاملEffective in vitro gene delivery to murine cancerous brain cells using carbon nanotube-polyethylenimine conjugates
Objective(s): Carbon nanotube (CNT) has been widely applied at molecular and cellular levels due to its exceptional properties. Studies based on conjugation of CNTs with biological molecules indicated that biological activity is preserved. Polyethylenimine (PEI) is explored in designing novel gene delivery vectors due to its ability to condense plasmid DNA through electrostatic attraction. In t...
متن کاملcomparison of two delivery systems efficiency by using polyethylenimine (pei) for plasmid hpv16e7 dna transfection into cos-7 cells
objective: dna vaccines have been widely used to develop immunity against various pathogens including parasites and viruses. the potential of dna vaccine to induce an effective immune response is related to the expression levels of the encoded protein in eukaryotic cells. therefore, optimization of plasmid dna delivery system is a major concern in protein expression in order to make an efficien...
متن کاملTargeted quantum dot conjugates for siRNA delivery.
Treatment of human diseases such as cancer generally involves the sequential use of diagnostic tools and therapeutic modalities. Multifunctional platforms combining therapeutic and diagnostic imaging functions in a single vehicle promise to change this paradigm. in particular, nanoparticle-based multifunctional platforms offer the potential to improve the pharmacokinetics of drug formulations, ...
