Problems solved by technology

Although the research on the interaction between non-viral gene carriers and DNA has received attention, a major limitation of the commonly used cationic polymers as gene carriers lies in the heterogeneity of the size and valence state of the polymer molecules. The uniformity directly leads to the difference in the prepared vector / DNA structure, which brings great difficulties to the release research in vivo

Abstract

The invention relates to an application of a cationic imidazole Gemini surfactant [Cn-s-Cnim]Br2 in gene transfection. A non-viral gene vector is the cationic imidazole Gemini surfactant ([C12-4-C12im]Br2); and a [C12-4-C12im]Br2 solution prepared by a buffering solution can be directly applied in the gene transfection. The invention also provides a method of a [C12-4-C12im]Br2 / DNA nanocomposite formed by effectively inducing DNA with [C12-4-C12im]Br2. High-efficiency transfection of the genes in cells by adding a buffering solution of the [C12-4-C12im]Br2 / DNA nanocomposite to receptor cells. The [Cn-s-Cnim]Br2 and the [C12-4-C12im]Br2 / DNA nanocomposite have relatively high gene transfection efficiency for various cells, and have relatively low cytotoxicity for transfection cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to cationic imidazole Gemini surfactant [C n -s-C n im]Br 2 The application in gene transfection belongs to the technical field of biomedicine. Background technique [0002] The development of molecular biology has made gene therapy of diseases at the molecular level possible. The whole process of gene therapy is that the target gene enters the cell under the carrier and realizes gene correction and gene replacement, etc., to correct or compensate for diseases caused by gene defects and abnormalities, or to achieve the purpose of treatment by interfering with the expression of specific genes, etc. ( See Qasba, P.K. et al., DNA and Gene Therapy: Transfer of Mouse DNA to Human and Mouse Embryonic Cells by Polyoma Pseudovirions, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 1971, 68, 2345-2349; and Xia, H.B. et al., siRNA -mediated gene silencing in vitro and in vivo, Nat.Biotechnol.2002, 20, 1006-1010), one of the key issues of gene therap...
