The invention discloses a gold nanorods based
drug carrier. The carrier is characterized in that: gold nanorods is wrapped with a polyanion film layer, a polycation film layer and an
hTERT gene antisense
oligonucleotide layer from inside to outside. The gold nanorods based
drug carrier is prepared by the layer-by-layer self-
assembly principle by utilizing the electrostatic force among radicals, and can be used for preparing inhibitors for malignant tumor
cell telomerase. The invention causes
hTERT gene antisense
oligonucleotide to be loaded on the gold nanorods for the first time to solve the problem of low
transfection rate occurred in naked antisense
oligonucleotide. The prepared gold nanorods based
drug carrier does not only has the advantages of high
transfection rate, strong targeting property, obvious effect of inhibiting the activity of the malignant tumor
cell telomerase, and the like, but also has the advantages of safety and innocuity, which opens up a new way for the application of the gold nanorods in the
biomedicine field; in addition, the invention has the advantages of simple operation for the preparation technology and low cost, and is suitable for scale production.
