Steary C18 lipid has become a favorable lipophilic carrier in siRNA and antisense therapeutic studies. This modification can be placed at the 5' end of an oligonucleotide. Antisense oligonucleotides, siRNA, aptamers, and miRNA have been used in various therapeutic developments. However, the challenge facing these developments has been how to deliver the oligos effectively to the desired cellular targets. Strategies of using lipophilic and non-toxic carrier such as Steary C18 lipid, choleseryl-TEG, a-Tocopherol-TEG, GalNAc have been used. Related Products:
