Surface polyethylene glycol enhances substrate-mediated gene delivery by nonspecifically immobilized complexes.

Substrate-mediated gene delivery describes the immobilization of gene therapy vectors to a biomaterial, which enhances gene transfer by exposing adhered cells to elevated DNA concentrations within the local microenvironment. Surface chemistry has been shown to affect transfection by nonspecifically immobilized complexes using self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiols on gold. In this rep...

Ionic strength mediated hydrophobic force switching of CF3-terminated ethylene glycol self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold.

We have synthesised novel oligo(ethylene glycol), CF3-terminated switching self-assembled monolayers, which allow the force experienced by a hydrophobic object to be controlled via the ionic strength of the environment.

Substrate-mediated delivery from self-assembled monolayers: effect of surface ionization, hydrophilicity, and patterning.

Gene transfer has many potential applications in basic and applied sciences. In vitro, DNA delivery can be enhanced by increasing the concentration of DNA in the cellular microenvironment through immobilization of DNA to a substrate that supports cell adhesion. Substrate-mediated delivery describes the immobilization of DNA, complexed with cationic lipids or polymers, to a biomaterial or substr...

Substrate effects in poly(ethylene glycol) self-assembled monolayers on granular and flame-annealed gold.

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are surface coatings that efficiently prevent nonspecific adhesion of biomolecules to surfaces. Here, we report on SAM formation of the PEG thiol CH3O(CH2CH2O)17NHCO(CH2)2SH (PEG(17)) on three types of Au films: thermally evaporated granular Au and two types of Au films from hydrogen flame annealing of granular Au, Au(111), and Au sil...

Biomaterial-mediated retroviral gene transfer using self-assembled monolayers.

Biomaterial-mediated gene delivery has recently emerged as a promising alternative to conventional gene transfer technologies that focus on direct delivery of viral vectors or DNA-polymer/matrix complexes. However, biomaterial-based strategies have primarily targeted transient gene expression vehicles, including plasmid DNA and adenovirus particles. This study expands on this work by characteri...
