摘要:
A class of polymers for delivery of polynucleotides to cells in described. More specifically, amphiphilic polyvinylethers and compositions containing amphiphilic polyvinylethers are described.
摘要:
A process for delivering a nucleic acid to a cardiac tissue cell in a mammal is described, comprising introducing a composition consisting of a nucleic acid to a blood vessel, which subsequently delivers the nucleic acid to the cardiac tissue cell. The nucleic acid can be DNA or RNA or plasmid DNA or viral. This process is for purposes of gene therapy, and research.
摘要:
A process for delivering a polynucleotide into a parenchymal cell in a mammal, comprising, transporting the polynucleotide into a vessel communicating with the parenchymal cell in tissue or organ of the mammal such that the polynucleotide is transfected into the parenchymal cell. More specifically, the polynucleotide consists of a viral vector.
摘要:
Described is a composition with low toxicity comprising an amphipathic compound and a polycation, useful for delivering siRNA to a cell. The composition may be used in the process of delivering a siRNA to an animal cell, or more particularly a mammal cell, in a multi-well format.
摘要:
Described is a process for delivering a biologically active compound to a cell by reversibly linking the compound to a membrane active polymer. In particular, polymer-polynucleotide conjugates are described. Methods for reversibly modifying the polymers to decrease cellular toxicity and improve efficacy are provided.
摘要:
Disclosed is expression of zeta negative and zeta positive nucleic acids or nucleic acid complexes using a dystrophin gene in a process for providing nucleic acid expression in a striated (skeletal or cardiac) muscle cell for the purpose of providing a change to the endogenous properties of the cell for cells affected by muscular dystrophy.
