Application

16:0 PEG2000 PE, or 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[methoxy(polyethylene glycol)-2000] has been used in liposome preparation. It has also been used in preparation of tripeptide arginine-glycine-aspartic acid magnetoliposomes (RGD-MLPs) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)- MLPs.

General description

16:0 PEG2000 PE, also known as 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[methoxy(polyethylene glycol)-2000] (DPPEmPEG2000), is a polyethylene glycol (mPEG) phospholipid conjugate. Incorporation of PEG-modified lipid conjugates in liposomes facilitates the formation of sterically stabilized liposomes (SSL), which have low reticuloendothelial system (RES) uptake and prolonged circulation lifetimes. These properties aid the PEGylated liposomes to spontaneously deliver drugs to targeted cells.
