Abstract
Previously we formulated new cationic liposomes, DDC, composed of DOTAP. DOPE, and cholesterol (Chol) in 1 : 0.7 : 0.3 molar ratios, and showed that DDC efficiently deliver the plasmid DNA into ovarian cancer cell lines. Here, wild type p53 DNA was transfected into ovarian cancer cells, using the DOC as a nonviral vector and the expression and activity of p53 gene were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. The complexes of plasmid DNA (pp53-EGFP) and DDC were transfected into OVCAR-3 cells. The gene expression was determined by RT -PCR and western blot analysis. (omitted)
