“…Acid base titration of the aqueous solutions of the P4 can be seen in Fig.1. Figure 2 shows the predicted extent of protonation (α) values of tertiary and primary amine groups of P4 dendrimer in aqueous solutions within the pH range of 2-12. These values were calculated by using Hendersen-Hasselbech equation (1) with the calculated pKa values on Table 2 [17]. (1) where α is extent of protonation, pKa is the acidity constants for tertiary and primary amine groups, and pH is the measurement of the hydronium ion concentration of the aqueous media.…”

“…As demonstrated by Kabanov and colleagues [16], one of the advantages of this dendrimer is that it binds to DNA via electrostatic interactions involving only the peripheral amine groups, leaving the tertiary amine groups in the dendrimer free to act as a "proton sponge" in the endosome. We recently demonstrated that Tf-bearing DAB dendriplex (average size: 287 nm) resulted in gene expression mainly in the tumors after intravenous administration [17].…”

“…However, not all the functional groups are available for interaction due to steric volume, molecule rotation or stereochemistry effects. Dendrimers can have positive and negative charges, which allows them to complex different types of drugs [89]. …”

“…The nature of liposomes makes them one of the best alternatives for drug delivery because they are non-toxic and remain inside the bloodstream for a long time [130][131][132][133]. Nevertheless, some factors affect the degree of transdermal drug penetration such as the lamellarity, the lipid composition, the charge on the liposomal surface, the mode of application and the total lipid concentrations [89,134]. For that reason, flexible vesicles called transfersomes or transformable liposomes have been compared with those rigid vesicles to enhance penetration [135][136][137][138][139][140][141][142].…”
