The gene transfection and endocytic uptake pathways mediated by PEGylated PEI-entrapped gold nanoparticles
The development of gene vectors is the vital step in gene therapy. The cationic polymer polyethylenimine (PEI) is widely applied as an efficient and low cost nonviral gene vehicle. However, its further practical applications in gene therapy are limited due to its high cytotoxicity. To obtain safe an...
