3ß-[N-(N',N'-dimethylaminoethane)-carbamoyl]cholesterol hydrochloride
Prepared from synthetic cholesterol, DC-cholesterol-HCl has been shown to have potential as a nanocarrier for nucleic acids and drug therapies. DC-cholesterol is a derivative of cholesterol with a quarternary amine salt attached via the 3-C position. DC-cholesterol can be combined with DOPE (850725) to produce powerful liposomes.
