The paper examines non-viral vectors for the transfer of DNA into human cells explaining their ability to protect DNA from degradation during injection and the ability to effectively penetrate the host cell. The vectors of chitosan and DOTMA are compared exploring how they form complexes with DNA and how these complexes differ when used for therapeutic purposes.
