Abstract

Statement of Purpose: Effective cytosolic delivery of nucleic acids using non-viral vectors remains challenging due to their high net negative charge, susceptibility to nuclease degradation and high molecular weight. Here we demonstrate definitive improvements in polymer efficacy and efficiency for delivery of plasmid DNA over previous generation optimized materials by modulating degree of polymer branching, hydrophobicity, pH sensitivity and specific primary, secondary and tertiary amine content.
