چکیده

Polycations have been used as nonviral gene carriers because the polycations and DNAs form stable complexes in a noncovalent manner (1-3). The polycations, e.g., poly(L-lysine) (PLL), are reported to be conjugated with several ligands for targeted gene delivery (4-8). The physicochemical properties of the DNA complexes have been described as factors that influence transfection activity (9-11).

Synthesis and self-assembly of a fluorine- containing amphiphilic graft copolymer bearing a perfluorocyclobutyl aryl ether-based backbone and poly(acrylic acid) side chains†

A series of fluorine-containing amphiphilic graft copolymers consisting of a semi-fluorinated poly(2methyl-1,4-bistrifluorovinyloxybenzene) (PMBTFVB) backbone and hydrophilic poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) side chains was synthesized by the combination of thermal cycloaddition polymerization and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) through the grafting-from strategy. 2-Methyl-1,4-bistrifluorov...

Two-Sided Comb Poly(amic ester)–Poly(propylene oxide) Graft Copolymers as Porous Polyimide Precursors

New step-growth graft block copolymers were synthesized. These two-sided comb copolymers consisted of a poly(amic ester) (PAE) backbone and pendant poly(propylene oxide) (PPO) grafts. The copolymers were made via a macromonomer approach, in which the 4,6-bischlorocarbonyl isophthalic acid bis[poly(propylene oxide)] ester macromonomer was synthesized through the reaction of hydroxyl-terminated P...

Hydrophilization of Poly(Caprolactone) Copolymers through Introduction of Oligo(Ethylene Glycol) Moieties

In this study, a new family of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) copolymers that bear oligo(ethylene glycol) (OEG) moieties is described. The synthesis of three different oligo(ethylene glycol) functionalized epoxide monomers derived from 2-methyl-4-pentenoic acid, and their copolymerization with ε-caprolactone (CL) to poly(CL-co-OEG-MPO) copolymers is presented. The statistical copolymerization initi...

Strongly adsorbed comb copolymers with rigid side chains.

We study the conformational behavior in a plane of a comb copolymer molecule, consisting of a semiflexible backbone and rigid side chains interacting via a van der Waals potential. Using a mean-field approach, two different regimes are distinguished depending on the strength of the attraction between the side chains. In the weak attraction limit the side chains are oriented preferably perpendic...

Synthesis and Thermal Properties of Novel Biodegradable ABCBA Pentablock Copolymers from Poly (Ethylene glycol), L-Lactide and p-Dioxanone

In this work, new biodegradable ABCBA type pentablock copolymers with different mole ratio of L-lactide and PPDO-b-PEG-b-PPDO triblock copolymer were synthesized and characterized. In the first step, PPDO-b-PEG-b-PPDO triblock copolymer was synthesized via a ring-opening polymerization of P-DiOxanone (PDO) monomer with Poly (Ethylene Glycol) (P...
