About

A cholesterol-conjugated phosphorothioate siRNA — chemistry borrowed from therapeutic gene-silencing drugs, not a typical cosmetic ingredient. No SCCS opinion and class-level immune and off-target concerns warrant strong caution.

Skin benefits

  • Theoretical gene-silencing payload
  • Lipid-conjugated delivery

Known concerns

  • Phosphorothioate siRNAs have therapeutic-class hazards
  • Off-target binding and immune activation potential
  • No SCCS opinion for cosmetic use
  • Cholesterol conjugation enhances cellular uptake
  • Sparse topical safety data
