A method for providing access to documents and data files that are inherently valuable, and also documents that contain sensitive information, is configured with robust user identification and document control capabilities and facilitates document submission by, for or on behalf of a user who perhaps is the subject of the document. The document is processed, optionally character recognized and steganographically marked, and is stored in a fixed format together with descriptive identifiers and database indexing values to facilitate control and searching. The level of security encourages users to entrust documents to storage and the system is programmed to control disclosure of documents (or parts of them) according to the user's dictates. Correspondingly strict user identification and document controls apply to those who log on for purposes of document review or serve as authenticators. The result is a virtual safe depository for documents that enables documents to be reviewed when necessary with reduced risk of misuse, for example by inadvertent disclosure to identity thieves and others.

Novel lipid compounds are provided that may be termed "pro-cationic" in that they are neutral or negatively charged until they are either brought into contact with cellular membranes or are internalized by cells. The lipids have a hydrophobic tail group and a hydrophilic head group, the head group incorporating both a positively and negatively charged region at physiological pH. The hydrophobic tail group is stably connected to the positive region of the head group which in turn is connected to the negative region by a disulfide bond that is susceptible to cleavage by membrane-bound and intracellular factors. Cleavage of the disulfide bond removes the negatively charged region from the head group resulting in a lipid that is cationic and therefor fusogenic with negatively charged cell membranes. Consequently, lipids of the invention are useful as components of liposomes that serve as vehicles for delivering pharmaceutical agents into cells with reduced toxicity.
