Gene Therapy for Pyoderma Gangrenosum: Optimal Transfection Conditions and Effect of Drugs on Gene Delivery in the HaCaT Cell Line Using Cationic Liposomes

Abstract: Background/Aims: Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare ulcerative skin disease, currently treated empirically with immunosuppression. PG is a good target for gene therapy since the skin is easily accessible. This study used the FDA-approved vector Lipofectamine® 2000 to investigate in vitro transfection of skin keratinocytes. The aim was to determine an optimum transfection protocol, including the effect of drugs currently used to treat PG on the efficiency of gene transfer, since gene therapy is unlikely to be … Show more

“… 22 Hydrocortisone is one of the ingredients in MCF-10A cell culture. Since hydrocortisone can interact with Lipofectamine and interfere in transfection process, 23 the T47D cells were also cultured with hydrocortisone, to evaluate the possible effect of hydrocortisone on transfection efficiency. Our team reported the transfection efficiencies and toxicity of DOTAP (a liposome) and PAMAM G5 in stem cells previously.…”

“…Although recent progress in identifying various molecular targets has revealed that genebased target therapy is a novel approach, unsatisfactory therapeutic effects remain due to the uncontrollable gene expression level and effective regions. 24 Building a new delivery system is the key to overcome the aforementioned problems.…”
