Chol-PEG2000-Glu-urea-Lys

Chol-PEG2000-Glu-urea-Lys/Cholesterol-PEG2000-Glutamic Acid-urea-Lysine can be used to formulate nanoparticles or liposomes that encapsulate drugs,particularly hydrophobic compounds.The PEG portion helps to improve circulation time, while cholesterol can enhance cellular uptake.

The presence of glutamic acid may facilitate targeting specific tissues or cells that express receptors for glutamate or related pathways, making this compound suitable for applications in targeted cancer therapies or other localized treatments.

This conjugate could be utilized in gene therapy to deliver plasmids or small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), where the lipid bilayer aids in membrane fusion and delivery to the cytoplasm.

The chemical functionality and ability to create stable nanoparticles make this conjugate a potential candidate for drug delivery in imaging agents, enhancing visibility in diagnostic procedures.
