Polymeric Nanocarriers for Non-Viral Gene Delivery
Abstract
Gene therapy holds great promise for the treatment of acquired and inherited diseases. Non-viral gene delivery systems are gaining recognition as alternatives to viral gene vectors due to their safety and low immunogenicity. The effective delivery of nucleic acids requires overcoming many biological barriers that would otherwise hinder transfection efficiency. Developing safe and efficient vectors that can overcome these obstacles is at the heart of current gene delivery research. Polymeric nanocarriers, such as polyethylenimine (PEI), poly(L-lysine) (PLL), poly[2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate] (PDMAEMA), polyamidoamine (PAMAM), chitosan and poly(amino-co-ester)s (PAEs), play an important role in gene delivery. In this review, we first describe the current understanding of the biological barriers to non-viral gene delivery and recent progress in addressing these barriers. Several of the most widely used non-viral polymeric nanocarriers are discussed, and detailed strategies that have accumulated from nearly two decades of research aimed at overcoming biological barriers and improving gene transfer are highlighted.

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.
