Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a method for introducing an siRNA molecule into the cytosol of a cell, said method comprising i) contacting said cell with an siRNA molecule, a carrier and a photosensiting agent, and ii) irradiating the cell with light of a wavelength effective to activate the photosensitising agent, wherein said carrier comprises a cationic polyamine such as a lipopolyamine in a non-liposomal formulation, polyethyleneimine (PEI), a betacyclodextrin amine polymer, an amine group containing dendrimer, and a cationic peptide. Cells or a population of cells obtainable by the method, a composition containing an siRNA molecule and the carrier molecule, kits and therapeutic uses of the above are also provided.
