摘要: Chitosan was partially converted to its chlorohydrin derivative by the reaction with epichlohydrin, which subsequently reacted varying amounts of lPEI(2.5 kD) obtain a series chitosan-lPEI(2.5 copolymers (CP). These were then characterized and evaluated in terms transfection efficiency (in vitro vivo), cell viability, DNA release buffering capacity. The CP-4 copolymer (the best among CP series) showed enhanced (-2 - 24 folds) comparison chitosan, kD), bPEI(25 Lipofectamine HEK293, HeLa CHO cells. capacity pH range 3 7.5), as shown confocal microscopy, DNA-release capability copolymers, found be significantly over chitosan. Intravenous administration CP-4/DNA polyplex mice followed reporter gene analysis highest expression spleen. Collectively, these results demonstrate potential safe efficient nonviral vector.
