Peptide HRss2
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed no
Label Confidence high
In Vitro Functional Effect yes
Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration N/P=10 formulation; polymer amount depends on N/P (1.06 µg polymer per 1 µg siRNA corresponds to N/P=1)
Rna Concentration 70 nM siLuc (gene silencing vs N/P, 24 h); also tested 100 nM for decay kinetics
Mixing Ratio N/P ratio (amine/phosphate); optimum reported N/P=10
Formulation Format Electrostatic polyplex (SHR/SHRss variants with siRNA) prepared in PBS pH 6.0, incubated 30 min
Formulation Components SHRss (or control polymer) + siLuc in PBS (pH 6.0)
Size Nm
Zeta Mv
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells Luc-Hela cells
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type In vitro functional gene silencing (luciferase activity reduction)
Output Value Significant luciferase knockdown; SHRss2 reported highest silencing at N/P=10 vs other SHRss and SHR
Output Units
Output Notes Reporter assay at 24 h post-transfection; luminescence normalized to protein; SHRss2 also showed slower knockdown decay over 5 days after single 100 nM siLuc treatment.
Toxicity Notes Low cytotoxicity reported for SHRss polyplexes (>90% viability up to 200 nM siRNA under transfection conditions).
