| Abstract | The rate and character of superficial tissue regeneration after wounds, burns, and other traumas depend on cell proliferation within the damaged area. The acceleration of wound healing via the stimulation of cell proliferation and extracellular matrix synthesis is one of the most important tasks of modern medicine. There are gene therapy approaches to wound treatment, such as the transfer of genes that encode mitogenic growth factors to the wound area. The most important step in the development of the gene therapy approaches is the design of gene delivery tools. Despite the high efficiency of viral vectors, the nonviral approaches have some advantages (low toxicity, low immunogenity, safety, and the absence of side effects). Among the nonviral gene delivery tools molecular conjugates are the most popular due to their efficiency, simplicity, and the capacity for targeted gene transfer. In the present work, we have developed two molecular conjugates, NLS-TSF7 and NLS-TSF12, which consist of the modified signal of the nuclear localization of the T-antigen of the SV40 virus (cationic part) and the peptide ligands of the mammalian transferrin receptor (ligand part). Those conjugates bind to plasmid DNA via the formation of polyelectrolytic complexes and are able to deliver plasmid DNA into cells that express transferrin receptors through receptor-mediated endocytosis. The transfer of the expression vector of the luciferase gene in the complex with the molecular conjugate NLS-TSF7 to murine surface tissues led to about the 100-fold increase of luciferase activity in comparison with the transfer of the free expression vector. The treatment of mice with incised wounds with complexes of the expression vector of the synthetic human gene that encodes insulin-like growth factor 1 with molecular conjugate NLS-TSF7 led to the acceleration of wound healing in comparison with mice treated with the free expression vector. The obtained results confirm the high efficiency of the developed approach to regenerative gene therapy for treating the superficial tissue damage of mammals. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
