| Experiment Id | EXP001761 |
|---|---|
| Paper | Cell penetrating PNA constructs regulate galanin receptor levels and modify pain transmission in viv |
| Peptide | Transportan |
| 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) |
| Rna Concentration | ~0.3–3 µM construct for binding assays (36 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. |
