Delivery of pDNA to the Lung by Lipopolyplexes Using <i>N</i>-Lauroylsarcosine and Effect on the Pulmonary Fibrosis
In a previous study, we constructed a lung-targeting lipopolyplex containing polyethyleneimine (PEI), 1,2-di-<i>O</i>-octadecenyl-3-trimethylammonium propane (DOTMA), and <i>N</i>-lauroylsarcosine (LS). The lipopolyplex exhibited an extremely high gene expression in the lung...
