Quaternary complexes with condensed core of plasmid DNA, protamine, fish sperm DNA and shell of stearic acid grafted chitosan oligosaccharide (CSO-SA), were prepared. The CSO-SA could self-assemble to form nano-sized micelles in aqueous solution and demonstrated excellent internalization ability of tumor cells. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurement and transmission electrostatic microscope (TEM) images showed that quaternary complexes had spherical shape with about 25 nm number average diameter, and the size of quaternary complexes was smaller than that of CSO-SA micelles and CSO-SA micelles/plasmid DNA binary complexes. The transfection efficiencies of quaternary complexes on HEK293 and MCF-7 cells increased with incubation time, and were significantly higher than that of CSO-SA micelles/plasmid DNA binary complexes. The optimal transfection efficiency of quaternary complexes on HEK293 and MCF-7 cells measured by flow cytometer after 96 h was 23.82% and 41.43%, respectively. Whereas, the transfection efficiency of Lipofectamine (TM) 2000 on HEK293 and MCF-7 cells after 96 h was 32.45% and 33.23%, respectively. The data of luciferease activity measurement showed that the optimal ratio of plasmid DNA:fish sperm DNA:protamine:CSO-SA was 1:1:5:5. The results indicated that the present quaternary complexes were potential non-viral gene delivery system. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
