RESUMO
In this paper, a DNA-PEI microcapsule with novel nuclease-responsive controlled release properties was demonstrated. This microcapsule was constructed by the self-assembly of native DNA and PEI, and can work as a dual carrier for both DNA in the capsule shell and drugs inside the capsule. The controlled release behavior of the model drug BSA-FITC was studied using fluorescence microscopy and UV spectroscopy, and the results show that the synergetic controlled release can be triggered very well by a bio-stimulus, DNA nuclease recognition capsule decomposition, as well as the pH value and salt concentration. The therapeutic effects of the drug are enhanced due to the bio-stimuli responsive properties and the synergetic release of DNA and the drug together.
