Abstract

See full text

The invention provides synthetic methods for PEGylated cardiolipins with varying linkers. The methods can be employed to prepare PEGylated cardiolipin with different fatty acid and/or alkyl chain length with or without unsaturation. The PEGylated cardiolipin, prepared by the present methods, can be incorporated into liposomes that can also include active agents such as hydrophilic or hydrophobic drugs for the treatment of human and animal diseases. In addition, the PEGylated cardiolipin can be incorporated into liposomes that include compounds for therapeutic and diagnostic imaging. The use of such liposomes with PEGylated cardiolipin prolongs the period of liposomal circulation without disrupting the lipid bilayer.
