Study on the transfection of dextran derivative nanoparticles to the mda-mb-435 human breast cancer cells / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Aim To prepare the dextran derivative nanoparticles with higher transfecting efficiency to mda-mb-435 human breast cancer cells.Methods The dextran 40 and the sodium periodate were reacted with different mole ratio to form the intermediateoxidized dextrans having different aldehyde content.With different reactants matching,the spermine were grafted onto the oxidized dextrans mentioned above to form the dextran-spermine imine conjugates which were reduced by the excess reducing agent NaBH4 to produce the end products 9 species of dextran derivative nanoparticles(extran-spermine amine conjugates).The dextran derivative nanipartical of the highest gene transfecting efficiency was selected from the 9 species of dextran derivative nanoparticles by the experiment of gene transfection,using the pEGFP-C1 plasmid as the reporter,the mda-mb-435 human breast cancer cells as the transfected cells.Results The dextran derivative nanoparticles with the highest transfecting efficiency was the one that had the highest content of spermine grafted onto the oxidized dextran40 obtained by the reaction between sodium periodate and dextran40 with the mole ratio of 0.8.Conclusion The dextran derivative nanoparticles of the highest transfecting efficiency to the mda-mb-435 human breast cancer had been prepared.
