Lipofection is a powerful technique used in the field of molecular biology and genetic research to facilitate the introduction of foreign genetic material, such as plasmid DNA or RNA, into target cells. This method relies on cationic lipids or lipid-based molecules that can form complexes with the nucleic acids, creating liposomes or lipid-DNA/RNA particles. These complexes, or lipoplexes, are taken up by the cell through endocytosis, allowing the genetic material to enter the cell's cytoplasm and ultimately its nucleus. Once inside, the exogenous DNA or RNA can be expressed and integrated into the host cell's genetic machinery, enabling the study of gene function, regulation, and manipulation. Lipofection is a valuable tool for gene expression studies, functional genomics, and therapeutic applications, as it offers a non-viral and relatively gentle means of transfection, making it widely used in both research and biotechnology.
