## Background: One of the main drawbacks of synthetic, non-viral gene vectors is their relatively low in vivo efficiency when compared with viral vectors. the present paper describes the use of a partially fluorinated glycerophosphoethanolamine (f-pe), a close analog of dope, which, as a helper lip

## Abstract ## Background Cationic lipids are at present very actively investigated for gene transfer studies and gene therapy applications. Basically, they rely on the formation of DNA/lipid aggregates via electrostatic interactions between their cationic headgroup and the negatively charged DNA.
## Abstract ## Background Naked DNA and standard vectors have previously been used for gene delivery from implantable carrier matrices with great potential for gene therapeutic assistance of wound healing or tissue engineering. We have previously developed copolymerβprotected gene vectors which ar
## Abstract **Background** Lipidβbased vectors have been widely applied to __in vivo__ and __in vitro__ gene delivery. Disaccharides can effectively stabilize lipid membranes. This study examined whether disaccharides could enhance the transgene expression mediated by lipidβbased vectors. **Method
