General description

1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-ethylphosphocholine (16:0-18:1 EPC) is cationic lipid containing an ethyl group attached to the phosphate moiety through an ester bond and has a choline headgroup.

Application

1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-ethylphosphocholine (chloride salt) (16:0-18:1 EPC (Cl Salt)) might be used:
  • as a cationic lipid to explore the change in organization and dynamics of a membrane-bound fluorescent probe in host membranes of varying charge
  • in the preparation of small unilamellar cationic liposomes
  • in a novel albumin-associated lipoplex formulation to evaluate the antitumoral efficacy of immuno-gene therapy and “suicide” gene therapy

Biochem/physiol Actions

1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-ethylphosphocholine (16:0-18:1 EPC) is a potential transfection agent, which is also like the natural lipids.
