Abstract: The present invention relates to polyplexes comprising linear conjugates of LPEI and PEG. The LPEI and PEG fragments of the linear conjugates are preferably linked by a [3+2]cycloaddition between an azide and an alkene or an alkyne to produce a 1, 2, 3 triazole or a 4,5-dihydro-1H-[1,2,3]triazole. The linear conjugates are further conjugated to a targeting fragment capable of binding to prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) to enable selective interaction with a particular cell type. The conjugates can form polyplexes with therapeutic agents such as nucleic acids to deliver the therapeutic agents to cells.

Abstract: The present invention is directed compositions for targeted delivery of RNA interference (RNAi) polynucleotides to hepatocytes in vivo. Targeted RNAi polynucleotides are administered together with co-targeted melittin delivery peptides. Delivery peptides provide membrane penetration function for movement of the RNAi polynucleotides from outside the cell to inside the cell. Reversible modification provides physiological responsiveness to the delivery peptides.

Abstract: The present invention is directed compositions for delivery of RNA interference (RNAi) polynucleotides to cells in vivo. The compositions comprise amphipathic membrane active polyamines reversibly modified with enzyme cleavable dipeptide-amidobenzyl-carbonate masking agents. Modification masks membrane activity of the polymer while reversibility provides physiological responsiveness. The reversibly modified polyamines (dynamic polyconjugate or DPC) are further covalently linked to an RNAi polynucleotide or co-administered with a targeted RNAi polynucleotide-targeting molecule conjugate.
