YSK 12C4
Based on 1 Customer Validation
YSK 12C4 is an ionizable cationic lipid primarily used to enhance siRNA cellular delivery via multifunctional envelope-type nanodevices (MEND). YSK 12C4 promotes siRNA uptake and endosomal escape, effectively silencing genes in human immune cell lines.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
A multifunctional envelope-type nanodevice (MEND) containing YSK 12C4 lipid (YSK12-MEND) can be used to deliver siRNA to mouse DC15. YSK 12C4 is an ionizable-cationic lipid containing unsaturated carbon chains, which facilitate efficient endosomal escape. The use of the YSK12-MEND resulted in a gene silencing efficiency in excess of 90%, with an ED50 of 1.5 nM in mouse DC15[1].

RNA interference technology
RNA interference (RNAi) is a cellular mechanism that inhibits gene expression by suppressing gene transcription or activating RNA degradation. This mechanism was discovered in plants in 1998 by Andrew Fire and Craig Mello. Today, this phenomenon can be observed in almost all eukaryotes, including protozoa, flies, nematodes, insects, parasites, and mammals.
