The present invention is directed to methods of transfecting cells with siRNA, by contacting a transfection complex with one or more cells, where the transfection complex includes a transport polymer and siRNA. The transport polymer may include for example, HK8b and/or structurally similar compounds. The invention is also directed to such transfection complexes, and to compositions that include such transfection complexes. The invention is further directed to methods of treating patients using the transfection complexes of the present invention.
