Ionizable Lipid 4
Instructions for Use
Product information
Ionizable lipid 4 is an ionizable cationic lipid (pKa = 6.1) and a hydrogen peroxide-induced rearrangement product of the cationic lipid CA-lipid 5.1 Charge-altering lipid nanoparticles (CALNPs) containing CA-lipid 5 and encapsulating siRNA against EGFP undergo hydrogen peroxide-induced removal of the phenylboronic acid groups from CA-lipid 5 in MCF-7 cells in vitro, generating ionizable lipid 4-containing LNPs with reduced positive charges at physiological pH, facilitating intracellular siRNA release and gene silencing. LNPs containing ionizable lipid 4 and encapsulating siRNA against PLK1 reduce tumor volume in an MCF-7 mouse xenograft model less effectively than CALNPs containing CA-lipid 5.

Formulation & study context
Literature information refers to the cited study and its particular formulation. Administration routes are research context, not clinical instructions or a guarantee of performance.
A complete product-specific formulation has not been verified. No standard ratio is substituted.

| Formulation process | Not available in the verified record |
N/P is the molar ratio of specified lipid nitrogen groups to nucleic-acid phosphate groups. A lipid:cargo mass ratio is a different quantity and must not be used as N/P.

Provided that storage conditions are as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 1 year.
Wherever possible, prepare and use solutions on the same day. If stock solutions must be prepared in advance, store them as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be usable for up to one month.
Before use, and prior to opening the vial, allow the product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
