Transcripts for combined synthetic microRNA and gene delivery.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short noncoding RNAs which are endogenously expressed in many organisms and regulate gene expression by binding to messenger RNA (mRNA). MicroRNAs are either produced from their independent transcription units in intergenic regions or lie in intragenic regions. Intragenic miRNAs and their host mRNAs are produced from the same transcript by the microprocessor an...
متن کاملCircular Single-Stranded Synthetic DNA Delivery Vectors for MicroRNA
Single-stranded (ss) circular oligodeoxynucleotides were previously found to undergo rolling circle transcription (RCT) by phage and bacterial RNA polymerases (RNAPs) into tandemly repetitive RNA multimers. Here, we redesign them to encode minimal primary miRNA mimics, with the long term aim of intracellular transcription followed by RNA processing and maturation via endogenous pathways. We des...
متن کاملPolysorbate cationic synthetic vesicle for gene delivery.
Synthetic nonionic surfactant vesicles (niosomes) are a colloidal system with closed bilayer structures, displaying distinct advantages in stability and cost compared with liposomes. In this article, polysorbate cationic niosomes (PCNs) were developed as gene carriers. The PCNs comprised nonionic surfactants (i.e., polysorbates) and a cationic cholesterol, and were synthesized using a film hydr...
متن کاملRationally Designed Synthetic Vectors for Gene Delivery
Vector development is one of the most important challenges facing the successful use of genes for treatment of diseases. Although chemically produced vectors offer distinct advantages over biological systems such as viruses, there are still some hurdles that have to be overcome before synthetic gene delivery vectors can be successfully implemented. This brief review discusses the biological bar...
متن کاملTargeted synthetic gene delivery vectors.
Synthetic gene delivery vehicles have made significant progress in the past decade in demonstrating strong potential for targeted delivery to specific cells, low toxicity and immunogenicity and large carrying capacity. However, significant advances must still be made to increase the efficiency of both polymer and lipid vehicles. Furthermore, techniques to generate more effective targeting moiet...
