Cell-penetrating-peptide-mediated siRNA lung delivery.
The therapeutic application of siRNA (short interfering RNA) shows promise as an alternative approach to small-molecule inhibitors for the treatment of human disease. However, the major obstacle to its use has been the difficulty in delivering these large anionic molecules in vivo. A potential approach to solving this problem is the chemical conjugation of siRNA to the cationic CPPs (cell-penet...
متن کامل4.1.2??Transport of molecules across cell membranes
? Transport proteins play a critical part in solute movement because membranes constitute a barrier to free diffusion of molecules. If membranes allowed rapid diffusion of both ions and water, gradients of ions would be slight and osmotic pressure could only be achieved with enormous energy consumption. Instead, some molecules, such as water and gases, move rapidly across membranes. Unrestricte...
متن کاملCeramide-mediated transport of chloride and bicarbonate across phospholipid membranes.
The sphingolipid, ceramide 1, facilitates transport of Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) anions across lipid bilayers under conditions where large transmembrane pores are not formed. Ceramide's 1,3-diol unit is essential for both binding and transporting these anions.
متن کاملCell penetrating peptide-mediated systemic siRNA delivery to the liver.
The cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) is one of the most attractive tools for efficiently delivering biomolecules to a target organelle. Here, we describe the use of octaarginine (R8)-modified lipid nanoparticles for the efficient and targeted in vivo delivery of siRNA to the liver. In this study, SR-BI (a scavenger receptor class B, member 1) was targeted by this nanoparticle. Our results demonst...
متن کاملTranslocation of a beta-peptide across cell membranes.
Short cationic peptides derived from DNA-binding proteins, of which HIV Tat is a prototype, can cross the membranes of living cells, and they can bring covalently attached moieties (proteins, drugs) along with them. We show that a beta-amino acid analogue of Tat 47-57 enters HeLa cells with comparable efficiency to Tat 47-57 itself (YGRKKRRQRRR). The beta-peptide is comprised of residues that b...
