DSPE-PEG2000-KTP is a PEG compound which composed of DSPE and a Kidney-targeting peptide KTP. KTP can interact with specific proteins on the surface of renal tubular epithelial cells or exhibit higher affinity in the specific renal microenvironment, tending to aggregate or be internalized within the renal tubular epithelium. DSPE-PEG2000-KTP can actively guide carriers such as nanomedicines, liposomes, and microspheres to the kidney [1].
In Vitro, Lipids used to prepare nanoparticles are a class of amphiphilic biomolecules that combine structural diversity, biocompatibility, and functional tunability. As the core framework of nanodelivery systems, they not only form lipid bilayers or solid matrices through self-assembly to encapsulate lipophilic or hydrophilic drugs, but can also be further subdivided according to formulation requirements into structural lipids (such as phospholipids and triglycerides), functional lipids (such as ionizable cationic lipids used for nucleic acid condensation and endosome escape), and sterically stable lipids (such as PEGylated lipids).
