A vesicle system is described that possesses a pH-induced "breathing" feature and consists of a three-layered wall structure. The "breathing" feature consists of a highly reversible vesicle volume change by a factor of ca. 7, accompanied by diffusion

Here we investigate the potential of PCL-b-PEO micelles in preventing the cell death of isolated human islets of Langerhans. PCL-b-PEO micelles were loaded with c-Jun NH2-terminal kinases inhibitor SP600125 to rescue the isolated islets. Mechanistic

In this study, we compared two systems which can be applied for transfection in vitro and in vivo: polyplexes based on the polymer dextran-spermine (D-SPM) and lipoplexes based on 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane (DOTAP)/cholesterol. The carr

The self-assembly of the biamphiphilic triblock copolymer poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(caprolactone)-b-poly(acrylic acid) into polymer vesicles is studied. The vesicles provide both biocompatibility and biodegradability. Moreover, the biamphiphilic na

A study is presented of the preparation of gold nanoparticles incorporated into biodegradable micelles. Poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PEO-b-PCL) copolymer was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization, and the hydroxyl end group

Biodegradable water-soluble polysaccharide-spermine (SPM) polycation conjugates for nucleic acid delivery were synthesized by oxidizing polysaccharides using potassium periodate, followed by SPM conjugation. The polycations differ in their polysaccha

Cationic polysaccharides were synthesized by conjugation of various oligoamines to oxidized polysaccharides by reductive amination and tested for antiprion activity. Polycations of dextran, pullulan and arabinogalactan grafted with oligoamines of 2 t

Recently, a novel cationic polymer, dextran-spermine (D-SPM) was developed for gene delivery. An efficient transfection was obtained using this polycation for a variety of genes and cell lines in serum-free or serum-poor medium. However, transfection

Dextran polysaccharide was grafted by reductive-amination with mixtures of spermine and other natural/synthetic oligoamines of two to four amine groups. The transfection efficiencies of the polycations thus obtained were assessed in various cell line

DNA can be delivered into the cell nucleus either using physical means or specific carriers that carry the genes into the cells for gene expression). Various carriers for delivering genes have been investigated which can be divided into two main grou
