Ternary complex of plasmid DNA electrostatically assembled with polyamidoamine dendrimer and chondroitin sulfate for effective and secure gene delivery.
The purpose of this study was to develop a ternary complex of plasmid DNA (pDNA) electrostatically assembled with polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer and chondroitin sulfate (CS) for effective and secure gene delivery. PAMAM dendrimers are new cationic polymers that are expected to be used as gene delivery vectors. However, cationic non-viral gene vectors showed cytotoxicity by binding to negative...
متن کاملDevelopment of safe and effective nonviral gene therapy by eliminating CpG motifs from plasmid DNA vector.
Nonviral gene therapy is expected to become a regular treatment for a variety of difficult-to-treat diseases, such as cancer and virus infection. Plasmid DNA, which is used in most nonviral gene delivery systems, usually contains, unmethylated cytosine-guanine dinucleotides, so called CpG motifs. CpG motifs are recognized by immune cells as a danger signal, leading to an inflammatory response. ...
متن کاملHuman cytomegalovirus plasmid-based amplicon vector system for gene therapy
We have constructed and evaluated the utility of a helper-dependent virus vector system that is derived from Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV). This vector is based on the herpes simplex virus (HSV) amplicon system and contains the HCMV orthologs of the two cis-acting functions required for replication and packaging of HSV genomes, the complex HCMV viral DNA replication origin (oriLyt), and the clea...
متن کاملLateral flow immunoassay with the signal enhanced by gold nanoparticle aggregates based on polyamidoamine dendrimer.
In order to amplify the signal in a gold nanoparticle-based lateral flow immunoassay, a simple and sensitive method utilizing gold nanoparticle aggregates as a colored reagent formed with a polyamidoamine dendrimer was developed. The results were compared with that achieved by employing the individual nanoparticles used in the conventional lateral flow immunoassay. Under the optimized experimen...
متن کاملPlasmid pORF-hTRAIL targeting to glioma using transferrin-modified polyamidoamine dendrimer
A gene drug delivery system for glioma therapy based on transferrin (Tf)-modified polyamidoamine dendrimer (PAMAM) was prepared. Gene drug, tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (hTRAIL)-encoding plasmid open reading frame (pORF-hTRAIL, Trail), was condensed by Tf-modified PAMAM to form nanoparticles (NPs). PAMAM-PEG-Tf/DNA NPs showed higher cellular uptake, in vitro gene expr...
