Non-Viral Vehicles: Principles, Applications, and Challenges in Gene Delivery
Gene therapy is often referred to as transfer of transgenes into the somatic cells of a patient to obtain a therapeutic effect .One of the goals for all such therapies is efficient and safe delivery of the desired extrinsic genes into target cells, thereby increasing the therapeutic efficiency (Robson & Hirst, 2003). This has been a major obstacle in gene therapy experiments (Sarbolouki et al.,...
متن کاملSoxtec: Its Principles and Applications
The classical Soxhlet method provides the fundamental basis for a modern-day solvent extraction system, the SoxtecTM. Using the Randall modification, sometimes called the submersion method, the Soxtec provides a faster approach to solvent extraction for the gravimetric quantitation of fat and oil. Typically, the Soxtec methods require only 20–25% of the time required for traditional Soxhlet ext...
متن کاملAnimal Models for Hydrodynamic Gene Delivery
Hydrodynamic gene delivery (HGD) is an established method of the last decade where macromolecules, non-normally permeable to cell membrane, are delivered intracellular. The basic principle is that a large volume of solution, containing genes or oligonucleotides, RNA, proteins or other compounds, is infused rapidly in circulation to permit the entrance of these substances to parenchymal cells. E...
متن کاملSmall interfering RNA; principles, applications and challenges--
Gene silencing using RNAi (RNA interference), has recently been used as a successful laboratory technique in determining the function and control of gene expression and provides a wide range of applications in molecular biology and gene therapy. RNAi is a method of suppressing gene expression. In this direction, a single-stranded RNA molecule of about 21–23 nucleotides, called siRNA (small inte...
متن کاملImage-Guided Hydrodynamic Gene Delivery: Current Status and Future Directions
Hydrodynamics-based delivery has been used as an experimental tool to express transgene in small animals. This in vivo gene transfer method is useful for functional analysis of genetic elements, therapeutic effect of oligonucleotides, and cancer cells to establish the metastatic cancer animal model for experimental research. Recent progress in the development of image-guided procedure for hydro...
