A NOVEL BIODEGRADABLE POLYESTERAMINE BASED ON POLYCAPROLACTONE DIACRYLATE AND POLYETHYLENIMINE AS A GENE CARRIER

摘要

A novel gene carrier is provided to reduce cytotoxicity and biodegradability, and improve gene deliver efficiency and complex-forming ability with DNA by using biodegradable polyesteramine based on polycaprolactone diacrylate and polyethyleneimine. A method for preparing a novel gene carrier comprises the steps of: independently dissolving polyethyleneimine and polycaprolactone diacrylate in anhydrous methyl alcohol; mixing the dissolved polyethyleneimine and polycaprolactone diacrylate; sealing the mixture with a solvent-resistant cover and reacting them at 40 deg. C for 24 hours; and subjecting the reaction product to dialysis with a membrane of 6,000-8,000 dalton at 4 deg. C for 24 hours. Further, a mol rate of the polycaprolactone diacrylate and the polyethyleneimine is 1:1 to 4.
