Reporter gene studies for nanoparticle mediated DNA and siRNA delivery.
Kovářová, Barbora ; Jirkovská, Anna (advisor) ; Hofman, Jakub (referee)
Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Department of Biochemical Sciences University of Vienna, Faculty center for Pharmacy, Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Laboratory of MacroMolecular Cancer Therapeutics Candidate: Barbora Kovářová Supervisor (Charles University): PharmDr. Anna Jirkovská, Ph.D. Supervisor (University of Vienna): Univ. Prof. Dipl. Ing. Dr. Manfred Ogris Co-supervisor (University of Vienna): Dr. Haider Sami, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: Reporter gene studies for nanoparticle mediated DNA and siRNA delivery Keywords: transfection, plasmid DNA, siRNA, nanoparticles Gene therapy is a promising field offering potential in several currently incurable diseases. Gene therapy is mediated by modulation of gene expression in specific cells by delivering exogenous nucleic acids. One of current tasks of nucleic acid delivery is exploring several synthetic vectors which would have a potential to overcome the disadvantages of commonly used viral vectors. The present study focused on different types of polyethyleneimine-based nanoparticles for plasmid DNA (pDNA) and small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery. Integration of imaging contrast agents with gene delivery vehicles is advantageous for tracking the gene delivery process both in vivo and in vitro. Gadolinium...
