Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration NP-CTX-R10 used at 20 µg/mL (Fe) for uptake assays; NP amounts varied for complexation tests
Rna Concentration siRNA feed concentration 5–50 µg/mL (complexation/size tests); functional assay used siRFP (amount not specified in SI)
Mixing Ratio NP:siRNA mass ratio 20:1 to 0.5:1 (HEPES pH 7.4); complexes incubated in serum media (37°C, 4 h) for stability test
Formulation Format Peptide-decorated iron oxide nanoparticle/siRNA complexes (NP-CTX-R10/siRNA)
Formulation Components Iron oxide NP + CCP-PEI polymer coating + CTX targeting peptide + R10 CPP; siRNA electrostatically complexed (NP:siRNA mass ratio varied).
