Cationic lipids and polymers for gene delivery
Gene therapy, aiming to eradicate causes rather than symptoms of diseases, is believed to be the therapy of the future. A new promising area for the application of gene therapy is the emerging field of regenerative medicine, where gene delivery can be used to enhance or modify cell functions in an organ/tissue or in engineered substitutes. The aim of gene therapy is to achieve the expression of...
متن کاملAdsorption of cationic dendrimers on negatively charged solid substrates
substrates Michal Borkovec Email. [email protected] July 31, 2012 Direct link www.colloid.ch/dendrimers Since their synthesis by Vögtle and Tomalia in the eighties, dendrimers have developed into an very interesting class of novel polymeric materials. Potential applications include surface patterning, synthesis of nanoparticles, or gene delivery. Our research group was much involved in t...
متن کاملAmylose-Based Cationic Star Polymers for siRNA Delivery
A new siRNA delivery system using a cationic glyco-star polymer is described. Spermine-modified 8-arm amylose star polymer (with a degree of polymerization of approximately 60 per arm) was synthesized by chemoenzymatic methods. The cationic star polymer effectively bound to siRNA and formed spherical complexes with an average hydrodynamic diameter of 230 nm. The cationic 8-arm star polymer comp...
متن کاملBranched Polymers
Intended as models in chemistry or biology, branched polymers are often modeled, in turn, by lattice animals (trees on a grid); see, e.g., [3, 5, 8, 10, 18, 19]. However, continuum polymers turn out to be in some respects more tractable than their grid cousins. In order to study the behavior of branched polymers, and in particular to define and understand what random examples look like, we must...
متن کاملCollapse of branched polymers
2014 Exact calculations using transfer matrices on finite strips are performed to study the two-dimensional problem of one lattice animal with an attractive nearest neighbour interaction. Thermodynamic quantities such as specific heat, compressibility, thermal expansion are calculated. Finite size scaling with two strips of different widths yields very accurate approximations of the critical li...
