Optimization of conditions for gene delivery system based on PEI
Objective(s): PEI based nanoparticle (NP) due to dual capabilities of proton sponge and DNA binding is known as powerful tool for nucleic acid delivery to cells. However, serious cytotoxicity and complicated conditions, which govern NPs properties and its interactions with cells practically, hindered achievement to high transfection efficiency. Here, we have tried to optimize the properties of ...
متن کاملTarget-specific gene silencing by siRNA plasmid DNA complexed with folate-modified poly(ethylenimine).
A target-specific delivery system of green fluorescent protein (GFP) small interfering RNA (siRNA) plasmid DNA was developed by using folate-modified cationic polyethylenimine (PEI). A GFP siRNA plasmid vector (pSUPER-siGFP), which inhibits the synthesis of GFP, was constructed and used for suppressing GFP expression in folate receptor over-expressing cells (KB cells) in a target-specific manne...
متن کاملReducible, Dibromomaleimide-linked Polymers for Gene Delivery.
Polycations have been successfully used as gene transfer vehicles both in vitro and in vivo; however, their cytotoxicity has been associated with increasing molecular weight. Polymers that can be rapidly degraded after internalization are typically better tolerated by mammalian cells compared to their non-degradable counterparts. Here, we report the use of a dibromomaleimide-alkyne (DBM-alkyne)...
متن کاملTracking the intracellular path of poly(ethylenimine)/DNA complexes for gene delivery.
Poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) is one of a number of polycations that has been used successfully to transfer genes into living cells. Although PEI shows promise in the field of gene therapy, to date no rigorous proof of mechanism has been published regarding the fate of PEI/DNA administered for transfection. Here we show, by using fluorescent labeling and confocal microscopy, the paths of PEI/DNA com...
متن کاملPoly(ethylenimine)-mediated transfection: a new paradigm for gene delivery.
Poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) is a synthetic polycation that has been used successfully for gene delivery both in vitro and in vivo due, in theory, to a form of protection that is afforded to the carried plasmids. In this study the stability of PEI/DNA complexes was demonstrated using deoxyribonuclease (DNase) 1 and DNase 2, various levels of pH, and increasing exposure times. DNA that was complexed...
