Abstract:Lipid nanoparticles have gained clinical approval as carriers for both siRNA and mRNA. Among the crucial components of LNPs, ionizable lipids play a pivotal role in determining the efficiency of RNA delivery. In this study, we synthesized a series of ionizable lipids, denoted as HTO, with a higher count of hydroxyl groups compared to SM-102. Remarkably, LNPs based on HTO12 lipid demonstrated comparable mRNA delivery efficiency and biosafety to those based on SM-102. However, the former reduced the ratio of ion… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
