FIGURE 1 Model of cellular uptake of LαC complexes. (a) Cationic complexes adhere to cells due to electrostatic attraction between positively charged CL-DNA complexes and negatively charged cell-surface sulfated proteoglycans (shown in expanded views) of mammalian plasma membranes. (b and c) After attachment, complexes enter through endocytosis. (d) Only those complexes with a large enough membrane charge density (σM) escape the endosome through activated fusion with endosomal membranes. (e) Released DNA inside the cell is observed by comfocal microscopy to be present primarily in the form of aggregates. The DNA aggregates must reside in the cytoplasm because oppositely charged cellular biomolecules able to condense DNA are not present in the endosome. Arrows in the expanded view of c indicate the electrostatic attraction between the positively charged membranes of the complex and the negatively charged membranes of the endosome (comprised of sulfated proteoglycans and anionic lipids), which tends to enhance adhesion and fusion. Arrows in the expanded view in d indicate that the bending of the membranes hinders fusion.

FIGURE 2 Comparison of structure and transfection efficiency (TE). Left (mole fraction ΦDOPC=0.67) shows a typical XRD scan of lamellar (inset) LαC complexes. Right (mole fraction ΦDOPE=0.69) shows a typical XRD scan of inverted hexagonal (inset) HIIC complexes. Middle displays the corresponding TE, as measured by luciferase enzyme assays of transfected mouse L-cells.

FIGURE 3 Laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) images of transfected mouse L-cells. Red denotes lipid; green, DNA; and yellow, the overlap of the two denotes CL-DNA complexes. For each set, middle is the x-y top view at a given z; right is the y-z side view along the vertical dotted line; bottom is the x-z side view along the horizontal dotted line. Objects in circles are indicated by arrows in the x-z and y-z plane side views. (A) Cells transfected with HIIC complexes (ΦDOPE=0.69), show fusion of lipid (red) with the cell plasma membrane and the release of DNA (green in the circle) within the cell. Thus, HIIC complexes display clear evidence of separation of lipid and DNA, which is consistent with the high transfection efficiency of such complexes. The released exogenous DNA is in an aggregated state, which implies that it has been condensed with oppositely charged biomolecules of the cell, which remain to be identified. (B) Cells transfected with LαC complexes at ΦDOPC=0.67, which results in a low membrane charge density σM≈0.005 e/Å2 and low transfection efficiency (as plotted in Fig. 4 B). First, no fusion is observed. Second, intact CL-DNA complexes are observed inside cells (one such yellow complex is shown in the circle). The intact complex implies that DNA remains trapped within the complex, which is consistent with the observed low transfection efficiency of such low σM/LαC complexes. Because of the lack of fusion (which aided observation of the cell outline in A), we achieved cell outline by observation in reflection mode, which appears as blue. Bars=5μm applies to all planes.

FIGURE 4 (A) Transfection efficiency (TE) expressed as relative light units per mg total cellular protein plotted as a function of varying mole fraction DOPC with cationic lipids DOSPA, DOTAP, and DMRIE. (B) TE plotted versus the membrane charge density σM, demonstrating universal behavior of CLs containing cationic lipids with different molecular charges and headgroup areas (inset). For all three systems, TE increases with σM until an optimal σM* (arrow at≈0.0104e/Å2; determined by the intersection of two straight lines fit to the data (dashed lines) above and below the “knee”), at which TE plateaus. (C) The fractional increase TEchloroquine/TE for the DOSPA/DOPC and DOTAP/DOPC systems with added chloroquine as a function of σM. (D) TE plotted as a function of mole fraction of neutral lipid for the DOTAP/DOPC and the DOTAP/DOPE systems. The DOTAP/DOPC system is LαC. The DOTAP/DOPE system goes through two phase transitions: LαC (filled green square) to coexisting LαC+HIIC (green square with cross) to HIIC (open green square). All transfection measurements were done with 2μg of plasmid DNA at a constant cationic to anionic charge ratio of 2.8. (2.8 was chosen as it corresponded to the middle of a typical plateau region observed for optimal transfection conditions as a function of increasing cationic to anionic charge ratio above the isoelectric point of the complex.) Thus, every TE data point of A and B (which is found to vary by nearly four orders of magnitude) used the same amount of total charged species (anionic charge from DNA, cationic charge from cationic lipid) and the membrane charge density of CL-DNA complexes (σM) was varied by varying the amount of neutral lipid.

FIGURE 5 LSCM images of a mouse L-cell transfected with LαC complexes at ΦDOPC=0.18, which resulted in cationic membranes with a high charge density σM≈0.012e/Å2 and high transfection efficiency (as plotted in Fig. 4 B). Red denotes lipid; green, DNA; and yellow, the overlap of the two, CL-DNA complexes. Top left is the x-y top view at a given z. Objects in circles in the x-y plane are indicated by arrows in the side views. Panels in the top right are y-z side views along the vertical dashed lines (of the x-y plane). Panels in the bottom left are x-z side views along the horizontal dashed lines (of the x-y plane). Although these lamellar complexes have transfection efficiencies as high as those of the high-transfecting HIIC complexes, no fusion with the cell plasma membrane is seen in contrast to fusion observed in high-transfecting HIIC complexes (Fig. 3 A). Both released DNA (circle denoted as 1) and intact complexes (circle denoted as 2) are observed inside the cell. Very significantly, the observed released DNA is in an aggregated state, which implies that it resides in the cytoplasm and has escaped the endosome (as described in the text, in contrast to the cytoplasm, there are no known DNA condensing biomolecules in the endosome). (3 and 4) A complex in the process of releasing its DNA into the cytoplasm. Corresponding plots of fluorescence intensity as a function of position are shown in boxes in the lower right corner. Because of the lack of fusion (which aided observation of the cell outline in Fig. 3 A) we achieved cell outline by observation in reflection mode, which appears as blue. Bar=5μm applies to all planes. Biophysical Journal 2003 84, 3307-3316DOI: (10.1016/S0006-3495(03)70055-1) Copyright © 2003 The Biophysical Society Terms and Conditions

FIGURE 6 Schematic sketch of an inverted hexagonal CL-DNA complex interacting with either the plasma membrane or the endosomal membrane (a). For simplicity, the cell-surface proteoglycans, which are present in the membrane bilayer have been left out (see Fig. 1). The outer lipid monolayer covering the HIIC CL-DNA complex has a positive curvature (C>0) whereas the desired curvature for cationic lipid monolayers coating DNA within the complex of the inverted hexagonal phase is negative. The outer lipid layer is thus energetically costly, which would result in a driving force, independent of the cationic membrane charge density, for rapid fusion of the HIIC complex with the bilayer of the cell plasma membrane or the endosomal membrane as sketched in b.
