Peptide WRAP5
Delivery Success Class yes
In Vivo Flag yes
Uptake Confirmed yes
Label Confidence high
In Vitro Functional Effect
Endosomal Escape Evidence yes
Peptide Concentration Peptide:siRNA molar ratio R = 20; peptide concentration not separately reported.
Rna Concentration
Mixing Ratio WRAP5:siRNA molar ratio R = 20; preincubated 30 min at room temperature in 5% glucose.
Formulation Format peptide-based nanoparticle / non-covalent CPP:siRNA complex
Formulation Components WRAP5:siRNA peptide-based nanoparticles formulated in 5% glucose; peptide:siRNA molar ratio R = 20; siFluc or siSCR; fluorescent siFluc-Alexa790/Cy3 included for imaging in some experiments.
Size Nm 80.00
Zeta Mv 28.80
Model Scope in_vivo
Model Type in vivo subcutaneous U87 xenograft reporter silencing
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells U87-CMV/Fluc+Nluc+ human glioblastoma cells
Animal Model NSG mice bearing subcutaneous U87-CMV/Fluc+Nluc+ xenograft tumors
Administration Route intratumoral injection
Output Type in vivo reporter-gene knockdown
Output Value ~70% reduction in Fluc/Nluc-normalized bioluminescence at day 1 after WRAP5:siFluc injection; Fluc mRNA reduced by qRT-PCR at day 2; fluorescence remained in tumor up to 10 days.
Output Units
Output Notes Functional in vivo reporter knockdown was demonstrated by bioluminescence imaging and qRT-PCR; Nluc served as tumor-growth/internal control.
Toxicity Notes No toxicity reported; in vivo Fluc silencing occurred without apparent tumor-growth effect because this was a reporter proof-of-concept.
