Topic Introduction Nonviral Gene Delivery
Modern cell biology increasingly relies on molecular tools to facilitate the study of cellular processes. With the advent of recombinant DNA technology, reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to amplify almost any gene, and fluorescent proteins that can be fused to any desired target protein, the number and scope of functional studies designed to determine the roles of protein...
متن کاملNonviral gene delivery with the sleeping beauty transposon system.
Effective gene therapy requires robust delivery of therapeutic genes into relevant target cells, long-term gene expression, and minimal risks of secondary effects. Nonviral gene transfer approaches typically result in only short-lived transgene expression in primary cells, because of the lack of nuclear maintenance of the vector over several rounds of cell division. The development of efficient...
متن کاملNonviral gene delivery to the liver
Diseases of the liver have a large impact on human health. Genetic disorders, metabolic disorders, alcoholism, cancer, or infections can all impair liver function. If serious enough, a liver transplant may be necessary, a major surgical procedure which requires life-long immune suppression and relies on the availability of donor livers. Gene therapy is being intensively studied as a potential m...
متن کاملToxicogenomics of Nonviral Cationic Gene Delivery Nanosystems
To date, both viral and nonviral vectors have been exploited for delivery of gene-based therapies to target cells/tissues. Despite high efficiency of the viral vectors (e.g., retroviruses and adenoviruses), these vectors appear to be immunogenic and potentially harmful when used in clinical gene therapy protocols (Ferber, 2001b). Besides, the preparation and purification of the viral vectors ap...
متن کاملCalcium-Alginate Nanoparticles for Nonviral Gene Delivery
Natural biopolymers are widely used in the field of drug and gene delivery. In this study, alginate nanoparticles were prepared using water-in-oil reverse microemulsion as a template followed by calcium crosslinking of guluronic acid units of alginate polymer. After collected by ultracentrifugation, alginate nanoparticles were analyzed by electron microscopy to obtain the size and morphology wh...
