Description:
Lipid 11-A-M (LNP Lipid-8) is a specialized single-tail, multi-head ionizable cationic lipid engineered for targeted nucleic acid delivery to T cells. Unlike traditional lipids that exhibit strong liver tropism, 11-A-M formulations successfully bypass hepatocytes, resulting in negligible liver accumulation and toxicity. Upon intravenous administration, it naturally localizes to peripheral immune organs, enabling robust gene silencing and transfection specifically within splenic CD3⁺ T cells, with a higher efficiency in CD8⁺ cytotoxic T cells over CD4⁺ helper T cells. This liver-evading, T cell-specific targeting profile makes it a premier tool for in vivo immunotherapy and in situ cell reprogramming.
Handling:
Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance,
we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one
month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at
least 1 hour.
