Abstract
Provided are a UV light-responsive hyperbranched poly-β-amino ester having high-efficiency gene delivery ability and a preparation method and application thereof; said poly-β-amino ester uses 4-amino-1-butanol, 2-nitro-1, M-phthaloyl 3-diacrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate, and 1-(3-aminopropyl)-4-methylpiperazine as raw materials, is polymerized by means of the 'A2+B3+C2' Michael addition method, causing it to have a hyperbranched structure. In comparison with a linear structure, the branched structure enhances the interaction between the polymer and the nucleic acid molecule, significantly improving gene condensation ability, while also increasing cellular uptake by means of enhancing the interaction with the cell membrane. The poly-β-amino ester has a UV-responsive group on the backbone chain; under UV light irradiation, the poly-β-amino ester can be rapidly degraded after endocytosis, and releases the encapsulated genes, and achieves efficient gene transfection and reduces material toxicity. The invention has good prospects for development in the field of biomedical materials, and particularly in gene delivery.
