Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
DC-Chol is a cationic cholesterol derivative. DC-Chol, as a component of lipoplexes with DOPE , has been used for transfection of mRNA into A549 cells without affecting cell viability. Incubation of DC-chol/DOPE liposomes or lipoplexes with human whole blood has no effect on neutrophil elastase or β-thromboglobulin levels or the number of platelets and red and white blood cells, indicating hemocompatibility. DC-Chol has also been widely used in the synthesis of liposomes for the delivery of siRNA, DNA, and chemotherapeutic agents into cells and mice. | [Uses]
DC-Cholesterol HCl is suitable:
- for the preparation of ultrasound cationic microbubbles
- to prepare liposomes
- for the preparation of L-glutathione (GSH), loaded proliposomes
| [Uses]
This cationic cholesterol derivative forms liposomes with L-α-phosphatidylethanolamine, dioleoyl, that efficiently transfect mammalian cell lines. | [General Description]
DC-Cholesterol HCl is a sterol-based transfection reagent. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
DC-Cholesterol is an effective transfection agent and a liposome reagent. Liposome of DC-Cholesterol with dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) are efficient for DNA transfection. It imparts positive surface charge to the microbubbles for ultra sound based transfection of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs). | [storage]
