Peptide CC9
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed yes
Label Confidence high
In Vitro Functional Effect yes
Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration CC9 content ~8.23 wt% on polymer for PC-CC9-10% feed (supporting info); free CC9 not added
Rna Concentration miR-34a 0.15 µM per well (6-well) for qRT-PCR; 0.15 µM FAM-siRNA for uptake (2 µg per well) at N/P 25
Mixing Ratio N/P = 30 (polymer N to miRNA phosphate)
Formulation Format PC-CC9/miRNA polyplex (covalent peptide-conjugated polymer)
Formulation Components PEI600-β-cyclodextrin (PC) covalently conjugated with CC9 (optimal: PC-CC9-10% feed) complexed with miR-34a at N/P 30
Size Nm 225.00
Zeta Mv 8.60
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells PANC-1 (pancreatic cancer) (primary in vitro efficacy); BxPC-3 also tested; 293T as normal control
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type In vitro functional effects: miR-34a upregulation (qRT-PCR), cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, migration inhibition, target gene downregulation
Output Value miR-34a expression substantially increased vs PBS/free miR-34a; apoptosis ~41% (Annexin V/PI) for PC-CC9/miR-34a; reduced E2F3/Bcl-2/c-myc/cyclin D1
Output Units
Output Notes Targeting effect specific to tumor cells (uptake enhancement not observed in 293T). Low cytotoxicity by MTT.
Toxicity Notes Low cytotoxicity in PANC-1/BxPC-3/293T (MTT, supporting info).
