Although in vivo nonviral gene delivery to the liver is critical for hepatic gene therapy, there are a number of technical obstacles. Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-encoding DNA was coated onto gold particles (gold-DNA), dissolved in phosphate-buffered saline (pure DNA), and prepared as a polymer adjuvant (jetPEI)-galactosidase solution (polymer-DNA). Murine liver transfection was at...
