title: Stabilization of Polycation-DNA Complexes by Surface Modification with Hydrophilic Polymers.
abstract: Polycation-DNA complexes represent promising synthetic vectors for gene delivery, showing good transfection activities in vitro and safety in vivo. However, simple polycation-DNA complexes suffer from several disadvantages that limit their potential usefulness in vivo. Advances in this field thus rely on better control of the structure, colloidal, and surface properties of condensed DNA particles.
