Abstract
New lipopolyamines of general formula (I), their salts, their preparation and their use. ##STR1## n=1 to 5 and m=2 to 6; R represents a radical ##STR2## (R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 : aliphatic radical containing 12 to 22 carbon atoms; R: hydrogen atom or alkyl radical optionally substituted with phenyl), or a radical ##STR3## (X=CH.sub.2, CO; R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 aliphatic radical containing 11 to 21 carbon atoms), their preparation and their use. The lipopolyamines of general formula (I) are especially useful as vectors for the transfection of eukaryotic cells.
Claims8
A method of transfecting eukaryotic cells, comprising mixing a dilute aqueous solution of a lipopolyamine product selected from the group consisting of 5-Carboxyspermylglycinedioctadecylamide and Dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine 5-carboxyspermylamide in a suitable medium with a dilute aqueous solution of plasmid or oligonucleotide DNA to form a transfecting solution and contacting the transfecting solution with a suspension of cells to be treated.
5-Carboxyspermylglycinedioctadecylamide.
Dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine 5-carboxyspermylamide.
An ethanolic solution for carrying out the transfection of eukaryotic cells comprising mixing a dilute aqueous solution of a product selected from the group consisting of 5-Carboxyspermylglycinedioctadecylamide and Dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine 5-carboxyspermylamide in a suitable medium with a dilute aqueous solution of plasmid or oligonucleotide DNA, and the transfecting mixture is then brought into contact with a suspension of cells to be transfected.
