More Information
Summary:The present invention discloses a multifunctional DNA-templated micelle system that has a payload carrier of at least a DNA bridge and a functionalized polyethylene glycol (PEG) segment. The micelle can be used to deliver molecules, such as drugs and polynucleotides, to targeted cells for pharmaceutical uses. The PEG segment provides a functional group, such as amine, for ligand conjugation. The DNA-templated micelle of the present invention is highly controllable in size, loading efficiency and tissue targeting, and can carry multiple payloads for targeted combination strategies in cancer therapy, such as gene delivery, gene therapy, and immunotherapy.
