Conjugation of polyamidoamine dendrimers on biodegradable microparticles for nonviral gene delivery.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report on the preparation and characterization of poly(D, L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microparticles with surface-conjugated polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers of varying generations. The buffering capacity and zeta-potential of the PLGA PAMAM microparticles increased with increasing generation level of the PAMAM dendrimer conjugated. Conjugation of the PAMAM dendrimer to the surface of the PLGA microparticle removed generation-dependent cytotoxicity in HEK293 and COS7 cell lines. PLGA PAMAM pDNA microparticles displayed similar cytotoxicity profiles to unmodified PLGA pDNA microparticles in COS7 cells. A generation three PAMAM dendrimer conjugated to PLGA microparticles significantly increased transfection efficiencies in comparison to unmodified PLGA microparticles.

We report, for the first time, on the preparation, characterization and in vitro testing of poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microparticles loaded with polyamidoamine (PAMAM)-plasmid DNA (pDNA) dendriplexes. Loading of pDNA into the PLGA microparticles increased by 150% when pDNA was first complexed with PAMAM dendrimers relative to loading of pDNA alone. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)...

Human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are considered a potential cell source for MSC-based bone regeneration, but improvements in the proliferation and differentiation capacity of MSCs are necessary for practical applications. Estrogen effectively improves MSC capabilities and has strong potential as a regulator of MSCs. The aim of this study was to develop a delivery system that p...
متن کاملA novel EGFR-targeted gene delivery system based on complexes self-assembled by EGF, DNA, and activated PAMAM dendrimers
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted gene delivery is a promising approach in gene therapy against EGFR-positive cancer. In addition, macromolecules, such as polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers, are potential nonviral gene carriers in this therapy because of their biocompatibility and modifiable features. To achieve the goal of selectively enhancing the transfection efficiency in EGFR...
