AtuFECT01
AtuFECT01 is a cationic lipid component. AtuFECT01 is used to construct AtuPLEX/Atu027 Lipid nanoparticles. AtuFECT01 improves cellular uptake and endosomal escape of siRNA in AtuFECT01-based lipoplexes. Formulation of AtuFECT01 with Tie2 siRNA into lipoplexes reduces Tie2 expression in mouse lung.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
AtuFECT01-based siRNA-lipoplexes (1-50 nM; 48 h) inhibit PKN3 protein expression in HeLa cells[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. Further protocols information, click here.
In Vivo
DACC/AtuFECT01 lipoplexes (0.75-3 mg siRNA/kg; intravenous bolus; single or once daily; 3 consecutive days) mediate dose-dependent, lung endothelial-specific knockdown of Tie-2, CD31, VEGFR2, VE-Cadherin, and BMPR-2 in C57Bl/6j healthy mice[3].

Result:Reduced Tie2 mRNA in lung, heart, and liver after siRNA^Tie2-lipoplex administration.
Reduced CD31 mRNA in lung, heart, and liver after siRNA^CD31-lipoplex administration.
Reduced Tie2 mRNA more prominently than CD31 mRNA in liver.
Inhibited both target genes similarly in lung and heart.
Reduced Tie2 protein in all three analyzed organs after siRNA^Tie2-lipoplex administration.
Reduced CD31 protein in lung and heart after siRNA^CD31-lipoplex administration.
Reduced serum soluble Tie2 on day 5 in siRNA^Tie2-lipoplex-administered mice compared with sucrose, siRNA^PTEN, and siRNA^CD31 control cohorts.
Observed no suppression of endothelial gene expression in kidney and spleen.

Protocols
-
RNA extraction experimental
By lysing cells, releasing RNA, and removing impurities such as proteins and DNA, high-purity RNA products are finally obtained. The commonly used traditional method is the guanidine isothiocyanate/phenol/chloroform method (Trizol), which is suitable for a variety of animal materials including animal tissues, microorganisms, cultured cells, etc., and most plant materials.

RNA interference technology
RNA interference (RNAi) is a cellular mechanism that inhibits gene expression by suppressing gene transcription or activating RNA degradation. This mechanism was discovered in plants in 1998 by Andrew Fire and Craig Mello. Today, this phenomenon can be observed in almost all eukaryotes, including protozoa, flies, nematodes, insects, parasites, and mammals.
