Aim: Constructing a new drug-delivery system using carboxylated graphene quantum dots (cGQDs) for tumor chemotherapy in vivo. Materials & methods: A drug-delivery system was synthesized through a crosslink reaction of cGQDs, NH2-poly(ethylene glycol)-NH2 and folic acid. Results: A drug delivery system of folic acid-poly(ethylene glycol)-cGQDs was successfully constructed with ideal entrapment efficiency (97.5%) and drug-loading capacity (40.1%). Cell image indicated that the nanosystem entered into human cervical cancer cells mainly through macropinocytosis-dependent pathway. In vivo experiments showed the outstanding antitumor ability and low systemic toxicity of this nanodrug-delivery system. Conclusion: The newly developed drug-delivery system provides an important alternative for tumor therapy without causing systemic adverse effects.

Vectors are vital aspect of gene delivery system which decides the success of gene therapy. Efficient transfection with minimum or no toxicity, are two principal aims of any gene delivery system. In this our study, we rationally developed biodegradable water soluble poly(ßamino ester) (PAE) based on spermine (SPR) and poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG), by Michael-type addition reaction and further studied for its potential as a gene carrier. Confirmation of synthesized PAE was done by proton NMR spectroscopy. In gel retardation assay, the PAEs have shown good DNA binding ability over wide range of polyplexes. The addition of PEG over SPR resulted in a novel PAE with higher degree of safety and transfection efficiency as compared with polyethylenimine 25K (PEI) when studied in 293T human kidney carcinoma cells.
