摘要

we here report a new methodology for tuning the saline stabilities of polyplex nanovesicles of oligonucleotides by modifying the polycation with Zinc (II)-coordinative cationic chains.

Abstract

Oligonucleotide therapeutics have great potential to target the currently undruggable genes and to generate entirely new therapeutic paradigms in multiple types of disease

thus having attracted much attention in recent years. However

their applications are greatly hindered by a lack of safe and efficient oligonucleotide-delivery vectors. Polyplex nanovesicles formed from oligonucleotides and the cationic block have shown exceptional features for the delivery of therapeutic oligonucleotides and other biopharmaceuticals. Nevertheless

these polyplex nanovesicles are deeply fraught with difficulty in tolerating physiological ionic strength. Inspired by the high binding ability between the dipicolylamine (DPA)/zinc(II) complex and the phosphodiester moieties of oligonucleotides

herein

we designed a coordinative cationic block to solve the intrinsic stability dilemma. Moreover

we found the stability of the resulted polyplex nanovesicles could be easily tuned by the content of coordinated zinc ions.

In vitro

cellular studies implied that the prepared zinc(II)-coordinative polyplex nanovesicles preferred to retain in the lysosomes upon internalization

making them ideal delivery candidates for the lysosome-targeting oligonucleotide therapeutics.
