Journal ArticleDOI
Plasmid DNA size does not affect the physicochemical properties of lipoplexes but modulates gene transfer efficiency

TL;DR: The main result of this study was that the morphological and structural features of the lipopolyamine-DNA complexes did not depend on plasmid DNA length, while their gene transfer capacity was affected by the size of plasmids which were sandwiched between the lipid bilayers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Virus-sized self-assembling lamellar complexes between plasmid DNA and cationic micelles promote gene transfer.
Bruno Pitard,Olivier Aguerre,Marc Airiau,Anne-Marie Lachagès,Tsiala Boukhnikachvili,Gerardo Byk,Catherine Dubertret,Christian Herviou,Daniel Scherman,Jean-François Mayaux,Joel Crouzet +10 more
TL;DR: Results show that supercoiled plasmid DNA is able to transform lipopolyamine micelles into a supramolecular organization characterized by ordered lamellar domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural characteristics of supramolecular assemblies formed by guanidinium-cholesterol reagents for gene transfection.
Bruno Pitard,Noufissa Oudrhiri,Jean-Pierre Vigneron,Michelle Hauchecorne,Olivier Aguerre,R. Toury,Marc Airiau,Rajen Ramasawmy,Daniel Scherman,Joel Crouzet,Jean-Marie Lehn,Pierre Lehn +11 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that DNA condensation by multivalent guanidinium-cholesterol cationic lipids involves the formation of highly ordered multilamellar domains, the DNA molecules being intercalated between the lipid bilayers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reducible cationic lipids for gene transfer.
Barbara Wetzer,Gerardo Byk,Marc Frederic,Marc Airiau,Francis Blanche,Bruno Pitard,Daniel Scherman +6 more
TL;DR: Reduction-sensitive groups introduced into cationic lipid backbones potentially allow enhanced DNA release from DNA--lipid complexes after intracellular reduction and represent a tool for improved vectorization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stable oxide nanoparticle clusters obtained by complexation.
TL;DR: The electrostatic complexation between polyelectrolyte-neutral copolymers and oppositely charged 6-nm crystalline nanoparticles gives rise to the formation of stable nanoparticle clusters in the range 20-100 nm.
