Abstract
Lactoferrin(Lf) at 3 mu g/ml increased transfection about 3 fold with cationic liposomes, which is a similar enhancing effect with transferr in(Tf). However, the mechanism of enhancement by Lf was different from that by Tf in that the concentration of Lf for the peak luciferase ac tivity was 3 mu g/ml while that of Tf was 30 mu g/ml and furthermore, when Lf and Tf were supplemented together in the liposome-DNA complex, luciferase activity was increased additively.
