DEAE Dextran is a polycationic derivative of the carbohydrate polymer dextran and was one of the first chemical reagents used to transfer nucleic acids into cultured mammalian cells. The positive charge of DEAE Dextran interacts with the negative charge of nucleic acids, allowing the complex to be internalized by cells more efficiently. In addition, it has been used in the development of sustained release protein delivery, nucleic acid transfection systems, and to increase the efficiency of lentiviral transduction. It has been speculated that DEAE Dextran may cause a stimulation of the helper T-cell function in antibody synthesis.
