Pluronic as nano-carier for drug delivery systems
A common approach for building a drug delivery system is to incorporate the drug within the nanocarrier that results in increased solubility, metabolic stability, and improved circulation time. However, recent developments indicate that selection of polymer nanomaterials can implement more than only inert carrier functions by being biological response modifiers. One representative of such mater...
متن کاملCalcium based non-viral gene delivery: an overview of methodology and applications.
Application of therapeutic gene transfer in the treatment of genetic diseases is a notable progress but there are some disadvantages and limitations in it. The process of overcoming these barriers is a drastic change in gene delivery. Recently, calcium phosphate nanoparticles alone, or in combination with viral and nonviral vectors, were found to have a positive effect on gene transfer especial...
متن کاملSRL-coated PAMAM dendrimer nano-carrier for targeted gene delivery to the glioma cells and competitive inhibition by lactoferrin
Glioma, as a primary tumor of central nervous system, is the main cause of death in patients with brain cancer. Therefore, development of an efficient strategy for treatment of glioma is worthy. The aim of the current study was to develop a SRL peptide-coated dendrimer as a novel dual gene delivery system for targeting the LRP receptor, an up-regulated gene in both BBB and glioma cells. To perf...

متن کاملCalcium Phosphate Nanoparticles a Novel Non-viral Gene Delivery System for Genetic Transformation of Tobacco
Nanotechnology plays a unique and novel role to develop new methods for genetic engineering. Calcium phosphate (CaP) has various significances in biomedical systems; one of them is plasmid DNA (pDNA) delivery for decades as transfection efficiency relative to the non-viral approaches. In this study, we developed a novel gene transfer carriers, nano-calcium-phosphate (CaP) that provides consiste...
