This paper reports the disassembly of layer-by-layer (LbL) films of plasmid DNA and a
reducible cationic polypeptide. To utilize a reducing microenvironment of cellular plasma …

With the recent significant advances in the field polymer chemistry, it is now possible to
produce well-defined and non-toxic cationic polymers with advanced molecular structures of …

Two series of poly (vinyl amine)(PVAm)-based block copolymers with zwitterionic and
thermoresponsive segments were synthesized by the reversible addition–fragmentation …

The facile synthesis of biocompatible and nontoxic gene delivery vectors has been the focus
of research in recent years due to the high potential in treating genetic diseases. 2 …

We report on self-assembly of a weak zwitterionic polymer poly (carboxybetaine), PCB5
within a polyelectrolyte multilayer film. Multilayer growth and ionization of carboxylic groups …

The modern state of SFM research on polymer nano‐objects including single chains is
discussed in comparison with other similar high‐resolution microscopy techniques. The …

Water-soluble core− shell star polymers consisting of a dendritic polyphenylene core and an
outer shell containing a defined number of amino groups have been synthesized via atom …

For ideal polymeric gene vectors, their serum stability is of crucial importance. Polycation
vectors usually suffer from colloidal aggregation, which makes them easily cleared from the …

Although various cationic polymers have been used to condense anionically charged DNA
to improve their transfection efficiency, there is still a lack of fundamental understanding …

A new series of cationic block copolymers PHML-b-PMAGal and statistical copolymers P
(HML-st-MAGal) with pendant natural galactose and (L-)-lysine moieties were prepared via …
