OH-C-Chol is a cationic cholesterol derivative. OH-C-Chol, as a component of lipoplexes with DOPE , has been used for siRNA delivery and gene silencing in MCF-7 cells as well as in mice via intravenous injection, resulting in lipoplex accumulation in the liver.
OH-C-Chol is a cationic liposome that serves as a siRNA delivery vehicle. OH-C-Chol (LP-C) and OH-NC-Chol (LP-NC)/siRNA complexes (lipoplexes) showed better performance than NP-C and NP-NC/siRNA complexes (nanocomplexes), respectively. ) greater gene silencing effect[1].
