Popis: Nucleic acid-based therapeutics, including plasmid DNA (pDNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA), have been considered highly promising strategies to treat a gamut of diseases.[1] Successful nucleic acid delivery relies on the development of safe and efficient delivery vectors. Viral vectors have dominated as the delivery vehicles used in clinical trials but their progress has been hampered by their immunogenicity, safety risks and high manufacturing cost.[2] Therefore, the use of non-viral vectors such as cationic polymer-based vectors that offer advantages over viral vectors in these aspects has attracted broad attention.[3-4]
