None (excipient). Lipid 29 is an ionizable amino lipid with a pKa of 6.91, which is neutral at physiological pH (7.4) and becomes positively charged in acidic endosomes (pH 5-6), enabling nucleic acid encapsulation and facilitating endosomal escape.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Lipid 29 stabilizes LNP structure through hydrogen bonding and pi-pi stacking interactions (contributed by its amino headgroup and hydrophobic tails). In vitro, Lipid 29 LNPs efficiently encapsulate mRNA (>90%) and deliver it to cells, resulting in high transfection efficiency (e.g., EPO protein expression in HepG2 or HEK293 cells). Lipid 29 LNPs show low cytotoxicity.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, intravenous administration of Lipid 29 LNPs encapsulating human EPO mRNA to mice leads to robust EPO protein expression in the circulation, demonstrating efficacy as an mRNA delivery vehicle. The pKa of 6.91 is optimal for endosomal escape, contributing to high potency. Lipid 29 LNPs are primarily hepatotropic, accumulating in the liver after i.v. administration.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Lipid 29 (C₅2H₉₇N3O₆, MW 860.34) is an oil soluble in DMSO (100 mg/mL). For LNP preparation, Lipid 29 is dissolved in ethanol and mixed with helper lipids (e.g., DSPC, cholesterol, PEG2000-DMG or PEG2000-DSPE) at optimized molar ratios (e.g., 50:10:38.5:1.5). This mixture is combined with an acidic aqueous buffer (e.g., 25-50 mM sodium acetate, pH 4) containing mRNA via microfluidic mixing at a flow rate ratio of 3:1 (aqueous:ethanol). LNPs form spontaneously (size ∼80 nm). The pH is raised to 7.4 during dialysis, and pKa is confirmed (∼6.91). Encapsulation efficiency (>90%) is measured by Ribogreen assay.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro studies, Lipid 29 LNPs are diluted in serum-free DMEM. HEK293 or HepG2 cells are seeded in 96-well plates (1-2×10⁴ cells/well) and treated with LNPs at mRNA doses of 0.01-1 ug/well. After 4-6 h, medium is replaced. Luciferase or EPO protein levels are measured 24 h post-transfection by luminescence or ELISA. Cellular uptake is assessed by flow cytometry using fluorescently labeled mRNA. Cytotoxicity is evaluated by MTT assays; Lipid 29 LNPs show cell viability >90% at effective doses.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo studies, Lipid 29 LNPs encapsulating human EPO mRNA or luciferase mRNA are administered intravenously via the tail vein to female BALB/c or C57BL/6 mice (6-8 weeks old) at mRNA doses of 0.1-1 mg/kg. Blood samples are collected at 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h post-dose via retro-orbital bleeding or tail vein snip. Serum EPO levels are quantified by human EPO ELISA. For luciferase: in vivo bioluminescence imaging is performed 6-24 h post-dose after D-luciferin injection. Mice are euthanized 24-72 h post-dose; tissues (liver, spleen, lung, kidney) are harvested for ex vivo imaging, qRT-PCR to quantify mRNA distribution, and H&E histology.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Following i.v. administration, Lipid 29 LNPs have a circulation half-life of ∼2-4 h. LNPs accumulate primarily in the liver (∼50-70% of injected dose) and spleen (∼10-20%). The ionizable amino lipid has a calculated logP consistent with hepatocyte uptake via apolipoprotein E (ApoE)-mediated endocytosis. Metabolism likely involves hydrolysis of ester linkages, releasing fatty acids and amino alcohol fragments that are cleared via biliary and renal routes. mRNA is released in the cytosol and translated into protein (e.g., EPO).
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Lipid 29 LNPs are generally well-tolerated at mRNA doses ≤1 mg/kg. Mild, transient elevation of liver enzymes (ALT/AST) may occur, returning to baseline within 48 h. No significant histopathological changes in the liver or other organs have been reported. Inflammatory cytokine levels (IL-6, TNF-alpha) may be transiently elevated. Lipid 29 is not considered toxic at therapeutic doses; however, comprehensive toxicity studies (e.g., repeat-dose, genotoxicity) are not publicly available.
