Gene delivery can particularly be used for the treatment of diseases by the insertion of genetic materials (DNA and RNA) into mammalian cells either to express new proteins or to prevent the expression of existing proteins. Chitosan, a natural polymer is nontoxic, biocompatible, and biodegradable and it is used as a support material for gene delivery. However, practical use of chitosan has been mainly limited to its unmodified forms, and thus modified chitosans can be used for the wide range of biomedical applications including the interaction and intracellular delivery of genetic materials. In this context, this review paper provides the recent development on chitosan derivatives available for gene delivery. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
