Paper Design and characterization of a new peptide vector for short interfering RNA delivery
Peptide GL1
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed yes
Label Confidence high
In Vitro Functional Effect yes
Endosomal Escape Evidence no
Peptide Concentration
Rna Concentration 100 nM for uptake assays (4 h, with serum); 50 nM for gene silencing assays (52 h, complete medium)
Mixing Ratio MR 40:1 (peptide:siRNA molar ratio)
Formulation Format noncovalent peptide/siRNA nanocomplex
Formulation Components GL1 + siRNA (electrostatic + hydrophobic interactions)
Size Nm 80.00
Zeta Mv 10.00
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro (with serum)
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells CHO-K1 (Chinese hamster ovary)
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type Uptake (FACS %) + functional gene knockdown (qRT-PCR)
Output Value Uptake ~84% at MR40 (with serum); GAPDH mRNA knockdown ~47% (MR40)
Output Units
Output Notes In serum-containing medium, GL1/siRNA complexes become negatively charged and retain uptake comparable to Lipofectamine 2000; silencing decreases vs serum-free.
Toxicity Notes Cell viability >85% across tested molar ratios; higher than Lipofectamine 2000 (~70%)
Curation Notes
