Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of the present study was to elucidate the mechanism of cell-to-cell variability in non-viral transfection in HepG2 cells. In case of lipoplexes, there was no correlation between cellular association and transgene expression over the threshold of cellular association. Moreover, dispersion condition of the lipoplexes and oxidative stress were important pharmaceutical and cellular factors, respectively.
