Problems solved by technology

However, polyethyleneimine is highly toxic to cells, especially high molecular weight polyethyleneimine. Although it has a strong ability to penetrate cell membranes and a high gene transfection efficiency, it is more toxic and seriously affects its biological and medical applications. and agricultural applications

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of polymer modification, and in particular to a modified polyethyleneimine and application thereof in the preparation of a gene transfection vector reagent. According to the present invention, hydrophobic rosin acid or dehydroabietic acid is grafted onto polyethyleneimine to obtain the modified polyethyleneimine. The hydrophobic group of the modified polyethyleneimine forms a dense hydrophobic core with strong hydrophobicity due to the intermolecular forces in water, hydrophilic polyethyleneimine forms hydrophilic shell, thereby forming a nano micelles with shell-core structure, and nanoparticles with small particle size formed after DNA binding. The composite nanoparticles in smaller size gains tighter structure, so that composite nanoparticles are easier to pass through the cell membrane structure of a lipid bilayer, and the efficiency of transfection is improved. The modified polyethyleneimine can be applied to the preparation of gene transfection vectors and has the characteristics of high biological safety, high transfection efficiency, and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of polymer modification, in particular to a modified polyethyleneimine and its application in the preparation of gene transfection carrier reagents. Background technique [0002] Gene transfection technology refers to the transfer of exogenous nucleic acid with certain functions into target cells and expression in the cells to achieve the desired purpose. Therefore, as a key technology, it is widely used in gene therapy, agricultural biotechnology, and biopharmaceuticals Engineering and other fields. The introduction of exogenous genes into biological cells requires the use of gene transfection vectors. Currently, commonly used vectors are divided into two categories: viral vectors and non-viral vectors. Although the viral vector has a high transfection rate, it has a small capacity for exogenous genes (about 4.5-30kbp) and poor stability, and the viral DNA may replicate in the human body, which can induce the body t...
