Abstract

Novel biocompatible polymeric gene carriers have been examined for their potential in treating various genetic and acquired diseases. The use of polymeric gene carriers may overcome the current problems associated with viral vectors in safety, immunogenicity, and mutagenesis. However, effective polymer-based gene therapy requires the control of cellular access and uptake, intracellular trafficking, and nuclear retention of plasmid DNA. Inefficient endosomal release, cytoplasmic transport, and nuclear entry of plasmids are currently limiting factors in the use of polymers for effective plasmid-based gene therapy. Therefore, several different polymeric gene carriers have been designed recently in an attempt to overcome these problems. This review explores the conceptual and experimental aspects of polymer-based gene delivery and presents an overview on the recent use of polymers to enhance the effectiveness of plasmid-based systems. Despite their current limitations, polymeric carriers have significant potential as commercially viable gene medicines.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
