Paper Cyclic peptide-based nanostructures as efficient siRNA carriers
Peptide CP V
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed no
Label Confidence medium
In Vitro Functional Effect no
Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration Uptake: 30 µM (FACS) or ~8 µM (confocal). Knockdown: 24 µM.
Rna Concentration Uptake: 200 nM (FACS) or ~80 nM (confocal). Knockdown: 600 nM.
Mixing Ratio Confocal: 0.04 nmol FAM-siRNA + 4 nmol peptide in 500 µL DMEM, 30 min complexation. FACS: 200 nM FAM-siRNA + 30 µM peptide in Opti-MEM, 30 min. Western blot: 24 µM peptide + 600 nM GAPDH siRNA in 500 µL serum-free DMEM, 30 min; incubate cells 3 h then add complete media and culture 48 h.
Formulation Format Self-assembled cyclic peptide nanostructures / peptide–siRNA nanocomplexes (noncovalent)
Formulation Components CP V + GAPDH siRNA (FAM-labeled for uptake; unlabeled for knockdown)
Size Nm 195.20
Zeta Mv
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells HCT116 human colon cancer cells
Animal Model
Administration Route

Output Value
Output Units
Output Notes Did not significantly influence FAM-siRNA uptake (reported as not significant; data not shown). No functional gene-silencing result reported.
Toxicity Notes Cyclic peptides showed >90% viability at 10 µM (24 h). siRNA/peptide complexes showed no significant cytotoxicity except CP I showed some cytotoxicity relative to other complexes; lipofectamine 2000 showed significant cytotoxicity.
