AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies struggle to effectively prevent nucleic acids from being degraded by enzymes in vivo and to deliver them to target cells, especially due to their negative charge and large molecular weight, which result in low delivery efficiency.
A novel ionizable lipid compound was synthesized by introducing a pyrazole ring structure into the head of the ionizable lipid and adding ester or branched ester groups to the terminal hydrocarbon chain to form lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) with excellent cell delivery efficiency. Phospholipids, cholesterol and PEG-lipids were then combined to stabilize and disperse nucleic acids.
This improved the delivery and encapsulation efficiency of nucleic acids, enhancing the in vivo stability and therapeutic efficacy of nucleic acid therapeutic agents.
