The invention provides new synthetic routes for cardiolipin with different fatty acids and/or alkyl chains with varying chain length and also with or without unsaturation. The reaction schemes can be used to generate new forms of cardiolipin, including cardiolipin variants. The cardiolipin prepared by the present methods can conveniently be incorporated into liposomes and other lipid formulations that can also include active agents such as hydrophobic or hydrophilic drugs. Such formulations can be used to treat diseases or in diagnostic and/or analytical assays. Liposomes also can include ligands, e.g., for targeting them to a cell type or specific tissue.
本发明提供了一种用于合成不同脂肪酸和/或不同碳链长度以及有或没有不饱和度的磷脂酰肌醇的新合成路线。反应方案可用于生成新形式的磷脂酰肌醇,包括磷脂酰肌醇变异体。通过本方法制备的磷脂酰肌醇可以方便地被纳入脂质体和其他脂质制剂中,这些制剂也可以包括疏水性或亲水性药物等活性剂。这样的制剂可用于治疗疾病或在诊断和/或分析测定中使用。脂质体还可以包括配体,例如用于将其定向到特定细胞类型或组织的配体。
