Abstract

Nucleic acids-based therapy has been developed rapidly in recent years and the effective treatment is closely related to the safe and efficient delivery of nucleic acids. On the one hand, it is difficult for nucleic acids to penetrate cell membranes and express. On the other hand, unlike other drugs, some genetic therapeutics work at the condition of expressing in specific organ or cells. Therefore, delivery vectors are particularly important: they are expected to protect nucleic acids and achieve efficient transfection. Besides, they should be able to target specific sites to increase the probability of nucleic acid expression in target cells. Given the importance of polymer nucleic acid vectors, in this review, the research progress of polymeric delivery systems is summarized, including how to achieve aggregation from the administration site to the target site, and the state of the art of organ-targeting polymer nucleic acid vectors. Finally, the perspective of organ-targeting polymeric nucleic acid vectors is given.
