abstract = "Nonviral vectors show great potential in delivering nucleic acids (NA) into many mammalian cells to achieve efficient gene transfection. Among these, cationic polymer is one of the most widely used nonviral gene delivery vectors, forming the polymer/NA complexes for the intracellular transportation and release of the genetic materials into the target mammalian cells. Here we describe the poly(β-amino ester) (PBAE) with the photo-responsive domain built in the polymers, as a UV-light-responsive nonviral gene delivery vector to deliver and release plasmid DNA (pDNA) into HeLa cells and achieve enhanced transfection efficiency.",
