Abstract

See full text

This invention relates to a novel Solvent Extraction and Direct Hydration (SEDH) method for preparing lipid-nucleic acid particles which are useful for the introduction of nucleic acids (e.g., plasmid DNA, antisense molecules, ribozymes, etc.) into cells. The lipid-nucleic acid particles prepared using the methods of the present invention have enhanced circulation characteristics and serum stability and, thus, they are extremely effective as nucleic acid delivery vehicles.
