Research Abstract |
In this study, to enhance transfection efficiency by promoting the escape of the liposomes from the endosome to the cytosol and the nuclear localization of plasmid DNA, nuclear localization signals (NLS) peptides were used for condensing plasmid DNA encoding luciferase (pCMV-Luc) and embeding it into AG73-PEG liposomes. As a result, AG73-PEG liposomes showed selective gene delivery to cellsvia syndecan-2. Efficient gene transfection was observed. The efficacy was further enhanced in the combination of Bubble liposomes and US exposure. Thus, the combination of AG73-PEG liposomes with NLS peptides and BLs and US may be useful method to achieve selective and efficient gene delivery. This method may be also expected to a gene transfection system to mesenchymal stem cell in application of ex vivo non-viral gene therapy
