Abstract

Objectives

The present review aims to discuss various strategies to overcome intracellular and extracellular barriers involved in gene delivery as well as the advantages, challenges, and mechanisms of gene delivery using non-viral vectors. Additionally, patents, clinical studies, and various formulation approaches related to lipid-based carrier systems are discussed.

Methods

Data were searched and collected from Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Springer.

Results

In this review, we have investigated the advantages of non-viral vectors over viral vectors. The advantage of using non-viral vectors are that they seek more attention in different fields. They play an important role in delivering the genetic materials. However, few non-viral vector-based carrier systems have been found in clinical settings. Challenges are developing more stable, site-specific gene delivery and conducting thorough safety assessments to minimize the undesired effects.

Conclusion

In comparison to viral vectors, non-viral vector-based lipid nanocarriers have more advantages for gene delivery. Gene therapy research shows promise in addressing health concerns. Lipid-based nanocarriers can overcome intracellular and extracellular barriers, allowing efficient delivery of genetic materials. Non-viral vectors are more attractive due to their biocompatibility, ease of synthesis, and cost-effectiveness. They can deliver various nucleic acids and have improved gene delivery efficacy by avoiding degradation steps. Despite limited clinical use, many patents have been filed for mRNA vaccine delivery using non-viral vectors.
