Paper Cell penetrating PNA constructs regulate galanin receptor levels and modify pain transmission in viv
Peptide pAntp / Penetratin (Antennapedia 43–58)
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed yes
Label Confidence high
In Vitro Functional Effect yes
Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration 0.3–3 µM construct for binding assays (36 h); imaging 1 µM for 4 h
Rna Concentration 0.3–3 µM construct for binding assays (36 h); imaging 1 µM for 4 h
Mixing Ratio
Formulation Format Covalent CPP–PNA conjugate (disulfide-linked)
Formulation Components Carrier peptide (transportan or pAntp/penetratin) linked to cysteine-extended 21-mer PNA via disulfide bond; intracellular reduction releases PNA.
Size Nm
Zeta Mv
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells Bowes melanoma cells
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type in vitro functional antisense (receptor binding)
Output Value Decreased 125I-galanin binding; EC50 ~0.33 µM for h(18–38) conjugate (Table 1). pAntp shows preferential nuclear localization compared with transportan.
Output Units
Output Notes Binding assays in Bowes membranes after 36 h incubation at 37°C; confocal localization with avidin-TRITC for biotinylated PNA constructs. PNA sequence: GCCGTGCCCTCGCTGAGTTCCC (target human GalR1 mRNA).
