MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR INTRACELLULAR DELIVERY OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE MOLECULES

摘要

The subject invention finds utility in the area of gene therapy of diseases. More specifically, the invention concerns the making of non-viral vector which can bind to desired DNA to form a combination useful to transfect diseased mitochondria of human or animal cells. The non-viral vector comprises a dequalinium salt subjected to standard liposome production procedures to obtain the vector named DQAsomes.
