Paper Cell penetrating peptide conjugated bioreducible polymer for siRNA delivery
Peptide PCM + Tat conjugated polymer
Delivery Success Class no
In Vivo Flag no
Uptake Confirmed yes
Label Confidence high
In Vitro Functional Effect yes
Endosomal Escape Evidence
Peptide Concentration Polymer carrier; used as polyplex at weight ratio (polymer:siRNA) = 20 (key apoptosis/knockdown assays).
Rna Concentration 50 nM siRNA (key hypoxia apoptosis assays); SHP-1 screening also at 25–100 nM.
Mixing Ratio Weight ratio (polymer:siRNA) = 20 (apoptosis assays); peptide-modified polymer mixed 1:1 with unmodified CD prior to complexation.
Formulation Format Peptide-conjugated bioreducible polymer/siRNA polyplex
Formulation Components PCM-CD-Tat (peptide-conjugated poly(CBA-DAH) (cystamine bisacrylamide–diaminohexane bioreducible polymer)) + siRNA | Peptides (PCM and/or Tat) conjugated to poly(CBA-DAH) via SM(PEG)2; peptide-modified polymers mixed 1:1 with unmodified CD to form effective polyplexes.
Size Nm 197.30
Zeta Mv 24.60
Model Scope in_vitro
Model Type in vitro
Cell Lines Or Primary Cells H9C2 rat cardiomyocytes (hypoxia-mimic CoCl2 + serum deprivation for apoptosis model)
Animal Model
Administration Route
Output Type In vitro functional RNA effect: gene silencing + anti-apoptotic phenotype
Output Value Fas mRNA knockdown (qRT-PCR) and reduced apoptosis under hypoxia (Annexin V/PI; increased MTT viability; reduced LDH).
Output Units
Output Notes Most effective suppression with PCM+Tat polyplex vs other carriers (reported in Fig. 6 and apoptosis figures).
Toxicity Notes MTT/LDH indicate improved viability and reduced cytotoxicity under hypoxia with SHP-1 or Fas siRNA polyplexes vs controls.
