Comparative Evaluation of Lipofectamine and Dendrimer for Transfection of Short RNA Into Human T47D and MCF-10A Cell Lines

Purpose: Non-viral transfection approaches are extensively used in cancer therapy. The future of cancer therapy lies on targeted and efficient drug/gene delivery. The aim of this study was to determine the transfection yields of two commercially available ...

Core-shell Structured Chitosan-polyethylenimine Nanoparticles for Gene Delivery: Improved Stability, Cellular Uptake, and Transfection Efficiency

Sandrine Gerber, Laura Camille Louise Nicolle, Perrine Agnes Edith Robin

Gene therapy emerged as a promising treatment option for acquired and inherited diseases. The delivery of nucleic acids relies on vectors that condense and encapsulate their cargo. Especially non-viral gene delivery systems are of increasing interest. Howe ...

Engineering of chitosan-based derivatives for non-viral gene delivery

Laura Camille Louise Nicolle

Gene therapy offers the possibility to treat or even cure diseases originating from genetic defects by introducing a therapeutic gene in target cells or correcting the initial defective gene. Amongst different options, non-viral vectors rely on the deliver ...

Efficient viral transduction in mouse inner ear hair cells with utricle injection and AAV9-PHP.B

Bernard Schneider, Paola Andrea Solanes Vega

Viral delivery of exogenous coding sequences into the inner ear has the potential for therapeutic benefit for patients suffering genetic or acquired hearing loss. To devise improved strategies for viral delivery, we investigated two injection techniques, r ...

Calcium-Mediated Liposome Fusion to Engineer Giant Lipid Vesicles with Cytosolic Proteins and Reconstituted Mammalian Proteins

Leo Scheller

Giant unilamellar lipid vesicles (GUVs) are widely used as model membrane systems and provide an excellent basis to construct artificial cells. To construct more sophisticated artificial cells, proteins-in particular membrane proteins-need to be incorporat ...

Glutaredoxin 1 Downregulation in the Substantia Nigra Leads to Dopaminergic Degeneration in Mice

Bernard Schneider

Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by a severe loss of the dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc). Perturbation of protein thiol redox homeostasis has been shown to play a role in the dysregulation of cell ...

Microfluidic platforms for high-throughput mammalian cell printing, transfection, and dosage-dependent studies

Kristina Pan Woodruff

With the advent of high-throughput and genome-wide screening initiatives, there is a need for improved methods for cell-based assays. Current approaches require expensive equipment, rely on large-scale culturing formats not suited for small or rare sample ...

A High-Throughput Microfluidic Platform for Mammalian Cell Transfection and Culturing

Sebastian Maerkl, Kristina Pan Woodruff

Mammalian synthetic biology could be augmented through the development of high-throughput microfluidic systems that integrate cellular transfection, culturing, and imaging. We created a microfluidic chip that cultures cells and implements 280 independent t ...

Multigene expression in stable CHO cell pools generated with the piggyBac transposon system

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Sowmya Balasubramanian

Heterogenous populations of recombinant cells (cell pools) stably expressing 1-4 transgenes were generated from Chinese hamster overy (CHO) cells with the piggyBac (PB) transposon system. The cell pools produced different combinations of three model protei ...

Recombinant protein production from stable mammalian cell lines and pools

David Hacker, Sowmya Balasubramanian

We highlight recent developments for the production of recombinant proteins from suspension-adapted mammalian cell lines. We discuss the generation of stable cell lines using transposons and lentivirus vectors (non-targeted transgene integration) and site- ...
