Abstract:
Series of lipids 1a-d and 2a,b, with carbamate linkages between hydrocarbon chains and ammonium or tertiary amine head, which were pH sensitive, were synthesized for liposome-mediated gene delivery. The variable length of carbon chains and quaternary ammonium or neutral tertiary amine heads allowed to find the structure-function relationship of how these factors affect cationic lipids on gene delivery performance.
