Liposomes are now in the marketplace as cosmeticeuticals and, more important,
pharmaceuticals. Three major achievements of liposome application: steric stabilization …

Liposomes are used as biocompatible carriers of drugs, peptides, proteins, plasmic DNA,
antisense oligonucleotides or ribozymes, for pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and biochemical …

Lipid-based carriers represent the most widely used alternative to viral vectors for gene
expression and gene silencing purposes. This class of non-viral vectors is particularly …

This study describes the effect of ethanol and the presence of poly (ethylene) glycol (PEG)
lipids on the interaction of nucleotide-based polyelectrolytes with cationic liposomes. It is …

Cationic lipid-mediated nucleic acid and protein delivery is becoming increasingly popular
for in vitro and in vivo applications. While the chemistry of cationic lipid carriers is moving …

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have shown remarkable success in delivering genetic materials
like COVID-19 LNP vaccines, such as mRNA-1273/SpikeVax by Moderna and …

Alkylammonium binding to DNA was studied by isothermal titration calorimetry.
Experimental data, obtained as functions of alkyl chain length, salt concentration, DNA …

In this perspective article, we focus on recent developments in the theory of charge effects in
biological DNA-related systems. The electrostatic effects on different levels of DNA …

In aqueous solutions, dissolved ions interact strongly with the surrounding water and
surfaces, thereby modifying solution properties in an ion-specific manner. These ion …

Complexes of cationic liposomes with DNA are promising tools to deliver genetic information
into cells for gene therapy and vaccines. Electrostatic interaction is thought to be the major …
