Phosphonium polymethacrylates for siRNA delivery: effect of polymer and RNA structural parameters on polyplex assembly and gene knockdown (2015)
Journal Article
Loczenski Rose, V., Shubber, S., Sajeesh, S., Spain, S. G., Puri, S., Allen, S., …Mantovani, G. (2015). Phosphonium polymethacrylates for siRNA delivery: effect of polymer and RNA structural parameters on polyplex assembly and gene knockdown. Biomacromolecules, 16(11), https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.biomac.5b00898

Synthetic polymers containing quaternary phosphonium salts are an emerging class of materials for the delivery of oligo/polynucleotides. In this work, cationic phosphonium salt-containing polymethacrylates –and their corresponding ammonium analogues–...

Triblock copolymer nanovesicles for pH-responsive targeted delivery and controlled release of siRNA to cancer cells (2015)
Journal Article
Gallon, E., Matini, T., Sasso, L., Mantovani, G., Armiñan de Benito, A., Sanchis, J., …Salmaso, S. (2015). Triblock copolymer nanovesicles for pH-responsive targeted delivery and controlled release of siRNA to cancer cells. Biomacromolecules, 16(7), https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.biomac.5b00286

New pH-responsive polymersomes for active anticancer oligonucleotide delivery were prepared from triblock copolymers. The delivery systems were formed by two terminal hydrophilic blocks, PEG and polyglycerolmethacrylate (poly-GMA), and a central weak...

Multifunctional poly[N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide] copolymers via postpolymerization modification and sequential thiol–ene chemistry (2015)
Journal Article
Francini, N., Purdie, L., Alexander, C., Mantovani, G., & Spain, S. G. (2015). Multifunctional poly[N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide] copolymers via postpolymerization modification and sequential thiol–ene chemistry. Macromolecules, 48(9), https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.macromol.5b00447

Poly[N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide] is a promising candidate material for biomedical applications. However, synthesis of functional pHPMA via compolymerization results can lead to variations in monomer composition, molar mass, and dispersity maki...
