Improvements in transfection efficiency with chitosan modified poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) nanospheres prepared by the emulsion solvent diffusion method, for gene delivery.
This study sought to evaluate the in vitro transfection efficiency of plasmid DNA (pDNA)-loaded chitosan-modified poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) nanospheres (CS-PLGA NS) in a gene-delivery system. Using the emulsion solvent diffusion (ESD) method, pDNA-loaded PLGA NS was prepared and the surface of the PLGA NS was modified by binding to CS. Gene transfection ability of CS-PLGA NS was examined in...
متن کاملSurface-modified poly(lactide-co-glycolide) nanospheres for targeted bone imaging with enhanced labeling and delivery of radioisotope.
Surface-modified nanospheres can be utilized for targeting drugs and diagnostic agents to the bone and bone marrow while extending their circulation time in the blood stream. The surface modification of poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanospheres by radioisotope carrying poly(ethylene oxide)-poly (propylene oxide)-poly (ethylene oxide) triblock copolymers (Poloxamer 407) has been assessed by ...
متن کاملPhysicochemical features and transfection properties of chitosan/poloxamer 188/poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) nanoplexes
The aim of this study was the evaluation of the effects of two emulsifiers on the physicochemical and technological properties of low molecular weight chitosan/poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoplexes and their transfection efficiency. Nanospheres were prepared using the nanoprecipitation method of the preformed polymer. The mean diameter and surface charge of the nanospheres were inve...
متن کاملChitosan/poly(DL,lactide-co-glycolide) scaffolds for tissue engineering.
Chitosan/poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (Ch/DL PLG) composite scaffolds were fabricated by freeze-drying lyophilization, and were evaluated and compared for use as a bone regeneration scaffold through measurements of the compression mechanical properties of the porous scaffolds. Also, In vitro cell culture of Sprague-Dawley rat's osteoblasts were used to evaluate the phenotype expression of cell...
متن کاملTherapeutic Use of 3β-[N-(N′,N′-Dimethylaminoethane) Carbamoyl] Cholesterol-Modified PLGA Nanospheres as Gene Delivery Vehicles for Spinal Cord Injury
Gene delivery holds therapeutic promise for the treatment of neurological diseases and spinal cord injury. Although several studies have investigated the use of non-viral vectors, such as polyethylenimine (PEI), their clinical value is limited by their cytotoxicity. Recently, biodegradable poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanospheres have been explored as non-viral vectors. Here, we show that...
