| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed an innovative technology to deliver useful biomolecules into cells by utilizing freeze concentration phenomenon in which substances are eliminated from ice crystals upon freezing and unfrozen phases are concentrated. When the cells are frozen in the presence of the cryoprotectant, the extracellular solution is first frozen and the residual water is concentrated. By adding a biomolecules to be delivered into a cell to a carrier with high interaction with the cell membrane, the complex is concentrated near the cell membrane at the time of freezing. After thawing, the concentrated carriers are taken into cells by endocytosis without diffusing due to strong interaction, escape from the endosome, transfer to the cytoplasm and exert its function. By this method, efficient intracellular transport method such as protein and gene was proposed.
