Synthesis of cell-permeable peptide nucleic acids and characterization of their hybridization and uptake properties.

چکیده
Guanidine-based peptide nucleic acid (GPNA) monomers and oligomers containing all four natural (adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T)) and two unnatural (2-thiouracil (sU) and 2,6-diaminopurine (D)) nucleobases have been synthesized. Thermal denaturation study showed that GPNA oligomers containing alternate D-backbone configuration bind sequence-specifically to DNA and, when incubated with mammalian cells, localized specifically to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Background & Objectives: Antisense peptide nucleic acids (PNA) that target growth essential genes show potent bactericidal properties without cell lysis. We considered the possibility that whether PNA treatment influence the bacteria total nucleic acids content and apply approach to develop a new delivery system to Dendritic cells (DCs). DCs are the most potent antigen presenting cells in th...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cell Penetrating Peptide Delivery System on HPV16E7 Expression in Three Types of Cell Line
Background: The poor permeability of the plasma and nuclear membranes to DNA plasmids are two major barriers for the development of these therapeutic molecules. Therefore, success in gene therapy approaches depends on the development of efficient and safe non-viral delivery systems. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro delivery of plasmid DNA encoding HPV16 E7 gene...

Objective(s): Lipid-based nanoparticles (NLP) are PEGylated carriers composed of lipids and encapsulated nucleic acids with a diameter less than 100 nm. The presence of PEG in the NLP formulation improves the particle pharmacokinetic behavior. The purpose of this study was to prepare and characterize NLPs containing MDR1 siRNA and evaluate their cytotoxicity and cellular uptake. MDR1 siRNA coul...
متن کاملPolyanionic Carboxyethyl Peptide Nucleic Acids (ce-PNAs): Synthesis and DNA Binding
New polyanionic modifications of polyamide nucleic acid mimics were obtained. Thymine decamers were synthesized from respective chiral α- and γ-monomers, and their enantiomeric purity was assessed. Here, we present the decamer synthesis, purification and characterization by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and an investigation of the hybridization properties of the decamers. We show that the modifie...
