Transfection efficiency of chitosan and thiolated chitosan in retinal pigment epithelium cells: A comparative study
Objective: Gene therapy relies on efficient vector for a therapeutic effect. Efficient non-viral vectors are sought as an alternative to viral vectors. Chitosan, a cationic polymer, has been studied for its gene delivery potential. In this work, disulfide bond containing groups were covalently added...
