DSPE-PEG2k-tri mannose A88161 (Previously 880161) 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[carboxy(polyethylene glycol)-2000]-N-tri mannose, ammonium salt
One of the challenges with Lipid Nano particles (LNPs) is the ability to be able to deliver the payload to the desired cells. However, certain functional groups could target desirable cells and by coupling this to a PEG lipid, researchers can achieve drug delivery to specific cells. By coupling mannose with the DSPE-PEG2K, researches can achieve a targeted delivery to various desirable systems. DSPE-PEG2k-tri mannose can be used to target Tumor related macrophages in the liver, spleen, and lung.
