Lipid 15 is the lead ionizable cationic lipid (ICL) for CD8-targeted mRNA-LNPs. As the core LNP component, Lipid 15 yields ~100 nm uniform particles with near-neutral surface charge at physiological pH, while becoming strongly cationic in acidic endosomes—reducing hepatic off-target uptake and enabling efficient endosomal escape to release mRNA. Versus other ICL candidates, Lipid 15 achieves far higher mRNA transfection efficiency in primary human CD8⁺ T cells, supports robust transient CAR expression, and triggers minimal cytokine release in immunogenicity assays. It retains structural and functional stability after freeze storage. When formulated into anti-CD8 VHH-conjugated LNPs carrying CD22 CAR mRNA, Lipid 15 drives specific in vivo reprogramming of circulating CD8⁺ T cells into functional CAR-T cells, delivering potent tumor suppression in humanized hematological malignancy models without overt toxicity.

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.
