Thiolated PAMAM dendrimer-coated CdSe/ZnSe nanoparticles as protein transfection agents.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Functionalisation of PAMAM dendrimers with a small number of thiol groups makes them good ligands for CdSe/ZnSe nanoparticles; the particles coated with thiolated dendrimers have good cell permeability and are potent transfection agents.

SRL-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 کاملTernary complex of plasmid DNA electrostatically assembled with polyamidoamine dendrimer and chondroitin sulfate for effective and secure gene delivery.
The purpose of this study was to develop a ternary complex of plasmid DNA (pDNA) electrostatically assembled with polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer and chondroitin sulfate (CS) for effective and secure gene delivery. PAMAM dendrimers are new cationic polymers that are expected to be used as gene delivery vectors. However, cationic non-viral gene vectors showed cytotoxicity by binding to negative...

The use of tumor-specific therapeutic agents is a promising option for efficient and safe nonviral gene transfer in gene therapy. In this study, we describe the efficacy of polyamidoamine (PAMAM)-based nonviral gene delivery carriers, namely, an ornithine conjugated PAMAM (PAMAM-O) dendrimer in delivering apoptin, a tumor-specific killer gene, into human hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2 cells) a...
