Research Abstract |
In this research, we attempted to improve cell specificity of gene delivery system with multiple securities. Thus, cationic polyethyleneimine and hydrophobic chain were introduced into our previously developed intracellular signal-responsive gene carrier. The carrier improved cancer cell specificity dramatically. Then, PEG chains were also incorporated into the carrier with pH-labile manner to stabilize the polyplex with DNA in blood circulation. Obtained carrier realized 1300 times activation in cancer cell against normal cell condition.
