PEGylation and folic-acid functionalization of cationic lipoplexes—Improved nucleic acid transfer into cancer cells

Efficient and reliable transfer of nucleic acids for therapy applications is a major challenge. Stabilization of lipo- and polyplexes has already been successfully achieved by PEGylation. This modification reduces the interaction with serum proteins and thus prevents the lipoplexes from being cleare...
