摘要:
Chelator containing compounds are utilized in the delivery of molecules and polymers to animal cells. At least one chelator such as crown ether is attached to a polymer and then associated with another polymer. An ion is then added to the mixture thereby forming condensed polymer. In condensed form and in complex with the chelator, polymer can be delivered to a cell.
摘要:
We describe pH-sensitive endosomolytic polymers, delivery particles containing pH-sensitive endosomolytic polymers. The described particles are capable of delivering polynucleotides to cells from the peripheral circulation with subsequent release from endosomes. The endosomolytic polymers are inactive outside the cell but disrupt membranes upon exposure to an acidified endosomal compartment.
摘要:
Methods are described for modifying nucleic acids to facilitate delivery of the nucleic acids to cells. Compounds which interact with of modify nucleic acids are interacted with the nucleic acids within reverse micelles.
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 method of forming polymers in the presence of nucleic acid using template polymerization. Also, a method of having the polymerization occur in heterophase systems. 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:
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.
摘要:
The invention provides for polycations for condensation and delivery of polynucleotides to cells. Processes for forming the polycations by the polymerization of formamide monomers is also described.
摘要:
Disclosed is a process for providing for expression of an exogenous nucleic acid in an extravascular parenchymal cell of a mammal. The nucleic acid is inserted into a vessel of a mammal and the permeability of the vessel is increased. Increasing permeability of the vessel allows delivery of the nucleic acid to an extravascular parenchymal cell.
