摘要

We have developed surface-shielded transferrin-polyethylenimine (Tf-PEI) - based gene delivery systems which are able to target gene expression to distant tumors after systemic application in murine models. For systemic in vivo application the biophysical parameters of transfection complexes, such as particle size, stability, surface charge, and modification with targeting ligand, were found to be critical for DNA biodistribution, toxicity, and gene transfer efficacy. Two major mechanisms may contribute to the tumor-specific targeting: active targeting via receptor- mediated cell binding and passive targeting via shielding of the surface charge of the complexes. Shielding reduces plasma protein and erythrocyte binding, resulting in prolonged blood circulation and extravasation of DNA complexes in areas of vascular leakiness of the tumor tissue. Shielding of surface charges can be achieved by coating polycation/DNA complexes with either polyethylene glycol (PEG) or by incorporating Tf ligand at high densities. Systemic application of surface-shielded transferrin-polyethylenimine-based DNA complexes coding for tumor necrosis factor (TNFα) localized gene expression to distant tumors, resulting in pronounced hemorrhagic tumor necrosis and inhibition of tumor growth. TNFα activity was confined to the tumor without systemic TNF-related toxicity.
