Lipid 1A7B13
Instructions for Use
Product information
1A7B13 is a top-performing "tripod-like" lung-targeting (LuT) lipid. It forms lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) that, after intravenous injection, deliver genetic medicines (like mRNA and CRISPR-Cas9) to the lungs with over 90% selectivity, particularly favoring epithelial cells. Compared to the benchmark DOTAP LNPs, 1A7B13 LNPs achieve a 25.5-fold increase in mRNA delivery and a 9.2-fold improvement in gene-editing efficiency within the lungs. Its therapeutic potential was demonstrated by successfully delivering IL-10 mRNA to treat acute lung injury in mice.

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.
| N/P ratio | Not reported in the verified record |
| Cargo | Not available in the verified record |
| Administration route | Not available in the verified record |
| Animal model | Not available in the verified record |
| 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.
