Application

18:1 TAP (DOTAP) has been used in the preparation of liposome-supported bilayers.

Biochem/physiol Actions

18:1 TAP (DOTAP) is a cationic lipid structure, used for in vitro and in vivo nucleic acid and protein delivery. The lipid composition and cell type affects the transfection potential of DOTAP(1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane). 18:1 TAP (DOTAP) mediates gene knockdown technique in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs).

Translation of nanoparticles (NPs) into human clinical trials for patients with refractory cancers has lagged due to unknown biologic reactivities of novel NP designs. To overcome these limitations, simple well-characterized mRNA lipid-NPs have been developed as cancer immunotherapeutic vaccines. While

The success of gene technologies hinges on our ability to engineer superior encapsulation and delivery vectors. Cubosomes are lipid-based nanoparticles where membranes, instead of enveloping into classic liposomes, intertwine into complex arrays of pores well-ordered in a cubic lattice. These
