A molecular dynamics approach for predicting the glass transition temperature and plasticization effect in amorphous pharmaceuticals.

abstract：:Nonviral gene delivery has seen limited clinical application due in part to the inefficiency with which most nonviral vehicles navigate the intracellular gene delivery pathway. One key problem is the inability of most DNA-packaging materials to release DNA and enable its efficient transcription. Thus, our aim was to d...
