摘要
To develop the efficient non-viral vector for gene delivery, we compared transfection activities of cationic cholesterol derivatives. We found that the stability of the liposome-DNA complex in the presence of endosome deeply related to the transfection efficiency. We also found that the introduction of a hydrophilic group to the amino terminal of the cholesterol derivative decreased stability and facilitated the release of DNA from the endosome, resulting in higher transfection efficiency.
