Non-peptidic liposome-fusion compounds at acidic pH
Abstract
Liposomes including aspartic acid-derived artificial lipids (ADL) with various carboxy alkyl chains as head groups (ADLn; n indicates the number of the methylene groups, n = 2,4,6,8,10,12) are prepared, in which ADL6 and ADL8 liposomes induce remarkably high lipid-mixing in the acidic region.
