Two novel non-viral gene delivery vectors: low molecular weight polyethylenimine cross-linked by (2-hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin or (2-hydroxypropyl)-γ-cyclodextrin

Abstract

Two novel polymers of low molecular weight polyethylenimine cross-linked by (2-hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin or (2-hydroxypropyl)-γ-cyclodextrin showed lower cytotoxicity and higher transfection efficiency for the delivery of plasmid DNA compared with those of polyethylenimine (PEI, 25 kDa).
