Tailor-made soluble polymer carriers
TL;DR: Poly(amido-amines) (PAAs) are synthetic polymers characterized by the presence of amido and tertiary amino groups regularly arranged along their macromolecular chain and can be classified as polycations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability of antisense oligonucleotides during incubation with a mixture of isolated lysosomal enzymes
TL;DR: Enzymatic digestion by lysosomal nucleases, and not simple acid-catalysed hydrolysis, accounts for the rapid degradation of oligonucleotides.

Synthesis and Characterization of N-(2-Hydroxypropyl)-Methacrylamide (HPMA) Copolymer-Emetine Conjugates:
Sasa Dimitrijevic,Ruth Duncan +1 more
TL;DR: The synthesis and characterization of novel N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) copolymer conjugates containing emetine are reported, thought to be the first polymer conjugate containing Emetine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soluble synthetic polymers as targetable agents for intracellular drug release
TL;DR: Copolymers of 2-hydroxypropylmethacrylamide with oligopeptide side-chains have been used to demonstrate the attachment of drug analogues by covalent linkages susceptible to hydrolysis by lysosomal enzymes but stable in plasma.
