P‐dendrimers appear to be excellent candidates as transfecting agents after positively charged functions are grafted at their periphery. Five different generations of protonated dendrimers (1‐[G1] to 1‐[G5]) and the corresponding methylated series (2‐[G1] to 2‐[G5]) (two examples are shown here) have been examined as transfecting agents of the luciferase gene within 3T3 cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
