Biological Activity
NH2-PEG-COOH is directly grafted onto the surface of PPI dendrimers via amide bonds, and the resulting modified vector reduces in vitro cytotoxicity, diminishes the sub-G1 apoptotic peak, and enhances gene transfection efficiency in neuroblastoma cells[1].
NH2-PEG3400-COOH can serve as a coupling unit for constructing PLGA-PEG-COOH copolymers, enabling PEGylation of the surface of NPs while retaining terminal -COOH groups for conjugation with targeting molecules[2].
