Photosensitive Poly-l-lysine/Heparin Interpolyelectrolyte Complexes for Delivery of Genetic Drugs

Photo-triggered release of biopharmaceutical drugs inside the cells is a challenging direction of modern science, which requires obtaining new polymeric systems. The interpolyelectrolyte complexes (IPECs) of poly-l-lysine with heparin capable of encapsulation of genetic constructions—such as model oligonucleotide, siRNA, and pDNA—were obtained. Poly-l-lysine to heparin ratios were optimized to provide the appropriate release kinetics of genetic...
