Resum
Oil-in-water nano-emulsions have been obtained in the HEPES 20 mM buffer solution / [Alkylamidoammonium:Kolliphor EL = 1:1] / [6 wt% ethylcellulose in ethyl acetate] system over a wide oil-to-surfactant range and above 35 wt% aqueous component at 25 °C. The nano-emulsion with an oil-to-surfactant ratio of 70/30 and 95 wt% aqueous component was used for nanoparticles preparation. These nanoparticles (mean diameter around 90 nm and zeta potential of +22 mV) were non-toxic to HeLa cells up to a concentration of 3 mM of cationic species. Successful complexation with an antisense phosphorothioate oligonucleotide targeting Renilla luciferase mRNA was achieved at cationic/anionic charge ratios above 16, as confirmed by zeta potential measurements and an electrophoretic mobility shift assay, provided that no Fetal Bovine Serum is present in the cell culture medium. Importantly, Renilla luciferase gene inhibition shows an optimum efficiency (40%) for the cationic/anionic ratio 28, which makes these complexes promising for "in vitro" cell transfection.
