General description

Fluorescent transfection reagent has the cationic lipid 1,2-dioleoyloxypropyl)-N,N,N-trimethylammonium chloride (DOTAP) and the neutral lipid DOPE (1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine in the ratio 1:1 w/w along with 0.1 wt% N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)dioleoyl (NBD) DOPE. NBD-DOPE is a fluorescence probe with NBD attached to headgroup of DOPE.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The DOTAP:DOPE with 0.1% NBD-DOPE liposome (LipNBD) reconstituted with transferrin called the transferrin liposome-nitrobenzoxadiazole (Tf-LipNBD) is useful as a probe. It provides improved image contrast in in vitro magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of tumor cells. Fluorescent transfection reagent aids in understanding fibroplex membrane structure and fibroin interaction with cationic lipids. N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl)dioleoyl (NBD) is used in model membranes studies and is useful in visualizing membrane domains.

Directly delivering therapeutic proteins into cells has promise as an intervention without side effects for protein deficiencies caused by genetic defects. However, as negatively charged macromolecules, proteins require carriers for achieving cellular uptake and maintaining their activity in the cytoplasm.
