Description:
Lipid-87 is an ionizable lipid developed by Generation Bio, characterized by its tertiary amine group for pH-dependent protonation and dual C16/C17 aliphatic chains that enhance hydrophobic stability.As the core component (47.5–57.5 mol%) of stealth lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), Lipid87 enables extended blood circulation (>24-hour half-life vs. 30 min for conventional LNPs) by synergizing with steric-stabilizing polymers (e.g., DSG-PEG₂₀₀₀-OMe), achieves >95% encapsulation efficiency for mRNA/ceDNA with low cytotoxicity (IC₅₀ >100 μM), and drives liver-specific targeting (>80% hepatocyte transfection at 0.5 mpk), effectively restoring 40% FIX activity in hemophilia B models for over 7 days.
Handling:
Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance,
we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one
month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at
least 1 hour.
