Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine and relates to an ionizable cationic lipid and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Nucleic acid drugs include DNA drugs, mRNA drugs and small nucleic acid drugs. They mainly face the problems of how to efficiently enter target cells, release into the cytoplasm, and exert their effects efficiently and for a long time. Efficient and safe, precise targeting and improved stability are the key to technological breakthroughs. At present, nucleic acid in vivo delivery vectors are mainly divided into two types: viral vectors and non-viral vectors. Viral vectors have very high delivery efficiency and can ensure long-term gene expression, but their complex preparation process, high cost, easy to cause immune response in the body, involving biosafety issues, and limited size of target gene fragments limit the application of viral vectors. Compared with viral vectors, non-viral lipid-based delivery systems (such as lipid nanoparticles, LNP) have gradually become key tools for nucleic acid vaccines and treatments due to their advantages in safety, tolerance, repeated administration ability and large-scale gene cargo carrying capacity.

[0003] LNPs are usually composed of four components: ionizable cationic lipids, phospholipids, cholesterol, and PEGylated lipids. Each component plays a crucial role in the stability, transfection effect, and safety of LNPs. For the formation of mRNA-LNPs, different lipids and mRNA are usually dissolved in ethanol and acidic aqueous phases, respectively. Then, the ethanol and aqueous phases are mixed with a microfluidic device at a volume ratio of 1:3 to complete the self-assembly process. During the formation process, the ionizable cationic lipids are protonated and positively charged, and then bind to the negatively charged mRNA through electrostatic interactions, thereby encapsulating the mRNA in the LNP. At the same time, other auxiliary lipids, including phospholipids, cholesterol, and PEGylated lipids, self-assemble on them to stabilize the formed mRNA-LNPs. Subsequently, the mRNA-LNP solution is adjusted to a neutral pH by buffer replacement, during which the ionizable lipids become uncharged, making them stable and less toxic at physiological pH. LNPs have the advantages of definite structures of each component, good reproducibility, and good quality control, as well as long in vivo circulation time and good biocompatibility. After entering the cell, nanoparticles need to escape from the endosome / lysosome to release RNA in the cytoplasm so that it can be expressed to produce the target protein. Therefore, endosomal / lysosomal escape is a key step affecting nucleic acid delivery.

[0004] Chinese patent CN118388370A discloses a quaternary ammonium salt cationic lipid analog, its composition and application, by chemically modifying or modifying an ionizable cationic lipid analog to obtain a class of quaternary ammonium salt cationic lipid analogs, and using quaternary ammonium salt cationic lipid analogs to replace the auxiliary phospholipid component in the traditional four-component lipid nanoparticles to form a new LNP delivery system for organ / tissue targeted mRNA delivery. However, this patent only studies the performance of the new LNP delivery system for organ / tissue targeted mRNA delivery, and does not focus on the endosomal / lysosomal escape rate of the new LNP delivery system.

[0005] DLin-MC3-DMA (1,2dilinoleyloxy3dimethylaminopropane) is a synthetic cationic lipid that has been widely studied for gene therapy and mRNA vaccines due to its efficient nucleic acid delivery ability. DLin-MC3-DMA has a unique pH-dependent charge variable property: it is positively charged under acidic conditions and electrically neutral under physiological pH conditions. Therefore, nucleic acids are encapsulated under acidic conditions, and the formed liposomes have a very small positive charge density in the blood, that is, very low cytotoxicity. Although DLin-MC3-DMA cationic liposomes can increase the lysosomal escape of particles in the body due to their positive charge, only 1%-4% of RNA escapes the endosomes / lysosomes.

[0006] In view of this, there is an urgent need for an LNP delivery system that has both good nucleic acid encapsulation capacity and high endosomal / lysosomal escape ability. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies in previous studies and provide an ionizable cationic lipid and a preparation method and application thereof. The LNP delivery system composed of the ionizable cationic lipid prepared by the present invention has both good nucleic acid encapsulation capacity and high endosomal / lysosomal escape capacity, and the preparation method is simple, which has great research significance and practical needs.
