چکیده

Biocompatible DNA/gold nanoparticle complex with a protective calcium phosphate (CaP) coating was prepared by incubating DNA/gold nanoparticle complex coated by hyaluronic acid in SBF (simulated body fluid) with a Ca concentration above 2 mM. The CaP-coated DNA complex was revealed to have high compatibility with cells and resistance against enzymatic degradation. By immersion in acetate buffer (pH 4.5), the CaP capsule released the contained DNA complex. This CaP capsule including a DNA complex is promising as a sustained-release system of DNA complexes for gene therapy.

Calcium Acetate Versus Calcium Carbonate as Oral Phosphate Binder: Preparation and In Vitro Assessment

      Calcium acetate is used as an oral phosphate binder to control hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic renal failure. Compared to calcium carbonate, control of hyperphosphatemia can be achieved at lower calcium administration with calcium acetate which likely reduces the risk of hypercalcemia. In this study, various formulations of calcium acetate tablets were prepared and their disint...

Preparation of calcium phosphate nanoparticles and evaluation of their effects on muscle cells of rat

Calcium phosphate has been used for many years as a DNA delivery system. It has not been approved for use in the vaccine adjuvant system since it has been known for site-specific reaction in the muscle cells for irritant effects. Calcium phosphate nanoparticles have been shown to be a lesser irritant than the macroparticles. In the present study calcium phosphate nanoparticles were prepared wit...
