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:
Disclosed is a process for transfecting genetic material into a mammalian cell to alter endogenous properties of the cell. The process comprises designing a polynucleotide for transfection. Then the polynucleotide is inserted into a mammalian vessel such as a tail vein or artery. Prior to insertion, subsequent to insertion, or concurrent with insertion the permeability of the vessel is increased thereby the genetic material is delivered to the parenchymal cell altering endogenous properties of the cell.
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:
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.

摘要:
An process for the reversible modification of membrane interaction of a compound is described. Modification of membrane interaction can be used to facilitate delivery of molecules to cells in vitro and in vivo. The described modifiers, which are used to reversibly inactivate the membrane active compounds, can also be utilized as cross-linkers or to reverse the charge of a molecule.
摘要:
A method of forming polymers in the presence of nucleic acid using template polymerization. These methods can be used for the delivery of nucleic acids, for condensing the nucleic acid, for forming nucleic acid binding polymers, for forming supramolecular complexes containing nucleic acid and polymer, and for forming an interpolyelectrolyte complex.

摘要:
A labile disulfide-containing compound under physiological conditions, comprising: the disulfide-containing compound having a labile disulfide bond that is either a disulfide bond that is cleaved more rapidly than oxidized glutathione or a disulfide bond constructed from thiols in which one of the constituent thiols has a lower pKa than glutathione or a disulfide bond that is activated by intramolecular attack from a free thiol.
