The primary challenge for gene therapy is to develop a method that delivers a therapeutic gene (transgene) to selected cells where proper gene expression can be achieved. Gene therapy using viral or synthetic vectors is currently one of the most promising strategies for many diseases. Cationic lipid–DNA complexes have emerged as one of the major non-viral DNA delivery tools. An ideal gene deliv...

Gelatin is a natural biocompatible, nontoxic, edible and an inexpensive molecule. These properties result in its wide applications and recently it has been used for the delivery of the gene therapeutic entities such as plasmid DNA and paclitaxel drug based delivery for the various types of Cancer cells including Bladder cancer cells and prostate cancer cells. Generally, gelatin nanoparticles ca...
