General description

1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-ethylphosphocholine (18:1 EPC) is a cationic alkylated phospholipid.

Application

1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-ethylphosphocholine (chloride salt) (18:1 EPC (Cl Salt)) is suitable:
  • for composing lipid shell to prepare lipopolyplex/mRNA vaccine
  • in solvent-assisted preparation of supported lipid bilayers
  • along with 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) in mixed liposomes as colloidal vectors for physicochemical study of the DNA compaction
  • to formulate the lipid nanoparticle (LNP1) to enhance intracellular delivery mediated by shock waves

Biochem/physiol Actions

1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-ethylphosphocholine (18:1 EPC) serves as a transfection reagent. 18:1 EPC is applicable in liposomes and lipoplexes. It is a potential vector in gene therapy.
