摘要:
Disclosed is a system for providing in vivo delivery of polynucleotides to mammalian prostate cells using an intravascular administration route. The polynucleotides are inserted in an injection solution into a mammalian vasculature. Insertion of the injection solution at an appropriate rate increases the volume of extravascular fluid in the tissue thereby facilitating delivery of the polynucleotide to the cell.
摘要:
Compounds and methods are provided for a single-pot covalent attachment of a label to nucleic acids comprising forming a covalently attachable labeling reagent for alkylating the molecule. Then, combining the covalently attachable labeling reagent with a mixture containing the molecule, under conditions wherein the labeling reagent has reactivity with the molecule thereby forming a covalent bond.
摘要:
Cyclic amidinium containing compounds and their methods of preparation are described. Compositions containing these compounds facilitate delivery of biologically active polymers to cells in vitro and in vivo.
摘要:
We describe compounds that bind to and are internalized by hepatocytes. Association of these compounds to other molecules or complexes can be used to target the molecules or complexes to hepatocytes in vivo or in vitro.
摘要:
An ionic polymer is utilized in “recharging” (another layer having a different charge) a condensed polynucleotide complex for purposes of nucleic acid delivery to a cell. The resulting recharged complex can be formed with an appropriate amount of positive or negative charge such that the resulting complex has the desired net charge.
摘要:
A system relating to the delivery of desired compounds (e.g., drugs and nucleic acids) into cells using pH-sensitive delivery systems. The system provides compositions and methods for the delivery and release of a compound to a cell.
摘要:
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for transferring nucleic acids into cells in vitro and in vivo. The compositions comprise a transfection reagent and one or more detergents. In preferred embodiments, the compositions comprise delivery systems providing nucleic acid transfer complexes that transfect cells with high efficiency.
摘要:
Processes are described for obtaining high levels of gene expression in primates after injection of nucleic acid to the liver via the lumen of the hepatic vein. The described process results in high level of gene expression with transient increases in liver enzymes.
摘要:
Described is a deliverable composition with low toxicity comprising an amphipathic compound, a polycation, and a siRNA. The composition may be used in the process of delivering a siRNA to an animal cell or more particularly, a mammal cell.
摘要:
An polyampholyte is utilized in a condensed polynucleotide complex for purposes of nucleic acid delivery to a cell. The complex can be formed with an appropriate amount of positive and/or negative charge such that the resulting complex can be delivered to the extravascular space and may be further delivered to a cell.
