The results showed that the transfection rate of oligonucleotide to the HL-60 was about 90 %—95 % and it had no obvious attenuation within 84 h. However, the plasmid transfection rate was only 5 %—25 % and it was decreased significantly within 60 h. It was suggested that the transfection of oligonucleotide with liposomes was better than that of plasmid.展开更多
