Gene therapy as a modern therapeutic approach has not yet advanced to a globally-approved therapeutic approach. Lack of adequate reliable gene delivery system seems to be one of the major reasons from the pharmaceutical biotechnology point of view. Main obstacles delaying successful application of human gene therapy are presented in this review. The unique advantages of non-biological gene carr...

objective: generation 5 poly (amidoamine) dendrimers are promising multipotent gene delivery vectors that provide favorable dna condensation properties; however, their high toxicity limits their applications. toxicity of pamam dendrimers depends on their type, generation and applied dosage in a way that lower generations (lower than g5 dendrimers) and anionic dendrimers have lower toxicity than...
