BACKGROUND/AIM: This study investigated the co-delivery of plasmid DNA and antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotide (AS ODN) into carcinoma cells by cholic acid-modified polyethylenimine (PEI-CA).
PEI-CA/plasmid DNA and AS ODN complexes were formulated and evaluated for delivery of plasmid DNA and AS ODN in HeLa cells. The efficiency of co-delivery of plasmid DNA and AS ODN was evaluated by cell growth inhibition using p53 and bcl-2 AS ODN.
AS ODN intracellular delivery and green fluorescent protein expression upon cellular transfection were greater than in cells treated with uncomplexed nucleic acids. Treatment of the cells with PEI-CA/p53 plasmid DNA and bcl-2 AS ODN complexes resulted in cell growth inhibition that was greater than that of either PEI-CA/p53 plasmid DNA complexes or PEI-CA/bcl-2 AS ODN complexes alone.
The co-delivery of p53 plasmid DNA and bcl-2 AS ODN in PEI-CA complexes enhanced therapeutic activities of both p53 plasmid DNA and bcl-2 AS ODN.
背景/目的:本研究探讨了胆酸修饰的聚乙烯亚胺(PEI-CA)将质粒DNA和反义寡脱氧核苷酸(AS ODN)共递送至癌细胞的情况。
制备了PEI-CA/质粒DNA和AS ODN复合物,并评估其在HeLa细胞中递送质粒DNA和AS ODN的能力。使用p53和bcl-2 AS ODN通过细胞生长抑制来评估质粒DNA和AS ODN的共递送效率。
细胞转染后,AS ODN的细胞内递送和绿色荧光蛋白表达高于未复合核酸处理的细胞。用PEI-CA/p53质粒DNA和bcl-2 AS ODN复合物处理细胞导致的细胞生长抑制大于单独的PEI-CA/p53质粒DNA复合物或PEI-CA/bcl-2 AS ODN复合物。
PEI-CA复合物中共递送p53质粒DNA和bcl-2 AS ODN增强了p53质粒DNA和bcl-2 AS ODN的治疗活性。
