[0002] Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are nanoscale particles composed of lipid materials, commonly used to encapsulate and deliver bioactive substances such as nucleic acids (e.g., mRNA, siRNA), proteins, and drugs. These particles exhibit good biocompatibility and biodegradability, and can effectively penetrate cell membranes, thereby delivering active ingredients into the cell. They are widely used in gene therapy, vaccine development, and drug delivery. In recent years, with the rapid development of nucleic acid drugs and mRNA vaccines, the research and application of LNPs have received considerable attention.

[0030] Amino lipid compounds are entirely hydrophobic due to their long, nonpolar residues, while the amino groups also possess hydrophilic properties. This amphiphilic nature allows amino lipid compounds to be used to form lipid nanoparticles, such as lipid bilayers, micelles, and liposomes. The hydrophobic portion of amino lipid compounds helps stabilize the structure of lipid nanoparticles, while the amino groups generate strong hydrophilicity in vivo, increasing the water solubility and biocompatibility of lipid nanoparticles.
[0031] Within the scope of this invention, the term "lipid nanoparticles" refers to nanoscale substances prepared by placing an amino-lipid compound in an aqueous solution. These particles are, in particular, lipid nanoparticles, lipid bilayer vesicles (liposomes), multilayer vesicles, or micelles. In some preferred embodiments, lipid nanoparticles are liposomes containing the amino-lipid compound of this disclosure, and liposomes are microvesicles composed of a bilayer of amphiphilic lipid molecules encapsulating aqueous compartments. Liposome formation is not a spontaneous process. When lipids are placed in water, lipid vesicles are first formed, thus forming a bilayer or a series of bilayers, each separated by water molecules. Liposomes can be formed by sonicating lipid vesicles in water. Within the scope of this invention, the term "lipid bilayer" refers to a thin film formed by two layers of lipid molecules. The term "micelle" refers to an aggregate of surfactant molecules dispersed in a liquid colloid. Typical micelles in aqueous solutions aggregate with the hydrophilic head region upon contact with water, integrating the hydrophobic single-tail region of the micelle center.
[0032] Therefore, lipid nanoparticles possess excellent encapsulation properties for bioactive ingredients, and lipid nanoparticles containing bioactive ingredients can be used to deliver any of a variety of therapeutic agents into cells. This invention discloses the use of lipid nanoparticles, as described above, for delivering bioactive ingredients into cells. This invention also provides methods for delivering bioactive ingredients into cells, tissues, or organs, comprising contacting lipid nanoparticles containing bioactive ingredients with the cells, tissues, or organs, providing novel therapeutic possibilities for organisms.
[0033] The amphiphilic nature of lipid nanoparticles enables them to effectively encapsulate nucleic acid molecules (such as DNA or RNA) and enter cells through the cell membrane. This highly efficient cellular uptake significantly improves the efficiency of nucleic acid transport. Lipid nanoparticles can form a protective coating, preventing nucleic acid degradation in the in vivo environment and enhancing its stability. By reducing contact with external enzymes and other reactive molecules, lipid nanoparticles ensure the preservation of nucleic acid activity.
[0034] Based on the design of lipid nanoparticles, targeted release can be achieved by modulating their surface properties. By modifying the affinity ligands of lipid molecules, nanoparticles can bind more selectively to specific cell types, thereby achieving targeted transport. The construction of lipid nanoparticles can be designed to have controllable release properties, ensuring the release of nucleic acids under appropriate time and environmental conditions. This tunability can improve therapeutic efficacy and reduce side effects. The interaction between the formation of lipid nanoparticles and the cell membrane can promote their entry into specific subcellular structures within the cell, enhancing the biological effects of nucleic acids. For example, they can help transport nucleic acids into the cell nucleus, thereby improving transcription and translation efficiency.
[0035] Lipid nanoparticles, based on natural lipids or their derivatives, typically exhibit good biocompatibility, reducing toxic reactions in organisms and contributing to improved drug safety. Beyond nucleic acid transport, lipid nanoparticles can also be surface-modified to incorporate other drug components, enabling combination therapy. This versatility gives them significant potential for treating various diseases, such as cancer and genetic defects.
[0036] In one embodiment, the present invention discloses the use of amino-lipid compounds for preparing carriers of active ingredients. In some embodiments, the carrier is in the form of lipid nanoparticles, such as lipid bilayers, micelles, or liposomes.
[0037] In one embodiment, the lipid nanoparticles contain an amino lipid compound and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient, all of which work together to ensure the stability, delivery efficiency, and biocompatibility of the nanoparticles.
[0038] Carriers can be phospholipids, cholesterol, polyethylene glycol (PEG), lactose, etc. Carriers provide support, stabilizing the structure of lipid nanoparticles and preventing aggregation or degradation in vivo or in vitro. Certain carriers (such as PEG) can prolong drug circulation time in vivo, increasing the probability of the drug reaching the target tissue. Carriers can also optimize the biocompatibility of nanoparticles, reducing recognition and clearance by the immune system and improving efficacy.
[0039] Diluents can be water, sterile saline, glucose solution, etc. They are used to adjust the concentration of the lipid nanoparticle dispersion to an acceptable level for easy injection or administration. Appropriate diluents can reduce interparticle interactions, prolong the stability of the dispersion system, and prevent particle aggregation. Diluents also help ensure uniform distribution of nanoparticles in the solution, guaranteeing consistent dosage and facilitating precise delivery.
[0040] Excipients can be glycerol, polysorbate 80 (such as Tween 80), propylene glycol, sorbitol, etc. Excipients can impart better physical properties to lipid nanoparticles, such as increasing their flowability, lubricity, and palatability, making the dosage form more suitable for clinical use. Excipients can protect the active pharmaceutical ingredient in the nanoparticles from degradation or oxidation; for example, antioxidant excipients can prolong drug stability. Some excipients can interact with the outer layer of nanoparticles, regulating the drug release rate and thus prolonging the duration of drug action.
[0041] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lipid nanoparticles further include at least one of auxiliary lipids, structural lipids, and polyethylene glycol-lipids, wherein the molar ratio of aminolipid compound: auxiliary lipid: structural lipid: polyethylene glycol-lipid is 28-60:5-42:15.5-53.5:0.5-3.5. For example, it can be 45:10:42.5:2.5, 45:11:41.5:2.5, 42.0:10.5:45.0:2.5, 42.0:16.0:39.5:2.5, 40.0:16.0:41.5:2.5, 40.0:18.0:39.5:2.5, 35.0:16.0:46.5:2.5, 35.0:25.0: 36.5:3.5, 28.0:33.5:35.0:3.5, 32.0:37.0:40.5:0.5, 35.0:40.0:22.5:2.5, 40.0:42.0:15.5:25, 40.0:20.0:38.5:1.5, 45.0:15.0:38.5:1.5, 55.0:5.0:38.5:1.5 60.0:5.0:33.5:1.5, 45.0:20.0:33.5:1.5, 50.0:20.0:28.5:1.5, 55.0:20.0:23.5:1.5, 60.0:20.0:18.5:1.5, 40.0:15.0:43.5:1.5, 50.0:15.0:33.5:1.5, 55.0:15. 0:28.5:1.5, 60.0:15.0:23.5:1.5, 40.0:10.0:48.5:15, 45.0:10.0:43.5:1.5, 55.0:10.0:33.5:1.5, 40.0:5.0:53.5:1.5, 45.0:5.0:48.5:1.5, 50.0:5.0:43.5:1.5.
[0042] Optimizing the molar ratio helps obtain lipid nanoparticles of appropriate size, ensuring a uniform particle size distribution and avoiding overly large or small particles. This facilitates in vivo delivery and improves drug loading and delivery efficiency. By adjusting the proportions of lipid components, lipid nanoparticles suitable for different production scales can be obtained, thus making the technology highly scalable and suitable for large-scale industrial production. Optimizing the composition of lipid nanoparticles by adjusting the molar ratios of different lipids can improve the cell membrane penetration and endocytosis efficiency of liposomes, ensuring that mRNA can effectively enter target cells for expression.
[0043] By adjusting the molar ratio of aminolipid compounds, auxiliary lipids, structural lipids, and PEG-lipids, the particle size, morphology, and surface properties of lipid nanoparticles can be further optimized, thereby enhancing their uptake and release efficiency in specific cells or tissues.
[0044] By using an appropriate molar ratio, lipid nanoparticles can better avoid recognition and clearance by the immune system in vivo, thereby reducing immune responses and side effects. Furthermore, a suitable lipid ratio helps prevent premature degradation of lipid particles in vivo, enhancing their long-term stability.
[0045] In summary, the composition and molar ratio of these lipid nanoparticles provide an optimized delivery system that can effectively improve the stability, delivery efficiency, cell penetration, and biocompatibility of mRNA, thus providing a more efficient and safer delivery platform for mRNA vaccines or gene therapy applications.
[0046] The auxiliary lipids include phospholipids, including at least one of distearylphosphatidylcholine, oleoylphosphatidylethanolamine, dioleoyllecithin, dioleoylphosphatidylserine, 1,2-octacosacyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate-(1'-rac-glycerol), dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol, dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol-3'-O-4'-(N,N,N-trimethyl)homoserine, and phospholipids.
[0047] As auxiliary components in lipid systems, helper lipids can increase the stability of lipid particles, improve their morphology and size distribution, and further enhance mRNA delivery efficiency. Simultaneously, helper lipids can also help improve the formation of lipid bilayers, preventing premature degradation of lipid particles in vivo.
[0048] Structural lipids include sterols, which include at least one of cholesterol, cholesterol esters, sterol hormones, sterol vitamins, bile acids, cholesterol, ergosterol, β-sitosterol, and oxidized cholesterol derivatives.
[0049] Structural lipids provide core support and stability for lipid particles, ensuring the integrity and functionality of lipid nanoparticles, thereby effectively encapsulating mRNA and preventing its degradation during transport.
[0050] Polyethylene glycol-lipids include at least one of polyethylene glycol-distearate phosphatidylethanolamine and polyethylene glycol derivatives of 1,2-dimyristic acid glyceride, wherein the average molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol in the polyethylene glycol-lipid is 2000 to 5000. For example, it can be 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, etc.
[0051] Polyethylene glycol-lipids (PEG-lipids) are commonly used to increase the blood half-life of lipid nanoparticles and reduce their clearance by the immune system. The hydrophilic portion of PEG gives lipid particles greater stability and reduces non-specific adsorption of lipid nanoparticles to cell surfaces, thereby improving drug targeting and delivery efficiency.
[0052] The role of PEG-lipids: PEG-modified lipids can effectively reduce the interaction between lipid nanoparticles and proteins and immune cells in the blood, thereby prolonging the circulation time of lipid nanoparticles and reducing their distribution in non-target tissues. By optimizing the ratio of PEG-lipids, the accumulation of lipid particles in target tissues (such as liver and muscle) can be improved, thus increasing delivery efficiency.
[0053] The molecular weight of PEG has a significant impact on the surface properties and particle size of lipid particles. An appropriate PEG molecular weight can regulate the size and surface properties of lipid particles, leading to better distribution and delivery in vivo. Too small a PEG may fail to effectively reduce the immune response, while too large a PEG may result in excessively large particles that hinder endocytosis. By optimizing the PEG molecular weight and lipid ratio, it is possible to ensure the stability and size uniformity of liposomes while avoiding cellular rejection of the particles, thus enhancing their delivery efficiency.
[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the aminolipid compound includes compound (Ⅰ), step S1 includes:
[0055] S1.1. Add a phosphorus source reagent to compounds M11 and M12 to carry out a substitution reaction to obtain compound M13, wherein the phosphorus source reagent includes phosphorus oxychloride.
[0056] Phosphorus source reagents are used to initiate substitution reactions, typically by substituting the position of functional groups or functional groups. The selectivity of the phosphorus source reagent and the reaction conditions can affect the selectivity and yield of the reaction, and are therefore crucial in optimizing synthetic routes. This step of the reaction helps to introduce phosphate groups, endowing compounds with higher hydrophilicity or biological activity, and is widely used, especially in drug development.
[0057] S1.2. Compounds M13 and M14 are placed in an alkaline reagent and subjected to an amidation reaction to obtain compound M15. The alkaline reagent includes at least one of triethylamine, pyridine, N-methylmorpholine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, potassium carbonate, and potassium hydroxide.
[0058] Amide fusion is a common bonding reaction in chemical synthesis, enabling the efficient connection of amino and acyl groups to form biologically active amide bonds. Basic reagents typically facilitate the deprotonation of the amine group, increasing its nucleophilicity and thus promoting the amidation reaction. Different basic reagents can affect the reaction rate and selectivity. By precisely controlling the type and concentration of the basic reagent, the desired amidated product can be obtained in the synthesis, avoiding side reactions.
[0059] S1.3. Compound M16 and compound M17a are placed in an alkaline reagent to undergo a condensation reaction to obtain compound M18; or, compound M16 and compound M17b are placed in an alkaline reagent to undergo a substitution reaction to obtain compound M18.
[0060] This step generates new chemical bonds through condensation reactions, typically involving the removal of small molecules (such as water and alcohols), which is crucial for the formation of large molecules or complex structures. Different reagents or reaction conditions can selectively introduce new functional groups, further altering the properties or biological activity of the molecule. For example, substitution reactions can introduce different alkyl, aryl, or other functional groups, providing greater diversity for subsequent synthesis. By choosing different reaction pathways (condensation or substitution), structurally different but functionally similar products can be obtained. This provides greater flexibility for subsequent steps.
[0061] S1.4. Compounds M15 and M18 were placed in a basic reagent and subjected to a nucleophilic substitution reaction to obtain compound (Ⅰ).
[0062] Nucleophilic substitution reactions involve a nucleophile reacting with a carbon atom or other electron-deficient center in the reactant to form a new chemical bond. This reaction is commonly used to construct complex organic molecules and exhibits high selectivity. Nucleophilic substitution reactions facilitate the introduction of specific functional groups into synthetic routes, thereby optimizing the functional properties of the final product, such as improving the water solubility, stability, or bioactivity of drugs. Precise control of reaction conditions can improve the yield and purity of the reaction, ensuring the quality of the synthesized target compound, which is especially crucial in the synthesis of complex molecules.
[0063] The structural formula of the above compound is:
[0064]
[0065] The reaction process is as follows:
[0066]
[0067] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the aminolipid compound includes compound (II), step S1 includes:
[0068] S1.1. A phosphorus source reagent is added to compounds M21 and M22 to carry out a substitution reaction, yielding compound M23. The phosphorus source reagent includes phosphorus trichloride. The use of this phosphorus source reagent stably introduces phosphorus, resulting in an active phosphorus group in the compound structure. This facilitates further modification in subsequent reactions, improves the reactivity of the target compound and the efficiency of introducing specific functional groups, thereby enabling the substitution reaction between the hydroxyl groups and chlorine atoms in compounds M21 and M22.
[0069] S1.2 Compounds M23 and M24 are placed in an alkaline reagent to undergo a substitution reaction, yielding compound M25. The alkaline reagent includes at least one selected from triethylamine, pyridine, N-methylmorpholine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, potassium carbonate, and potassium hydroxide. The alkaline environment in this step effectively promotes the substitution reaction between the chlorine atom in compound M23 and the terminal hydrogen group in compound M24, generating the desired functional group and ensuring high selectivity. Furthermore, the alkaline environment inhibits side reactions, improving product purity and reaction yield. This endows the final compound with better structural stability.
[0070] The bromine atom in compound M24 can also be replaced with an iodine atom, or with a sulfide group (-SH). When the sulfide group reacts with a strong reducing agent (such as hydrogen) or other reducing chemicals, a reduction reaction occurs to produce hydrogen sulfide.
[0071] S1.3. Compounds M26 and M27 are placed in an acidic reagent for iminolation to yield compound M28. The acidic reagent includes at least one of acetic acid, hydrochloric acid, and p-toluenesulfonic acid. Under acidic conditions (such as acetic acid or hydrochloric acid), the aldehyde group of compound M26 reacts with the amino group of compound M27 to generate the imine intermediate M28. The iminolation reaction introduces a double bond and nitrogen element into the target molecule by forming an imine group containing C=N. The technical advantage of this step is that the introduction of the imine group increases the functional group diversity of the compound, enhances intermolecular interactions, and creates conditions for further reduction reactions.
[0072] S1.4. Add a reducing agent to compound M28 to carry out a reduction reaction to obtain compound M29, wherein the reducing agent includes at least one of sodium borohydride, lithium aluminum hydride, and sodium cyanoborohydride.
[0073] In this step, imine intermediate M28 is reduced to amino intermediate M29 by adding a reducing agent (such as sodium cyanoborohydride). The reduction reaction ensures the complete conversion of the imine group, resulting in a more stable amino structure. The technical advantage of this reduction step is that it improves the chemical stability of the target compound, avoids the reactivity of the C=N double bond, thereby enhancing the controllability of subsequent reactions and the biocompatibility of the product.
[0074] S1.5. Compounds M25 and M29 were placed in a basic reagent and subjected to a nucleophilic substitution reaction to obtain compound (II). The selection of the nucleophile helps optimize the reaction rate and selectivity, making the reaction more efficient. This reaction endows compound (II) with a unique arrangement of active functional groups and stability, while ensuring the efficient formation of the final product. The technical advantage of this substitution reaction is that it enhances the compound's biological activity, solubility, and versatility of applications.

[0079]
[0080] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the aminolipid compound includes compound (Ⅲ), step S1 includes:
[0081] S1.1 Add an activator to compounds M31 and M32 to carry out an acyl chloride reaction, and then place them in an alkaline reagent to obtain M33. The activator includes at least one of thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride, thionyl chloride, and cyanogen chloride, and the alkaline reagent includes at least one of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, triethylamine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, pyridine, potassium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and N-methylmorpholine.
[0082] Acyl chloride reactions enhance the reactivity of molecules by introducing acyl chloride functional groups, making them more selective and efficient in subsequent amidation reactions. Furthermore, acyl chloride treatment effectively reduces the formation of unwanted byproducts, thereby improving the overall reaction purity.
[0083] S1.2. Compounds M33 and M34 are placed in an alkaline reagent and subjected to an amidation reaction to obtain M35.
[0084] Amide reactions convert acyl chloride intermediates into amide structures, improving molecular stability and increasing the number of polar and hydrogen bond donors in the molecule, thus enhancing the solubility of the final product in water or other polar solvents. Simultaneously, the introduction of amide bonds enhances the biocompatibility of the compound, contributing to its performance in pharmaceutical or biological applications.
[0085] S1.3. Compounds M36 and M37 were placed in an alkaline reagent to undergo a substitution reaction, yielding M38.
[0086] Substitution reactions introduce specific functional groups, enhancing intermolecular interactions and potential functionality by altering the chemical structure of the compound. This process helps improve the chemical stability and durability of the compound, making it more stable in different environments and thus broadening its application range.
[0087] S1.4. Compounds M35 and M38 were placed in an alkaline reagent to carry out a cross-linking reaction, yielding compound (Ⅲ).
[0088] The cross-linking reaction forms a multifunctional network structure, giving compound (III) higher mechanical strength and thermal stability, especially exhibiting superior tensile strength and hydrolysis resistance in materials science. The cross-linking structure also endows the compound with better chemical corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use under high-intensity or special environmental conditions.

[0263] In one embodiment of the present invention, the preparation steps of lipid nanoparticles encapsulating luciferase mRNA (FucmRNA) include:
[0264] Add 3 μL of CleanCapFluc mRNA stock solution (1 mg / mL), 5.63 μL of 0.1 M sodium acetate buffer, and 13.87 μL to a container and mix well to obtain the aqueous phase.
[0265] The amino lipid compound, auxiliary lipid, structural lipid, and PEG-lipid of this disclosure were dissolved in anhydrous ethanol to prepare solutions with concentrations of 20 mg / mL, 10 mg / mL, 20 mg / mL, and 25 mg / mL, respectively. Using a molar ratio of Lipid:DSPC:Cholesterol:DMG-PEG2000 of 48:10:40.5:1.5, the four solutions were transferred to prepare an alcohol phase with a Lipid concentration of 7.3 mmol / L.
[0266] Take 7.5 μL of the above ethanol solution and aqueous solution, mix them quickly, and then add 570 μL of 25 mM Tris buffer-10% sucrose (pH 7.0, filtered) solution and mix rapidly to obtain the mRNA-LNP complex sample.
[0267] Furthermore, the in vitro mRNA-LNP delivery efficiency assay includes:
[0268] The cell line used was HEK-293 (Procell, CL-0001); the culture medium was DMEM (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum; and the selection method was 24-well plate cell transfection.
[0269] Detection (readout): Absolute value of reporter gene firefly luciferase activity relative to total cellular protein expression (total protein content per well was measured using a BCA protein concentration assay kit, Beyotime, P0012) (firefly luciferase activity was indirectly determined by measuring biofluorescence intensity using a Luciferase Assay Kit, Promega E1483). The TransIT-mRNA Transfection Kit (Mirusbio, MIR2225) was used as a positive control according to the manufacturer's instructions.
[0270] The steps include:
[0271] 1. One day before mRNA transfection, HEK293 cells were seeded into 24-well plates at 25,000 cells / ml, 0.4 ml per well, and cultured overnight at 37°C and 5% CO2 to allow the cells to adhere.
[0272] 2. On the day of transfection, prepare the TransIT-mRNAReagent / mRNABoost / RNA complex and the mRNA-LNP complex, respectively.
[0273] a) Take 240 μL of preheated Opti-MEM serum-reduced medium and put it into a 1.5 ml centrifuge tube. First, add 1.2 μg mRNA and gently mix by pipetting. Then, add 2.4 μL mRNABoost and gently mix by pipetting. Finally, add 2.4 μL mRNAReagent and gently mix by pipetting. Let it stand at room temperature for 5 min to form a complex. Take 100 μL of the complex and add it evenly to each well of cells. Add it to 2 wells in total.
[0274] b) Take 100 μL of the prepared mRNA-LNP complex and add it evenly to each well of cells. Add 2 wells for each LNP sample.
[0275] c) Gently shake the 24-well plate and incubate it overnight in an incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2.
[0276] 3. On the second day after transfection, remove the 24-well plate from the incubator, aspirate the cell supernatant, add 150 μL of cell lysis buffer (Passivelysis 5X buffer, Promega, E1941) to each well, repeatedly pipette the cells, collect them into a new 1.5 ml centrifuge tube, centrifuge at 14000 rpm for 30 s, take 20 μL of cell lysis supernatant for BCA assay, and take 2 μL of cell lysis supernatant for luciferase assay. Use a Varioskan LUX multi-mode microplate reader (Thermo, VLBL00D1) to perform absorbance and chemiluminescence assays at 562 nm, respectively.
[0277]
[0278] The test results are shown in Table 1:
[0279] Table 1:
[0280]
[0281]
[0282] The TransIT control group showed high luciferase activity (around 1.65E+06), indicating high transfection efficiency. Therefore, it can be used as a positive control to assess the relative efficiency of other LNP samples. The numerical differences between different LNP samples (e.g., I-1, I-2, etc.) in the table indicate varying mRNA delivery efficiencies in HEK-293 cells based on different formulations. For example, some samples showed high luciferase activity (e.g., I-29, I-37, etc.), while others showed low activity (e.g., I-6, I-12, etc.), indicating significant differences in delivery efficiency among these samples.
[0283] The two repeated measurements for each sample were generally close, indicating good experimental reproducibility. Larger differences between the two measurements for some samples may suggest poor sample stability or homogeneity, warranting further optimization. The delivery efficiency of different LNP samples could be evaluated by comparing the luciferase activity of the TransIT control group and LNP samples. The higher value of the control group provided a benchmark for LNP samples; if the sample's value was close to or higher than the control group, the delivery effect was more ideal; conversely, the delivery effect needed improvement.
[0284] In one embodiment, the in vitro toxicity detection device for LNP nanoparticles includes:
[0285] (1) Ingredients:
[0286] A specified amount of RNase-free purified water and sodium acetate buffer were added to a container and mixed to prepare a 0.25 M sodium acetate solution. The amino lipid compound, auxiliary lipid, structural lipid, and PEG-lipid of this disclosure were dissolved in anhydrous ethanol to prepare solutions with concentrations of 20 mg / mL, 10 mg / mL, 20 mg / mL, and 25 mg / mL, respectively. Using a molar ratio of Lipid:DSPC:CHO-HPM-DMG-2000 of 48:10:40.5:1.5, the four solutions were transferred to prepare an alcohol phase with a Lipid concentration of 7.3 mmol / L.
[0287] (2) Microfluidic control equipment:
[0288] A blank lipid nanoparticle sample was obtained by injecting the aqueous phase into the microfluidic chip at a flow rate of 7.5 mL / min and the alcohol phase at 4 mL / min using an automated syringe pump.
[0289] (3) Dialysis: The product from step (2) was loaded into a dialysis bag and placed in a TrisBuffer-10% sucrose solution for replacement to remove residual ethanol, unassembled lipids, and other components. Dialysis was performed for 24 hours at room temperature in the dark with magnetic stirring (the dialysis solution was changed every 12 hours).
[0290] (4) Concentration:
[0291] The product from step (3) was centrifuged and concentrated 5 times to obtain the sample to be tested.
[0292] (5) Particle size test
[0293] The particle size of some samples was measured using a Malvern Panalytical Zetasizer Pro instrument, and the particle size data are shown in Table 2.

[0295] sample Particle size (nM) I-29 183 I-39 220 SM-102 (Control) 210
[0296] In one embodiment, the apparatus for assessing cytotoxicity includes:
[0297] Cell line: HEK-293 cells (Procell, CL-0001)
[0298] Culture medium: DMEM (Invitrogen) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum.
[0299] Screening method: 96-well cell culture plate
[0300] Detection (readout): Using the CyQUANT cytotoxicity assay kit. TMThe LDHCytotoxicityAssayKit (Invitrogen, C20300) converts lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in cell culture supernatant into a red formazan product via a coupled enzymatic reaction. This product can be measured spectrophotometrically at 490 nm. The level of formazan formation is directly proportional to the amount of LDH released into the culture medium, thereby assessing the degree of cytotoxicity.
[0301] The steps involved in cytotoxicity assessment include:
[0302] 1. On the first day, HEK293 cells were seeded at 100,000 cells / ml into 96-well plates, 0.1 ml per well, and cultured overnight at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator to allow the cells to adhere.
[0303] 2. On the second day, the prepared blank LNP lipid nanoparticles were diluted to three concentrations (62.5 μg / ml, 125 μg / ml, and 250 μg / ml) and added to the cells, 10 μL per well, with 3 wells containing cells for each concentration. For the spontaneous LDH release control wells, 10 μL of sterile water was added, with a total of 3 wells containing cells. The maximum LDH release control wells were left untreated. The 96-well cell culture plates were incubated overnight at 37°C with 5% CO2.
[0304] 3. On the third day, remove the 96-well plate from the incubator and add 10 μL of cell lysis buffer to the large LDH release control well, adding cells to a total of 3 wells. Incubate again at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 45 minutes. After this time, remove the 96-well plate and transfer 50 μL of cell culture supernatant from each well to a new 96-well plate. Add 50 μL of reaction mixture to each well, mix well, and incubate at room temperature in the dark for 30 minutes. Then, add 50 μL of stop solution to each well and immediately measure the absorbance at 490 nm and 680 nm (Varioskan LUX multi-functional microplate reader, Thermo, VLBL00D1). Subtract the 680 nm absorbance value (background) from the 490 nm absorbance. Calculate cytotoxicity using the following formula:
[0305]
[0306] Figure 1 This study aimed to measure the effects of three different types of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) on cellular lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release. LDH release is commonly used to evaluate cell membrane damage and cytotoxicity; therefore, the results of this experiment can reflect the cytotoxic effects of different concentrations of LNPs. Experimental groups: The figure shows three different types of LNPs—I-29, I-39, and SM-102. In the legend, I-29 is labeled blue, I-39 is orange, and SM-102 is gray.
[0307] The experiment used three different concentrations of LNP: 62.5 μg / mL, 125 μg / mL, and 250 μg / mL. The percentage change in LDH release was measured at each concentration. The percentage data shown in the figure indicate the LDH release level of different LNPs at each concentration. All LDH release values were negative (e.g., -7.51%, -4.01%, etc.), which generally indicates a reduction (inhibition) in LDH release. Lower values indicate a smaller effect on LDH release, or lower cytotoxicity.
[0308] All experimental groups showed negative LDH release values at all concentrations, indicating that these LNPs had little or no significant effect on LDH release in cells, suggesting low cytotoxicity. The three LNPs (I-29, I-39, and SM-102) showed slightly different effects on LDH release at different concentrations, but the overall differences were small. This may indicate that the cytotoxicity of these LNPs was not significantly different. Furthermore, the negative values of LDH release did not change much with increasing concentration (from 62.5 μg / mL to 250 μg / mL), indicating that these LNPs did not significantly increase cytotoxicity within the measured concentration range.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
