Lipoplexes constituted by calf-thymus DNA (CT-DNA) and mixed cationic liposomes consisting of varying proportions of the cationic lipid 3β-[N-(N',N'-dimethylaminoethane)-carbamoyl]cholesterol hydrochloride (DC-Chol) and the zwitterionic lipid, 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoetanolamine (DOPE) have been analyzed by means of electrophoretic mobility, SAXS, and fluorescence anisotropy experiments, as well as by theoretically calculated phase diagrams. Both experimental and theoretical studies have been run at several liposome and lipoplex compositions, defined in terms of cationic lipid molar fraction, α, and either the mass or charge ratios of the lipoplex, respectively. The experimental electrochemical results indicate that DC-Chol/DOPE liposomes, with a mean hydrodynamic diameter of around (120 ± 10) nm, compact and condense DNA fragments at their cationic surfaces by means of a strong entropically driven electrostatic interaction. Furthermore, the positive charges of cationic liposomes are compensated by the negative charges of DNA phosphate groups at the isoneutrality L/D ratio, (L/D)(ϕ), which decreases with the cationic lipid content of the mixed liposome, for a given DNA concentration. This inversion of sign process has been also studied by means of the phase diagrams calculated with the theoretical model, which confirms all the experimental results. SAXS diffractograms, run at several lipoplex compositions, reveal that, irrespectively of the lipoplex charge ratio, DC-Chol/DOPE-DNA lipoplexes show a lamellar structure, L(α), when the cationic lipid content on the mixed liposomes α ≥ 0.4, while for a lower content (α = 0.2) the lipoplexes show an inverted hexagonal structure, H(II), usually related with improved cell transfection efficiency. A similar conclusion is reached from fluorescence anisotropy results, which indicate that the fluidity on liposome and lipoplexes membrane, also related with better transfection results, increases as long as the cationic lipid content decreases.
