摘要
Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) derivative having both carboxylic acid-, and lactose-side chains (Lac-PEG-C) deposited onto the surface of DNA/protamine (PRT) complex, and the self-assembled ternary complex was obtained. The diameter of the complexes was 180-200 nm, and they showed good size stability even in the high ionic strength solutions. Lac-PEG-C coating reduced their surface electric potential, and effectively avoided the albumin-induced aggregation. DNA/PRT/Lac-PEG-C complex did not coagulate the red blood cells, and their cytotoxicity evaluated by WST-1 was very low. Lac-PEG-C added to the plasmid/PRT complex prior to the incubation with HepG2 cells extremely enhanced the gene-expression, and by the plasmid/PRT/Lac-PEG-C complex prepared at 1:1.5:8 in weight, 56-fold higher expression of luciferase than that without Lac-PEG-C was observed. The treatment with asialofetuin or phenylarsine oxide evidently interfered with the gene-expression. The high gene expression by the plasmid/PRT/Lac-PEG-C ternary complex on the hepatocyte would be attributed to the asialoglycoprotein receptor-mediated endocytosis. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd.
