Synthesis and biocompatibility of Diamine biomolecules-

functinoalized SWCNTs as vectors for Gene Delivery

T

he development of new and stable gene carrier is of

great importance to improve the transfection efficiency

and achieve to certain fundamental needs in gene therapy

such as therapeutic protein formation, immunogenicity

enhancement and apoptosis induction. The stability and

applicability of the system that contains single-walled

carbon nanotubes (SWNCTs) to combine with plasmid

DNA (EGFp-C1) was examine by computer simulation.

Raman spectroscopy was used as supporting information

to verify the process and phenomenon of complex

formation. Two diamine biomolecules, 1,4-diaminobutane

and polyoxyethylene bis-amine, were applied in order to

load positive charges onto the surface of SWCNTs under

physiology condition and also enhance the biocompatibility

of SWCNTs. The formation of peptide bond was examined

with FTIR spectroscopy to confirm the result of cross liking.

Concentration of surface functional groups was examined

with TGA, which found that they are at an extremely low

concentration but show great influence on the physical

property. The binding efficiency of functionalized SWCNTs

to EGFp-C1 was analyzed through the binding strength

under electrophoresis. Cytotoxicity and cell viability were

evaluated with LDH and MTT assay that show a significant

increase in cell viability for SWCNTs-1,4-diaminobuatne

complex. The inflammatory inducing property were

assessed by pro-inflammatory factor IL-6 release by using

quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique.

Speaker Biography

Feng-Huei Lin is expertise in biomaterials, tissue engineering &

regenerative. He obtained his BS degree in Department of Earth

Sciences, National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Taiwan, in 1980. In

1983, he joined the Functional Ceramics Lab in Institute of Materials

Sciences and Engineering, NCKU, Taiwan. During the PhD training, he

was not only to take course in engineering school, but also in medical

school; that included biochemistry, cell biology, physiology, pathology,

anatomy etc. He was honored as PhD degree with 12 SCI publications

in November 1989. He served as standing committee member in many

international societies since 1996. and as editor, associate editor

and editorial board members in many SCI journals. He has published

over 350 SCI papers, joined 9 book chapters, awarded 78 patents and

transferred 27 technologies to industry to be product. He is willing

to cooperated with different kinds of researchers and scientists; and

very happy to help young blood to do the research by sharing the

knowledge, experience and lab tools. He is very experience both

in academic research and industry to push the research fruits to the

commercial product.
