Abstract

The lipid vesicles of bisamphiphiles cardiolipin-like dicationic
lipids (CDL) I-IV were studied for creation of lipoplexes with
plasmid DNA of different sizes to obtain stable lipoplexes for
gene transfer to gene therapy. Lipoplexes sizes (300±100 nm)
and stablity (> 2 hrs) of CDL were sufficient to be used in
gene transfer against monolayer and suspension cell cultures.
The CDL total cytotoxicity determined by MTT-test was lower
compare to lipofectin as a control. Transfection conditions
against tumor cells lines were optimized by lipoplexes of CDL
and plasmid DNA. The most efficient transfection for lipoplexes
CDL-plasmid DNA was at the lipid-DNA (L/D) ratio equal to 5
(for lipofectin, it was 2). For monolayer cell cultures, lipoplexes
CDL-I are comparable in terms of transfection efficacy with
lipofectin; in the case of suspension culture, their efficiency
was lower by one order of magnitude. It permits a usage
of lipoplexes suggested as mediators for gene transfer and
delivery to human tumor cells.
