摘要:
A complex is described that is deliverable to a cell comprising inserting a nucleic acid or other cargo into a reverse micelle. The reverse micelle has the property to compact the nucleic acid for easier delivery.
摘要:
Disclosed is a complex for providing nucleic acid expression in a cell. A polynucleotide and a polymer are mixed together to form the complex wherein the zeta potential of the complex is not positive. Then the complex is delivered to the cell wherein the nucleic acid is expressed.
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:
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:
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:
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 complex is described for delivery to a cell comprising inserting a nucleic acid into a reverse micelle. The reverse micelle has the property to compact the nucleic acid for easier delivery. Other molecules are used to interact with the nucleic acid—micelle complex to further enhance delivery such as a surfactant having a disulfide bond.
