Gene Transfection in High Serum Levels: Case Studies with New Cholesterol Based Cationic Gemini Lipids
BACKGROUND Six new cationic gemini lipids based on cholesterol possessing different positional combinations of hydroxyethyl (-CH2CH2OH) and oligo-oxyethylene -(CH2CH2O)n- moieties were synthesized. For comparison the corresponding monomeric lipid was also prepared. Each new cationic lipid was found to form stable, clear suspensions in aqueous media. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS To understan...
متن کاملGemini surfactants: new synthetic vectors for gene transfection.
The superior surfactant properties of cationic gemini surfactants are applied to the complex problem of introducing genes into cells. Of almost 250 new compounds tested, of some 20 different structural types, a majority showed very good transfection activity in vitro. The surfactant is shown to bind and compact DNA efficiently, and structural studies and calculations provide a working picture o...
متن کاملStructure-activity correlation in transfection promoted by pyridinium cationic lipids.
The efficiency of the transfection of a plasmid DNA encoding a galactosidase promoted by a series of pyridinium lipids in mixtures with other cationic lipids and neutral lipids was assessed in CHO-K1 cells. We identify key molecular parameters of the lipids in the mixture - clog P, lipid length, partial molar volume - to predict the morphology of the lipid-DNA lipoplex and then correlate these ...

متن کاملWormlike micelles formed by mixed cationic and anionic gemini surfactants in aqueous solution.
The formation and the properties of wormlike micelles in aqueous solutions of mixed cationic and anionic gemini surfactants, 2-hydroxyl-propanediyl-α,ω-bis(dimethyldodecylammonium bromide) (12-3(OH)-12) and O,O'-bis(sodium 2-dodecylcarboxylate)-p-benzenediol (C(12)ϕC(12)), have been studied by steady-state and dynamic rheological measurements at 25°C. With the addition of a small amount of C(12...
