Treatment

Lipofectamine treatment significantly enhanced HLA-restricted RSV-specific CD8+ CTL activity (up to sevenfold, P < 0.05-0.001). Treatment with lipofectamines, an cationic lipid for eucaryotic cell transfection, inhibits gamma-secretase activity and stimulates APP cleavage.

Compound-Compound Interactions

HPTD can enhance the efficiency of gene transfer in combination with Lipofectamine which doubled the gene transfer rate into COS-7 cells. The feasibility of this approach for the cytosolic targeting of proteins and nanoparticles was exemplified through the delivery of avidin (68 kDa) and streptavidin-coated quantum dots (15-20 nm) in serum-containing medium.
