PEG stabilized DNA - poly(ferrocenylsilane) polyplexes for gene delivery

Polycationic poly(ferrocenylsilane)s (PFS) with tunable amounts of PEG side chains were used for the condensation of DNA into polyplexes of 110 nm in 5.0 mM HEPES. The PFS-PEG/DNA polyplexes showed negligible aggregation, a strongly reduced protein adsorption, transfection activities comparable with...

Zusammenfassung:Polycationic poly(ferrocenylsilane)s (PFS) with tunable amounts of PEG side chains were used for the condensation of DNA into polyplexes of 110 nm in 5.0 mM HEPES. The PFS-PEG/DNA polyplexes showed negligible aggregation, a strongly reduced protein adsorption, transfection activities comparable with linear polyethyleneimine and an excellent cytocompatibility.
