Original Source: Cellular Delivery and Antisense Effects of Peptide Nucleic Acid Conjugated to Polyethyleneimine via Disulfide Linkers.
Peptide nucleic acid (PNA) is potentially an attractive antisense and antigene agent for which more efficient cellular delivery systems are still warranted. The cationic polymer polyethylenimine (PEI) is commonly used for cellular transfection of DNA and RNA complexes, but is not readily applicable for PNA due to the (inherent) charge neutrality of PNA. However, PEI could function as an efficient scaffold for PNA via chemical conjugation. Accordingly, we modified PEI with the amine-reactive heterobifunction...

A Molecular Umbrella Approach to the Intracellular Delivery of Small Interfering RNA.
A series of diwalled and tetrawalled molecular umbrellas have been synthesized using cholic acid, spermidine, and lysine as starting materials. Coupling of these molecular umbrellas to an octaarginine...
