Description

[0001] ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT A drug delivery system for increased endosomal escape Specification The present invention relates to a drug delivery liposome formulation to increase escape from endosomes within cells and to improve drug delivery to cells and tissues as well as enhance the subsequent release of the delivered drug within such cells and tissues. The lipid bilayer of the liposome comprises an encapsulating agent, a fusogenic agent, and an acid-cleavable PEGylated lipid. The liposome encapsulates a therapeutic agent, such as a nucleic acid (RNA; DNA), a peptide, a protein, a small molecule, or a non-lipinski molecule. The lipid bilayer may comprise further helper lipids for enhancing endosomal escape or increasing system stability, such as cholesterol, solasodine, ceramide, or diosgenin. Background of the invention The biggest challenge for the delivery of macromolecular therapeutics "cargos" in general, such as mRNA, is to target them to the correct cells and, once endocytosed, let them cross the endosomal membrane in a process called "endosomal escape". Indeed, only a small fraction of exogenous macromolecules can escape from endosomes into the cytosol where they can exert their activity. As a consequence, the efficiency of cargo delivery and importantly the desired cargo effect is usually quite low. In recent years, several types of RNA have emerged as potentially powerful therapeutics to inhibit gene expression, e.g. siRNA, to express proteins, e.g. mRNA, or for gene editing (e.g. CRISPR / Cas9 system). The plasma membrane of cells is a biological barrier that prevents access of macromolecules, especially RNAs, into the cell’s interior as cell defense mechanism. Consequently, numerous delivery systems have focused on facilitating the transport of molecular cargos across this membrane. In particular, eukaryotic cells internalize extracellularly administered cargos by endocytosis. This can be mediated by specific cell surface interactions, or simply involve non-specific engulfment of molecules present in the extracellular fluid. Upon internalization, cargos are sequestered within membrane-bound endosomes. Through fusion and fission events, endosomes exchange some of their luminal content, and cargos can subsequently distribute throughout a complex endosomal pathway that includes early endosomes, recycling endosomes, multivesicular bodies, late endosomes, and lysosomes. Cargos trapped in this pathway may either be recycled to the cell surface or undergo degradation by exposure to lysosomal enzymes. Notably, while conceptually in the cell, endosomally-trapped cargos do not have access to the cytosol, i.e. the space between cytoplasmic organelles such as the nucleus. Thus, delivery systems that simply promote endocytosis of cargos but not the crossing of the endosomal membranes are not sufficient to permit successful cytosolic penetration. Instead, cargos have to cross ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT the membrane of endosomes. Therefore, delivery remains a membrane translocation challenge and some of the issues previously described in the context of crossing the plasma membrane apply. Yet, the endosomal pathway includes membrane systems that are different from the plasma membrane. Consequently, the mechanisms by which translocation is mediated, the efficiencies with which this is achieved, and the cellular responses that accompany delivery may all be distinct. The idea of promoting endosomal escape so as to increase cytosolic delivery has been pursued for several decades. The ability to cross the endosomal membrane for successful delivery into the cytosol of target cells is a major challenge also for RNA-based therapeutics. It has been shown that only 1 % or less of endocytosed RNA therapeutics escape the endosome. Therefore, it is very difficult to experimentally investigate where and how this small quantity of RNA escapes from endosomes. Previous research tried to solve the problem posed by low endosomal escape by administering therapeutic RNA at higher doses, in order to achieve the desired effect; however, this causes side effects such as cytotoxicity and innate immune system activation. A major step forward was the development of lipid nanoparticles (LNP) to deliver siRNA and mRNA. LNPs are not liposomes because they do not have a lipid bilayer only but have an amorphous lipid core matrix, and thus are not designed to fuse with cellular membranes as membrane vesicles and organelles can fuse. However, also this delivery vehicle suffers from the problem of low escape efficacy and cytotoxicity. Therefore, there is still a need for new and efficient delivery systems to specifically increase crossing of endosomal membranes by macromolecule drugs. It is the objective of the present invention to provide a liposomal drug delivery system for therapeutic agents inducing an increased endosomal escape, and thus an increased delivery of the therapeutic agent in the cell cytosol. The objective of the present invention is solved by the teaching of the independent claims. Further advantageous features, aspects and details of the invention are evident from the dependent claims, the description, the figures, and the examples of the present application. Summary of the invention The present invention relates to a drug delivery liposome formulation to increase escape from endosomes within cells and to improve drug delivery to cells and tissues as well as enhance the subsequent release of the delivered drug within such cells and tissues. The lipid bilayer of the liposome comprises an encapsulating agent, a fusogenic agent, and an acid-cleavable PEGylated lipid. The liposome encapsulates a therapeutic agent, such as a nucleic acid (RNA; DNA), a peptide, a protein, a small ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT molecule, a non-lipinski molecule or another type of molecule. The lipid bilayer may further comprise helper lipids enhancing endosomal escape or increasing system stability, such as cholesterol, solasodine, ceramide, or diosgenin. The inventors have surprisingly found that, when transfecting Hela cells with siRNA against eGFP delivered by a liposome composition, the combination of a fusogenic agent such as LBPA with an acid- cleavable PEG-lipid in said composition shows an unexpected synergetic effect on eGFP downregulation (Figure 3c). Indeed, the eGFP downregulation reached by liposomes comprising both components amount to much more than the sum of the effects reached by the liposomes comprising only one of the two components. This effect is even more surprising as introduction of LBPA as fusogenic agent in MC3-based lipid nanoparticles (LNP) does not show a comparable improved effect on drug delivery and activity, such as siRNA mediated GFP downregulation. It is well known that lipid nanoparticles differ from liposomes for having an amorphous core structure made up of lipids, whereas liposomes in contrast have an aqueous core surrounded by one or multiple lipid bilayers. Moreover, this effect even more surprisingly when considering that prior art (Matsuo et al., 2004, Role of LBPA and Alix in multivesicular liposome formation and endosome organization. Science, New Series, 303, 5657, 531-534) shows that LBPA drives formation of membrane invaginations within acidic liposomes, thus stimulating MVL formation, and controls inward fission process by transient interaction between LBPA membranes and Alix. Remarkably, a similar effect to using LBPA as fusogenic agent can be obtained by using the compounds MGDG, PLPE (Figure 12 f-j), IsostA, GMO, POPE (eGFP- knock down efficiency by siRNA- liposomes, Figure 9b) , NPPE, MO, OIA, PalmA (Table 11), and with the isoforms Hemi-LBPA, 3,3'- R,R, 2,2'-S,S-C18:0, 2,2’-S,S-C12:0, 3,3'-S,S, and 3,3'-R,S (liposome-siRNA-mediated GFP downregulation Figure 7d).

Gold nanoparticles (10 nm) used for image alignment can be seen as electron-dense dots attached to some of the vesicles.

The image shows vesicles that are folded over or with a donut shape, as the spherical vesicles collapse during the embedding due to their aqueous core. Most of the vesicles are individual, while some are in contact with each other. Their size is between 50 and 300 nm along their longest axis. (c) Size distribution of extruded liposomes by dynamic light scattering (n = 6, mean ± SEM). (d) siRNA encapsulation in extruded liposomes, analyzed by Ribogreen assay (n = 12, mean ± SEM).

Figure 10 Shows (a) phenotypic comparison of siRNA-liposome treatment with treatment with the endosomal disruptive agent L-leucine methyl ester (LLOMe). HeLa cells were transfected with GFP-tagged galectin-8 by BacMam virus. Endosomal disruption is characterized by appearance of aggregated galectin-8 foci as seen for LLOME treatment, which are not visible upon liposome treatment (scale bar 20 µm). Untreated cells show a low background level of GFP fluorescence, cells treated with liposomes LP1 show the same background level as the untreated cells with a few cells exhibiting diffuse GFP fluorescence in cytosol and nuclei above background level (top row). Cell location is visualized by staining with DAPI and CMB (bottom row). (b) Phenotypic comparison of siRNA-liposome treatment with treatment with siRNA lipoplexes. HeLa cells were treated with A647-labeled siRNA complexed with lipofectamine 2000, resulting in endosomal bursting events (cells with release events are marked with arrows) (top row). Cells treated with A647-labeled siRNA in liposomes show a ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT vesicular pattern on the same timescale (bottom row), indicating that endosomes are not ruptured by this more gentle treatment. Background GFP fluorescence was used to visualize cellular position (scale bar 10 µm), shown in the left panel of both rows.

(h) Quantification of toxicity of mRNA-liposome formulations showed in (f, g). (n = 2, mean ± SEM). This example shows that different compositions of the invention containing different compounds as fusogenic agents or compounds (c) of the composition of the invention are effective for mRNA delivery with the same or increased effect compared to composition LP1. Figure 13 Shows semi-automated production of liposomes with NanoAssemblr microfluidic system.

Top row shows DAPI stained nuclei and bottom row shows GFP stained with an Alexa647-labeled GFP antibody. No GFP signal can be detected in untreated cells and in cells that were treated with protein only, not mixed with liposomes. Cells treated with GFP protein-containing liposomes show GFP fluorescence. Cells treated with liposomes containing (-30)GFP protein show a nuclear stain and a vesicular pattern, while cells treated with liposomes containing (-7)GFP protein show nuclear and cytosolic signal. Scalebar 20 µm.

This example shows that compositions of the invention can be used to deliver mRNA irrespective of the PEG chain length. The eGFP mRNA mediated expression tested was highest for PEG lipid PEG5000-orthoester-C18 in composition LP1 and for PEG2000-orthoester-C18 in the composition of this invention without cholesterol. The composition containing DOPE (DOTAP:DOPE:labile PEG lipid = 45:45:10) is not very effective for mRNA delivery at any PEG chain length. Thus, it is preferred that a composition of the invention that comprises mRNA preferably does not contain the combination DOTAP (as component d) and DOPE (as component e) but does contain cholesterol as component e. Detailed description of the invention The present invention relates to a drug delivery liposome formulation to increase escape from endosomes within cells and to improve drug delivery to cells and tissues as well as enhance the subsequent release of the delivered drug within such cells and tissues. The lipid bilayer of the liposome comprises an encapsulating agent, a fusogenic lipid agent for endosomal escape, and an acid-labile PEG lipid for specific activation inside the endosomal system. The liposome-based drug delivery system disclosed herein is structurally and compositionally different from current LNP-based systems. The liposome according to the present invention allows a combination of functions using a modular and bioinspired approach, and can fuse with endosomal membranes. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT The encapsulating lipid or agent has the function of interacting with the negatively charged endosomal membrane as well as binding negatively charged macromolecules such as oligonucleotides. The liposome-based delivery system disclosed herein allows specific activation by acidification: the PEG coat / PEG-lipid conjugate around liposomes is in a non-active state at pH 7. Under these conditions, the PEG coat also acts as a shield prior to acidification. The PEG is attached to a lipid anchor by an acid-labile linker that breaks between pH 5 and 6. The acid-cleavable PEGylated lipid increases the hydrophilicity of the liposome and provides a steric barrier against opsonisation (shield effect), whereas the adverse steric hindrance of PEG in regard to cellular uptake and subsequent endosomal escape is circumvented by cleavage of the PEG under acidic conditions within the endosomes. Thus, the present invention provides in one embodiment a drug delivery system comprising a liposome having (a) a lipid bilayer enclosing an aqueous volume, wherein the lipid bilayer comprises i) between 30 and 75 mol percent of at least one encapsulating agent; ii) between 1 and 20 mol percent of an acid-cleavable polyethylene glycol conjugated lipid; iii) between 15 and 45 mol percent of at least one fusogenic agent, and (b) a therapeutic agent or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, encapsulated within the aqueous volume, wherein the encapsulating agent is a cationic lipid and / or a lipidated polypeptide; and wherein the liposome has a Z-Average diameter size range comprised between 20 nm and 200 nm as determined by dynamic light scattering. As used herein the term “about” in the context of a numerical value refers to said value + / - 5 % of said value, most preferably it refers to exactly said value. As used herein, the term “liposome” is meant to refer to lipid molecules assembled in a spherical configuration encapsulating an interior aqueous volume that is segregated from an aqueous exterior. Liposomes are vesicles that possess at least one lipid bilayer. Liposomes are typically used as carriers for drug / therapeutic delivery in the context of pharmaceutical development. The liposomes described in the invention are designed using a bio-inspired approach, i.e. work by fusing the lipid bilayer with a cellular membrane and repositioning its lipid structure to deliver a therapeutic agent, drug or active pharmaceutical ingredient. As such, the liposomes are structurally different from the LNPs that contain an amorphous lipid-containing core and lack lipids compatible with functionally interacting with the cellular (endosomal) membranes. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT An "aqueous volume" is used herein interchangeably with "aqueous core" or with "aqueous phase" or with "aqueous compartment" or with "aqueous lumen" or with "aqueous pocket". As used herein, the term “lipid” is meant to refer to a group of organic compounds characterized by being insoluble in water, but soluble in many organic solvents. Lipid molecules are amphiphilic meaning that they have a hydrophilic or polar end and a hydrophobic or nonpolar end. The shape and amphipathic nature of the lipid molecules cause them to organize spontaneously into structures such as bilayers, and micelles in aqueous environments. Lipid molecules are usually divided into at least three classes: (1) “simple lipids,” which include fats and oils as well as waxes; (2) “compound lipids,” which include phospholipids and glycolipids; and (3) “derived lipids” such as steroids. In an aspect, the invention provides a composition comprising (a) a therapeutic agent or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; (b) a PEG-monoorthoester-lipid; (c) an amphiphilic lipid; (d) a cationic lipid and / or a beta-alanyl-prolyl-cysteine methyl ester; and optionally (e) a steroid and / or a ceramide and / or DOPE.

"Liposome size" ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT As used herein, "size" or "mean size" in the context of liposome compositions refers to the mean diameter measured as Z-average by DLS of a liposome. The Z-average particle diameter of a liposome is a value measured by a dynamic light scattering method. "Z average" is defined as the intensity weighted mean hydrodynamic size of the ensemble collection of particles measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS). As defined by Malvern Panalytical Ltd., the Z average is derived from a Cumulants analysis of the measured correlation curve, wherein a single particle size is assumed and a single exponential fit is applied to the autocorrelation function. The sizes of the liposomes in the liposome delivery system of the present invention are not specifically restricted, but it is preferable that the Z-Average diameter size range is comprised between 20 nm and 200 nm as determined by dynamic light scattering.

As used herein, the "polydispersity index" is a ratio that describes the homogeneity of the particle size distribution of a system, which is derived from the dynamic light scattering correlation data. It can assume values between 0 and 1. A small value, e.g., less than 0.3, indicates a narrow particle size distribution. As used herein, the "zeta potential" is the electrokinetic potential of a lipid, e.g., in a liposome composition. As used herein, a "lipid component" is that component of a "liposome composition" that includes one or more lipids. For example, the lipid component may include one or more cationic / ionizable, PEGylated, structural, or other lipids, such as phospholipids. The lipid components of the inventive liposome delivery system compositions developed and tested in the present invention are listed in Tables 1 - 12. The lipid components of the inventive liposome delivery system are a fusogenic agent, an encapsulating agent or therapeutic encapsulating agent, a labile PEG lipid, optionally, a helper or enhancer lipid. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT "Encapsulating agent" The wording "encapsulating agent" refers to a compound able to interact and bind a therapeutic agent of interest, so that when the encapsulating agent is present in the lipid bilayer enclosing an aqueous volume of a liposome composition, the therapeutic agent is encapsulated within the aqueous volume of said liposome. However, the therapeutic agent need not necessarily be encapsulated in the compositon of the invention, such as in a liposome composition of the invention, but the therapeutic agent may also be associated with the composition of the invention and / or its components in another way. This includes the therapeutic agent being complexed or associated with or bound or attached or adsorped to or integrated into the composition of the invention. An encapsulating agent also refers to a molecule acting as trapping agent forming a complex with the drug (ie therapeutic agent) PD740 (C45H82N4O6S2) is a lipidated tripeptide analogue. PD740 is able to bind the therapeutic agent, such as RNA, probably by an electrostatic interaction due to the pKa of PD740. The inventive liposome composition may also include one or more cationic and / or ionizable lipids (e.g., lipids that may have a positive or partial positive charge at physiological pH) as "encapsulating agent" in addition to the other liposome components listed elsewhere. As used herein, the term “cationic lipid” or "cationic agent" is meant to refer to a lipid, having a positively charged head group and one or two hydrocarbon chains. Liposome compositions with the encapsulating agents PD740, DOTAP, DOTMA, DOMA showed highest siRNA mediated downregulation efficiency in HeLa cells. Liposome compositions with the cationic lipid EPC 18:1 as encapsulating agent showed intermediate siRNA mediated downregulation efficiency in HeLa cells. Liposome compositions with the encapsulating agents TTAB, CTAB, 16-BAC, SA, PD739, Gl67, MVL5, TAP 18:0 showed no siRNA mediated downregulation in Hela cells. As used herein, the term “ionizable lipid” is meant to refer to a lipid, e.g., cationic lipid, having at least one protonatable or deprotonatable group, such that the lipid is positively charged at a pH at or below physiological pH (e.g., pH 7.4), and neutral at a second pH, preferably at or above physiological pH. It will be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art that the addition or removal of protons as a function of pH is an equilibrium process, and that the reference to a charged or a neutral lipid refers to the nature of the predominant species and does not require that all of the lipid be present in the charged or neutral form. Generally, ionizable lipids have a pKa of the protonatable group in the range of about 4 to about 7. Preferred ionizable lipids are 3ß-[N-(N',N'- dimethylaminoethane)-carbamoyl]cholesterol hydrochloride, N-(4-carboxybenzyl)-N,N-dimethyl- ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT 2,3-bis(oleoyloxy)propan-1-aminium, 1,2-distearoyl-3-dimethylammonium-propane, 1,2- dipalmitoyl-3-dimethylammonium-propane, 1,2-dimyristoyl-3-dimethylammonium-propane, 1,2- dioleoyl-3-dimethylammonium-propane (DODAP), 1,2-dioleyloxy-3-dimethylaminopropane (DODMA), 6-((2-hexyldecanoyl)oxy)-N-(6-((2-hexyldecanoyl)oxy)hexyl)-N-(4- hydroxybutyl)hexan-1-aminium, YSK05, Dlin-DMA, DLin-KC2-DMA, DLin-MC3-DMA (MC3), C12-200, SM-102, ALC-0315, Lipid 5.

"Labile PEG-lipids" The lipid component of a liposome composition as disclosed herein may include one or more labile PEG or labile PEG-modified lipids. A "pH-labile PEG-lipid" or "acid-labile PEG-lipid" refers to an "acid-cleavable PEG-lipid", i.e. a lipid attached to a PEG by a pH-sensitive acid-labile linkage, such as an orthoester or an hydrazone, (Fang Y et al., Cleavable PEGylation: a strategy for overcoming the "PEG dilemma" in efficient drug delivery. Drug Deliv. 2017;24(sup1):22-3), that breaks at pH between 5 and 6. A "labile linkage" refers to a covalent bond that is capable of being selectively broken. Consequently, the labile bond may be broken in the presence of other covalent bonds in the liposome without the breakage of other covalent bonds eventually present. "pH-labile linkage " or "pH- sensitive linkage" refers to a linkage or bond the can be selective broken under acidic conditions (pH < 7). This means that a pH-labile bond may be broken under acidic conditions in the presence of other covalent bonds without their breakage. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT A labile PEG-lipid forms a PEG coat around the liposomes acting as a shield at neutral pH, i.e. pH around 7. As used herein, a "PEG lipid" or "PEGylated lipid" refers to a lipid comprising a polyethylene glycol component. In other words, the acid-cleavable PEGylated lipid increases the hydrophilicity of the liposome and provides a steric barrier against opsonisation (shield effect), whereas the endosomal escape after cellular uptake is allowed by the activating cleavage of the PEG in the acidic conditions within endosomes. Particularly suitable acid-labile linkages have been described in the prior art and include orthoester linkages, hydrazone linkages, acetal linkages, vinyl ether linkages, and imine linkages (Fang Y et al., 2017). pH-sensitive PEG lipids containing orthoester linkers have been described by Masson C. et al., 2004, pH-sensitive PEG lipids containing orthoester linkers: new potential tools for nonviral gene delivery, J. Controlled Release, (99)3, 423-434. PEG lipids containing orthoester linkers provide a useful mechanism for pH dependent PEG modification, e.g. shedding of PEG. Thus, the composition of the invention suitably comprises a PEG-monoorthoester-lipid. In one embodiment an ester bond of the PEG-monoorthoester-lipid hydrolyses at a pH of 6 or less, preferably wherein said orthoester bond breaks at a pH of from pH 5 to pH 6. An embodiment of the present invention discloses a drug delivery system as described herein, wherein the acid-cleavable polyethylene glycol conjugated lipid is an acid-cleavable polyethylene glycol conjugated with a C12-C20 alkyl, or with a C12-C20 acyl, or with a mono-C12-C20 acylglycerol, or with a di-C12-C20 acylglycerol, preferably an acid-cleavable polyethylene glycol conjugated with a mono-C12-C20 alkyl or a mono-C12-C20 acyl. In one embodiment, the PEG-monoorthoester-lipid of the composition described herein comprises a polyethylene glycol conjugated with a C12-C20 alkyl, or with a C12-C20 acyl, or with a mono-C12-C20 acylglycerol, or with a di-C12-C20 acylglycerol, or wherein said PEG-monoorthoester lipid has the following structure: wherein n is an integer between 35 and 120 and wherein m is an integer between 10 and 27; and preferably wherein n is an integer between 40 and 110 and m is an integer of between 15 and 23. In one embodiment, the PEG-monoorthoester-lipid of the composition described herein comprises a polyethylene glycol conjugated with a C12-C20 alkyl, or with a C12-C20 acyl, or with a mono-C12-C20 acylglycerol, or with a di-C12-C20 acylglycerol, or wherein said PEG-monoorthoester lipid has the following structure: ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT wherein n is an integer between 20 and 200 and wherein m is an integer between 10 and 27; and preferably wherein n is an integer between 40 and 140.

Area and instruments were cleaned with RNase zap (ThermoFisher Scientific, AM9780) repeatedly and regularly. RNase free plasticware was used (Eppendorf tubes, Falcon tubes, tips). All pipetting of compound solutions was done with RNase free filtered tips (ART tips, ThermoFisher Scientific) and Gilson Pipetman®pipettes. Glassware was made RNase free by heating to 220 °C for 2h. Lids for vials were made RNase free with RNase zap and subsequently washed with RNase free water and EtOH. RNA quantification RNA concentration was quantified by UV absorption at 260 nm using a NanoDrop instrument. Compound aliquoting and solvent selection Compounds were weighed into RNase-free glass vials (either 4 ml (Supelco 27138, screw top with solid green melamine cap with PTFE liner) or 1.5 ml (Certified CD™ Vial (Center Draining) Kit, 9 mm thread with cap / septa, Sigma Aldrich, 29307-U)) and dissolved in a suitable solvent as mentioned below. Compound Solvent 2,2’-LBPA Chloroform, dried over K2CO3 (see handling of 2,2’-LBPA) labile PEG lipid CD3CN 16:0 BMP, 14:0 BMP MeOH NAPE MeOH / CHCl3(2.5:1) all other compounds Chloroform Compound concentration was verified with quantitative NMR on a Bruker Avance III using ERETIC method (Akoka, Barantin and Trierweiler, 1999. Concentration Measurement by Proton NMR Using the ERETIC Method’, Analytical Chemistry, 71(13), pp.2554–2557) against a reference solution of DMTP (Standard for quantitative NMR, TraceCERT®, Merck, 07038). Handling labile PEG lipid PEG2000-orthoester-C18 PEG2000-orthoester-C18 is not stable in chloroform. Deuterated acetonitrile was used as the solvent of choice to allow monitoring of the stability of aliquots over a longer time and quantification of compound concentration by quantitative NMR on a Bruker Avance III using ERETIC method (Akoka, Barantin and Trierweiler, 1999) against a reference solution of DMTP (Standard for quantitative NMR, TraceCERT®, Merck, 07038). Glassware and commonly used lab equipment used ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT for handling PEG2000-orthoester-C18 was thoroughly cleaned beforehand to avoid contamination with acids. The compound was handled at temperatures below 30 °C, including a lowered water bath temperature for solvent evaporation. Handling 2,2’-LBPA Isomerization of 2,2’- isomer to 3,3’ is increased under acidic conditions. Therefore, chloroform used for aliquotation of 2,2’-LBPA was pretreated with K2CO3 (0.1 g / ml) for 1 h to remove residual HCl. Verification of correct isomer was performed using a phospholipase digestion assay and detection by quantitative TLC (Kobayashi et al., 2002. Separation and characterization of late endosomal membrane domains, The Journal of Biological Chemistry, 277(35), 32157–32164). Solvents used during purification were precooled on ice to avoid isomerization during the purification process. Evaporation of solvents was done at 35°C maximum. Example 1 – Liposome formation with siRNA using extrusion or sonication Liposomes (lipid vesicles) are formed when thin lipid films or lipid cakes are hydrated and stacks of liquid crystalline bilayers become fluid and swell. The hydrated lipid sheets detach during agitation and self-close to form large, multilamellar vesicles (LMV) which prevents interaction of water with the hydrocarbon core of the bilayer at the edges. Once these particles have formed, they are subjected to downsizing, i.e. size reduction, by sonication, wherein the energy input is in the form of sonic energy, or by extrusion, wherein the energy input is in the form of mechanical energy. Individual lipid components were dissolved in suitable solvents as specified in Table 15. siRNA was dissolved in a suitable buffer and its concentration was determined by UV absorption at 260 nm using a NanoDrop instrument. The following protocol has actual amounts for preparation of 500 µl of liposome solution of composition LP1 (DOTAP:Chol:LBPA:labile PEG lipid= 50:25:20:5) at an siRNA concentration of 2 µM in 5% glucose solution (w / w) with anti eGFP siRNA (Sigma Aldrich, custom synthesis). Individual components such as buffer, concentrations, total volume as well as the drug binding agent, helper lipid, fusogenic agent, PEG lipid, siRNA and the stoichiometry of components can be varied. The preparation was prepared at a charge ratio N:P (amine to phosphate) of 20:1. The charge ratio N:P is calaculated as described in example 31. The siRNA in this example has 42 charges per molecule (number of phosphate groups), while the liposomes have one charge per DOTAP molecule included (number of amino groups). This charge ratio can be varied. Amounts need to be adjusted depending on compounds and siRNA used. Lipid film generation: Suitable volumes of DOTAP solution in CHCl3 (0.59 mg, 8.40*10^(-7) mol, 50 eq.) and cholesterol solution in CHCl3 (0.16 mg, 4.20*10^(-7) mol, 25 eq.) were added to an RNase-free glass vial (4 ml) (screw top vial with Thermoset cap with PTFE liner, Supelco 27138 (Merck)) and dried down under ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT nitrogen stream. The dried film was kept for 15 min at room temperature to ensure full evaporation. Suitable volume of a solution of LBPA in CHCl3 (0.27 mg, 3.36*10^(-7) mol, 20 eq.) was added to the existing film and dried down under nitrogen stream. The dried film was kept for 15 min at room temperature to ensure full evaporation. Suitable volume of labile PEG lipid in deuterated acetonitrile (0.20 µg, 8.40*10^(-8) mol, 5 eq.) was added to the existing film and dried down under nitrogen stream. The dried film was kept for 15 min at room temperature or dried under vacuum for 2 h to ensure full evaporation. Lipid film hydration: A 2 µM solution of anti eGFP siRNA (1 nmol, charges: 42 nmol) in sterile 5% glucose solution (w / w) in RNase free water (500 µl) was added to the dried film in a sterile environment. The sample was vortexed for 5 min and left to mature at room temperature for 30 min. Total lipid concentration after hydration is 3.36 mM. Downsizing can be achieved by 2 methods: Downsizing by extrusion: In a sterile environment, the sample was extruded with a disposable NanoSizer MINI extruder (T&T Scientific) containing a 100 nm membrane with 22 passes and collected from the receiving syringe. Alternatively, an Avanti Mini Extruder and 100 nm polycarbonate membranes (Sigma Aldrich, 610005) can be used. The sample was incubated at room temperature for 30 min before storing it at 4 °C. This method was used for final compositions. Downsizing by sonication: The sample was sonicated in a water bath sonicator (Bandelin Sonorex Super RK 102 H) for 45 min. The sample was incubated at room temperature for 30 min before storing it at 4 °C. This method is high throughput and was used for compositional screening. Quality control: Dynamic light scattering was used to check the presence of particles and analyse their size distribution (Example 6 for experimental details). The RiboGreen assay was used to assess siRNA concentration and siRNA encapsulation (Example 7 for experimental details). Example 2 – Liposome formation without cargo using extrusion or sonication Individual lipid components were dissolved in suitable solvents as specified in Table 15. The following protocol has actual amounts for preparation of 500 µl of liposome solution of composition LP1 (DOTAP:Chol:LBPA:labile PEG lipid= 50:25:20:5) in 5% glucose solution (w / w) at a total lipid concentration of 3.36 mM. Individual components such as buffer, concentrations, total volume as ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT well as encapsulating agent, helper lipid, fusogenic agent, PEG lipid and stoichiometry of components can be varied. Lipid film generation was performed as described in Example 1 using the same components, amounts, and experimental conditions. Lipid film hydration: A sterile 5% glucose solution (w / w) in RNase free water (500 µl) was added to the dried film in a sterile environment. The sample was vortexed for 5 min and left to mature at room temperature for 30 min. Downsizing was achieved by extrusion or sonication as described in Example 1 above. Quality control: Dynamic light scattering was used to check the presence of particles and analyse their size distribution (Example 6 for experimental details). The lipid concentration was quantified using a variation of Cholesterol / Cholesterol Ester-Glo™ Assay (Promega J3190) (Example 28 for experimental details). Example 3 - Liposome formation with mRNA Liposomes were prepared without cargo according to protocol from example 2. Prior to transfection they were mixed with mRNA at an N / P ratio of 6:1. This ratio can be varied; and similar transfection data were obtained with a N / P ratio of 3:1. The mRNA-containing liposomes were obtained mixing a liposome composition LP1 in 5% glucose solution (w / w) with CleanCap®EGFP mRNA (5moU) (Trilink, L-7201, 996 charges) at an N / P ratio of 6:1. To this aim, EGFP mRNA (10 µl, 100 µg / ml, PBS) was added to a solution of LP1 (10.92 µl, 3.36 mM total lipid) and mixed by pipetting up and down several times. The mixture was incubated for 15 min at room temperature and diluted to the concentration needed for transfection with 5% glucose solution, i.e. 12.5 µg / ml mRNA concentration. Quality control: Dynamic light scattering was used to analyse particle size distribution (Example 6 for experimental details). The RiboGreen assay was used to assess mRNA concentration and mRNA encapsulation (Example 7 for experimental details). Example 4 – Liposome formation with guide RNA Liposomes were prepared without cargo according to the protocol described in example 2. Prior to transfection they were mixed with guide RNA mix at an N / P ratio of 8.45:1. This ratio can be varied. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT A liposome solution of composition LP1 in 5% glucose (w / w) at a total lipid concentration of 3.36 mM was prepared as described in example 2 and mixed with GFP cr guide and tracr RNA at an N / P ratio of 8.45:1. The guide RNA mix was prepared by mixing GFP cr guide 1 (0.84 µl, 100 µM, 50 charges) and tracr RNA (0.84 µl, 100 µM, 50 charges) and diluting it to 30 µl total volume using 20 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 150 mM KCl. This mix was incubated for 15 min at 37 °C. Afterwards, 3.55 µl of this mix were mixed with LP1 solution (5 µl) by pipetting up and down and then incubated at room temperature for 30 min. It was then diluted with 5% glucose solution to the concentration needed for transfection, i.e.100 nM GFP cr guide RNA prior to transfection. Example 5 – Liposome formation with Cas9 RNP Liposomes were prepared without cargo according to the protocol described in example 2. Prior to transfection they were mixed with Cas9 protein / guide RNA complex at an N / P ratio of 9.10:1. This ratio can be varied. A liposome solution of composition LP1 in 5% glucose (w / w) at a total lipid concentration of 3.36 mM was mixed with Cas9 protein guide RNA ribonucleoprotein complex at an N / P ratio of 9.10:1. Cas9 protein guide RNA ribonucleoprotein complex was prepared by mixing GFP cr guide (0.84 µl, 100 µM, 50 negative charges), tracer RNA (0.84 µl, 100 µM, 50 negative charges) and Cas9 protein (4.29 µl, 3 mg / ml, 22 positive charges) diluting it to 30 µl total volume using 20 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 150 mM KCl. This mix was incubated for 15 min at 37 °C. Afterwards, 3.55 µl of this mix were mixed with LP1 solution (5 µl) by pipetting up and down and then incubated at room temperature for 30 min. It was then diluted to the concentration needed for transfection, i.e.100 nM GFP cr guide RNA prior to transfection. Example 6 – Liposome size analysis by dynamic light scattering Description of method: The liposome sample (3.36 mM, 1 µl) was diluted 1:150 in the initial "preparation" buffer (e.g.5% Glucose (w / w) in RNase free water) to a total lipid concentration around 20 µM and transferred to a micro UV cuvette (Brand®, BR759200). The sample was measured with the size program of a Malvern Zetasizer Nano ZS (laser 632.8 nm) at 25°C using 173° backscatter, automatic measurement settings and 120 s preequilibration time.3 repeat measurements were conducted for each sample. Data analysis: The size Z-average, (Z-Ave), which corresponds to the liposome diameter in nm, and polydispersity index (PDI) were calculated on the basis of the light scattering data by the Malvern Zetasizer software and averaged over 3 measurements. The size distribution based on intensity, volume and number was exported as an average of 3 measurements. Distributions based on number of particles are shown in Figures 2c, h, 5c, 12c and 13c. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Results: Size distribution of extruded siRNA- liposomes Dynamic light scattering analysis of extruded liposomes containing siRNA (prepared according to example 1) showed a narrow size distribution around 100 nm (Fig.2c). The average diameter Z-Ave was 121.3 ± 2.8 nm and the average polydispersity index was 0.123 ± 0.007 (n=6, error: SEM). siRNA-liposome size stability over time After storage at 4 °C for 9 months, and 1.6 and 2.4 years the size distribution of extruded liposomes containing siRNA (prepared according to example 1) was unchanged (Fig.2h), demonstrating high stability of the liposomal system. Size distribution of mRNA-liposomes Dynamic light scattering several hours after mixing of empty extruded liposomes with mRNA (prepared according to example 3) showed a slight shift of the size distribution towards larger sizes for extruded liposomes with mRNA compared to the same liposomes without mRNA (Fig.5c). Example 7 – RNA quantification with RiboGreen assay Description of method: The concentration and encapsulation efficiency of RNA was determined using the Quant-it™ RiboGreen RNA Assay Kit from Invitrogen™ (ThermoFisher Scientific, R11490). The assay was performed in a Nunc™ F96 MicroWell™ Black Polystyrene Plate (ThermoFisher Scientific, 237105). Each sample was assayed in triplicate both in the absence and in the presence of 0.5% Triton X. The individual samples were compared to a four-point standard curve of the same RNA with and without 0.5% Triton X. The standard curve for siRNA was recorded in the range between 10 and 50 nM, while the standard curve for mRNA was recorded in the range between 0.05 and 0.5 µg / ml. Specific example for analysis of liposomes containing 2 µM siRNA (prepared according to example 1): 3 replicates of the sample (1.5 µl) were diluted to 50 µl using Tris-HCl buffer (10 mM, 1 mM EDTA, pH 7.5), another 3 replicates were diluted to 45 µl with Tris-HCl buffer, and addition of 5 µl of a 10% triton solution in RNase free water. The standard curve samples were prepared from an siRNA aliquot with fitting volumes with the same procedure. The Quant-it™ RiboGreen RNA Reagent was warmed to room temperature and diluted 200-fold in Tris-HCl buffer. 50 µl of this solution were added to each well. The fluorescence intensity was measured using a Perkin Elmer Envision plate reader using a 492 nm excitation and a 535 nm emission filter. The gain was adjusted for each measurement. Data analysis: ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT The fluorescence intensity was plotted against the RNA concentration for the standard curves with and without triton and analyzed using the software R employing a weighted linear fit. The concentration (c(RNA)) and subsequently molar amount of RNA (n(RNA)) for each well was calculated based on the extracted slope and intercept of the relevant standard curve and averaged for each condition. RNA content compared to theoretical RNA content in was quantified as follows: RNA loss compared to theoretical content is calculated as follows: is the molar amount detected in the triton treated sample, which equals the total RNA content of the sample, and ntheoreticalis the theoretical molar amount of the triton treated sample, based on the input. Encapsulation is as follows: is the molar amount detected in the triton treated sample, which equals the total RNA content of the sample after liposome lysis, triton is the molar amount detected in the untreated sample, which equals the RNA content outside the liposomes. The molar concentration of the original sample (c(RNA)) was calculated by dividing the average molar amount per well of the triton treated the sample volume VSample (1.5 µl). This value was used as the concentration of the sample for subsequent transfections. Change in concentration between two measurements (e.g. at a later timepoint) in percentage is calculated as follows: "Measurement 1" is the original measurement, "measurement 2" is the one at a later timepoint. Results: siRNA encapsulation and content of extruded siRNA liposomes Ribogreen assay shows successful binding of siRNA and average encapsulation efficiency of 97.0 ± 0.83 % at charge ratio N / P 20:1 (positive / negative) for liposomes containing siRNA prepared by extrusion according to the protocol of example 1 (n=12, error: SEM) (Fig.2d). ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Average siRNA content loss due to extrusion for samples made according to the protocol in example 1 was 14.5 ± 2.21 % (n=12, error: SEM) (Fig.2e). siRNA encapsulation and content of extruded siRNA liposomes – stability over time siRNA encapsulation efficiency of extruded liposomes made according to example 1 was unchanged after 9 months, 1.6 and 2.4 years of storage at 4°C (Fig. 2i).Also, siRNA concentration of these samples was not reduced after prolonged storage, even after 2.4 years at 4°C. (Fig.2j). siRNA encapsulation of liposomes at different N / P ratios siRNA liposomes prepared at charge ratio N / P 5:1 showed an average encapsulation efficiency of 93%, which is close to full encapsulation that can be seen at N / P ratio 20:1 (Fig.2k). By extension any N / P ratio in between or above should also lead to high encapsulation. siRNA encapsulation and content of extruded mRNA liposomes For mRNA-liposomes made according to protocol in example 3 at charge ratio 6:1 (positive / negative) around 40% of total mRNA was encapsulated while the rest was detected on the outside of the liposomes (Fig.5a). Example 8 – Cryogenic electron microscopy (EM) Description of method: Grids preparation and plunge-freezing For cryo electron microscopy aquoeous samples are cooled to cryogenic temperatures to preserve the sample in the most native state in vitreous ice by plunge freezing. Samples are spread into a thin film across an EM grid before rapidly submerging it in a cryogen, e.g. liquid ethane. A Lacey Carbon Supported Copper Grid (200 mesh) was glow-discharged for 12 s before insertion in the chamber of a plunge freezer EM GP2EM (Leica). Anti eGFP siRNA containing liposomes of composition LP1 prepared according to the protocol detailed in example 1 were diluted to a total lipid concentration of 400 µM in 20 mM TRIS, 150 mM NaCl.3 μl of this sample and 1 μl of 10 nm of gold nanoparticles suspension (BBI Solutions, EM.GC10) were added to the grid just before blotting. The plunge- freezing parameters were set to 30 °C, 99% humidity. Blotting was done on the sample-side of the grid for 1.4 s, and immediately followed by plunging in liquid ethane at -180°C. Frozen grids were preserved in liquid nitrogen. Cryo-electron imaging Transmission Electron Microscopy was done on a Titan Halo 300 kV FEG-TEM (FEI, Hillsboro, Oregon, USA) equipped with a field emission gun and an energy filter BioQuantum Model 967 from Gatan (Gatan, Pleasanton, California, USA). The images were zero loss filtered with a slit width of 20 eV and taken on a Gatan K2 summit direct detector in the counted mode. The program ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT DigitalMicrograph (Gatan) was used to control the energy filter and the K2 detector. Images were taken with the program SerialEM (Mastronarde, D.N., Automated electron microscope tomography using robust prediction of specimen movements. J. Struct. Biol. (2005) 152, 36–51) at a resolution of 3710 x 3838 pixels at a magnification resulting in a pixel size of 0.31 nm. The beam intensity was set between 6 and 10 electrons per pixel per second and the overall dose per image was adjusted to the range 50 - 100 electrons per Square-Ångstrom. Instead of a single image, twenty sub frames were taken with frame times between 0.1 s and 0.25 s and aligned using K2 align software, which is based on the MotionCorr algorithm, to compensate for any drift. The sample was in a Gatan 626 Cryoholder, cooled by liquid nitrogen without counter-heating so that the final sample temperature was constant and always below -165 °C. Results: CryoEM imaging shows that liposomal structure is unilamellar and univesicular (Fig. 2a). This means that the liposomes are composed of a single membrane layer around an aqueous core, making it possible for them to fuse with other membranes such as the endosomal membrane. They are in a diameter size range around 100 nm, in accordance with the data obtained by dynamic light scattering (Fig.2c). Their morphology in solution is spherical. Example 9 – conventional electron microscopy Description of method: For siRNA-liposomes, a sample (0.5 µl) of extruded liposomes of composition LP1 containing anti eGFP siRNA (prepared according to protocol detailed in example 1) was diluted 10x with water and 5 µl of the solution were incubated for 3 min on a non-carbon coated and not glow-discharged, copper, square 400-mesh grid (Plano G2400C), coated with formvar film. For mRNA liposomes, a sample of liposomes of composition LP1 (prepared according to protocol detailed in example 2) (1 µl) was mixed mRNA solution (100 µg / ml, 1,83 µl) at charge ratio 3:1 and incubated for 15 min at room temperature (according to protocol detailed in example 3). The solution was diluted to 10 µl with 5% Glucose and incubated for 5 min at room temperature. 5 µl of the solution were incubated for 5 min on a non-carbon coated and not glow-discharged, copper, square 400-mesh grid (Plano G2400C), coated with formvar film. The grid was washed on 3 drops of water for 5 s per drop. For the first staining step, the grid was incubated on a drop of 1% sodium tungstate (Electron Microscopy Sciences 21400) in water for 2 min, followed by washing on 3 drops of water, 1 s per drop. For the second staining step, the grid was incubated with 0.1% uranyl formate (Electron Microscopy Sciences 22450) in 1.8% methyl cellulose (pH 4.5, Sigma Aldrich M6385) on 3 consecutive drops, on ice, for a total of 2 min. The grid was lifted from the last drop using a nichrome wire loop, excess uranyl formate / methyl cellulose solution was removed using a filter paper, and the grid was air dried at room temperature. The protocol was adapted from Asadi et al., 2017 (Asadi, J. et al. Enhanced imaging of lipid rich ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT nanoparticles embedded in methylcellulose films for transmission electron microscopy using mixtures of heavy metals. Micron 99, 40–48 (2017)). The grid was imaged at 13,000x magnification in a Tecnai T12 transmission electron microscope (FEI, now Thermo Fisher Scientific), operated at 100 kV and equipped with an axial 2k CCD camera (TVIPS) and EM-MENU software (TVIPS). Results: Size and morphology of siRNA containing liposomes Conventional electron microscopy (EM) imaging showed the size distribution and morphology of extruded liposomes containing siRNA in fixed state (Fig.2b). During the fixation in methyl cellulose liposomes collapse onto themselves which results in a folded or donut shape. This is in accordance with literature examples of particles containing an aqueous core. Their size distribution is in accordance with data in solution obtained by dynamic light scattering (Fig.2c). Size and morphology of mRNA containing liposomes Conventional EM imaging showed the size distribution and morphology of extruded liposomes containing mRNA at charge ratio 3:1 in fixed state (Fig.5b). EM grids were prepared directly after mixing mRNA and liposomes for 15 min (preparation of mRNA containing liposomes according to protocol described in example 3). Extruded liposomes with mRNA appear to be smaller than liposomes with siRNA when embedded in methyl cellulose (Comparison Figs. 2b and 5b, Figs. 2c and 5c). Example 10 – RNase degradation assay Description of method: A 4% (w / w) suspension of NuSieve GTG agarose (FMC Bioproducts (now Lonza), 50082) in Tris- borate-EDTA buffer (TBE, 89 mM TRIS base, 89 mM boric acid, 2 mM EDTA in RNAse free water (ThermoFisher Scientific, AM9938)) was prepared. After soaking for 15 min, it was heated in a microwave at 360 W for 1 min, then kept for 15 min in a 60 °C water bath. Ethidium bromide (1 µl) was added to 27 ml of this molten solution and it was cast into a gel cast with a comb. The gel was left to set at room temperature and covered with TBE buffer afterwards. Samples were prepared using anti eGFP siRNA (c= 1.85 µM, volume (V)= 7.5 µl) or siRNA- containing, extruded liposomes of composition LP1 made by the protocol detailed in example 1 (c (siRNA)= 1.73 uM, V= 7.5 µl). The siRNA or liposome solutions and RNase A (Sigma Aldrich, R6513) stock in TBE buffer (c=0.01 mg / ml) were incubated at 37 °C for 5 min. RNase A stock solution (V= 1 µl) was added to each sample to reach a final concentration 0.001 mg / ml and followed by addition of RNase inhibitor RNaseOUTTM(ThermoFisher Scientific, 10777019, 40 U / µl, V= 1.25 µl) after the indicated time of incubation (0-60 min, 9 time points) to stop the reaction. After treatment the samples were incubated for 2 min at 37 °C, then a 10% triton X solution (V= 1 µl) was added to each sample to lyse the liposomes. After 3 min incubation at room temperature, Orange G / bromophenol blue loading buffer (0.15% (w / v) Orange G, 0.03% (w / v) bromophenol blue in ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT glycerol / TBE buffer (3:2), V= 2 µl) was added and 10 µl of this solution was loaded into the gel pockets. The gel was run with 80 V for 20 min using an Amersham Pharmacia Biotech Electrophoresis Power Supply EPS 301. Imaging and data analysis: The gels were imaged using a Vilber Bio-Vision Gel Doc system with transillumination at 312 nm and an exposure of 440 ms. The images were analyzed with Fiji by creating an intensity plot for each lane with the gels submenu and calculating the area under the curve for the RNA band. The amount of RNA present in each sample relative to the starting point of the kinetic experiment was calculated by normalizing the area under the curve obtained to the one obtained for t= 0 min. Results: siRNA formulated in liposomes resulted in being protected from degradation by RNase A over time, in stark contrast to naked siRNA which was degraded within minutes at the same RNase concentration (Fig.2f, g). Example 11 – uptake of liposomes containing labeled siRNA in HeLa cells Description of method: HeLa cells stably expressing eGFP were obtained as described by Bramsen, J.B. et al. 2009 (Bramsen, J.B. et al., A large-scale chemical modification screen identifies design rules to generate siRNAs with high activity, high stability and low toxicity. Nucleic Acids Res.37, 2867–2881 (2009)). Liposomes containing Alexa 647 labeled anti eGFP siRNA made by the protocol described in example 1 were transfected in HeLa eGFP cells to assess their uptake. HeLa eGFP cells were cultured in DMEM media complemented with 10% FBS at 37 °C and 5% CO2 and seeded the day before the transfection into a black 384 well cell culture microplate (Greiner 781092) in DMEM medium with 10% FBS and 50 µg / ml gentamicin. The transfection mixes were prepared in a 96 well master plate: the liposomes were diluted to 12x the final siRNA concentration (i.e. 120 nM) in 5% glucose. Untreated control samples were prepared using only buffer. Directly before transfection, equal volume of DMEM containing 20% FBS was added to each transfection mix to have a concentration of siRNA of 6x the final concentration of the transfection and 10% FBS. 10 µl of this transfection mix was added to each well of the 384 well plate containing 50 µl of medium, resulting in a final concentration of 10 nM. Each condition was tested in quadruplicate. The plate was incubated at 37 °C and 5% CO2. After 5 h the plate was fixed with 3.7% formaldehyde in PBS for 15 min. After additional washing with PBS each well was stained with 6 µg / ml Hoechst 33342 and 0.5 µg / ml HCS CellMask™ Blue Stain (Invitrogen, H32720) in PBS containing 0.04% sodium azide. Every treatment was performed in quadruplicate. Imaging and data analysis: ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT The plate was imaged at 40x magnification on a Yokogawa CellVoyager CV7000 automated laser spinning disk microscope. 4 fields per well were imaged. Images were adjusted and exported with MotionTracking (http: / / motiontracking.mpi-cbg.de). Results: Alexa 647-labeled siRNA in liposomes is taken up by HeLa cells and shows a specific vesicular pattern as expected for uptake by endocytosis (Fig.3a). No Alexa 647 uptake can be seen in untreated cells. Example 12 – transfection of HeLa eGFP cells with siRNA containing liposomes Description of method: Liposomes made by the protocol described in example 1 containing anti eGFP siRNA or AF647 labeled anti eGFP siRNA were transfected in HeLa eGFP cells to assess downregulation efficiency. The following description is for a dose response experiment with concentration points taken at 10, 5, 2.5 and 1 nM. This can be adjusted to use different concentrations, more or less points if necessary. HeLa eGFP cells (obtained as described in Bramsen, J. B. et al. (2009)) were cultured in DMEM media (ThermoFisher Scientific, 31966) complemented with 10% FBS (Merck, S0615)at 37°C and 5% CO2 and seeded the day before the transfection into a black 384 well cell culture microplate (Greiner 781092) in DMEM medium with 10% FBS and 50 µg / ml gentamicin. The transfection mixes were prepared in a 96 well master plate: the liposomes were diluted to 10x the concentration of the highest concentration point (100 nM) in the "preparation" buffer (e.g. 5% glucose). Serial dilution was performed to obtain solutions at 10x concentration for the other concentration points. Untreated control samples were prepared using only buffer. Directly before transfection, equal volume of DMEM containing 20% FBS was added to each transfection mix to have a concentration of siRNA of 5x the final concentration of the transfection and 10% FBS. 10 µl of this transfection mix was added to each well of the 384 well plate containing 40 µl of medium. Each condition was tested in quadruplicate. The plate was incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2. After 5 h, the transfection mix was washed away by replacing the medium three times with fresh DMEM and aspirating to 25 µl with a Biotek EL406 washer. Afterwards, 25 µl of DMEM containing 20% FBS and 100 µg / ml gentamicin was added. The plate was further incubated for 72 h and then fixed with 3.7% formaldehyde in PBS for 15 min. After additional washing with PBS each well was stained with 1 µg / ml DAPI (Sigma Aldrich, D9542-5MG) and 0.25 µg / ml HCS CellMask™ Blue Stain (Invitrogen, H32720) in PBS containing 0.04% sodium azide. Every treatment was performed in quadruplicate. Imaging and data analysis: The plate was imaged at 10x magnification on a Perkin Elmer Operetta high throughput microplate imager or a Yokogawa CellVoyager CV7000 automated laser spinning disk microscope.9 fields per ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT well were imaged. The nuclei and cells were segmented based on the DAPI / CMB staining and the mean GFP intensity for each nucleus was recorded. The nuclei number in percentage was calculated as follows: The number of nuclei per image was summed up per well and then averaged per condition. This value was normalized to the value calculated in the same way from the untreated control wells. The GFP intensity in percentage was calculated as follows: Median of the mean GFP intensity per nucleus or per cell was calculated per image, averaged per well and averaged per condition. This value was normalized to the value calculated in the same way from the untreated control wells. The analysis was conducted using Perkin Elmer Harmony software or CellProfiler for segmentation and parameter extraction and Knime Analytics platform for calculation, averaging and normalization. The calculation for the single cell distribution plot of percentage GFP intensity was performed as follows: The mean GFP intensity per nucleus was normalized to the median value of GFP intensity per nucleus of the untreated condition. The percentage was rounded up to the next integer number for each nucleus. For each condition (treatment, concentration) the occurrence of nuclei for each GFP intensity value was counted per well and then averaged over the quadruplicate repeats. The difference in normalized GFP intensity and nuclei number for different N / P ratios was calculated as follows: The GFP intensity or nuclei number in percentage for a specific N / P ratio at a specific concentration was calculated as above. Then the value of N / P ratio 20:1 at this concentration was subtracted the initial value. EC50 / TC50 calculation EC50 and TC50 values for 4 and 10 concentration datasets were calculated by fitting a 4-parameter logistic equation to the GFP intensity and nuclei number normalized to untreated control in response to siRNA concentration respectively. Calculations were done using Knime Analytics platform. The lower limit was constrained to 100%, while the lower limit was left unconstraint for GFP intensity and set to 0 for Nuclei number. Fits were scored as non-applicable if the lower limit was estimated to be above 40% or below -10%. The therapeutic index is defined as the ratio between TC50 and EC50, as previously described in section "Therapeutic agents". Scoring Calculated based on result at dose 10 nM, if not stated otherwise. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Toxicity scoring: Score Nuclei number normalized to untreated - > 80% † 60-80% †† 40-60% ††† 20-40% †††† < 20% Effect scoring to distinguish between non-working preparations (following toxicity or no effect) and low-working preparations (knock down (KD) effect visible, but fitting not possible): Score (Normalized GFP intensity) / (Normalized Nuclei number) KD < 0.8 no KD > 0.8 Results: siRNA downregulation with liposomes The treatment of HeLa eGFP cells with 10 nM eGFP anti siRNA in LP1 liposomes caused 80% downregulation of eGFP intensity compared to untreated control, while treatment with the same concentration of naked siRNA showed no effect (Fig 3b). Dependence of siRNA downregulation efficiency of liposomes on both active agents To show that the functionality of the invention depends on the specific combination of the active agents as contained in the inventive liposome composition, i.e. on the combination of a fusogenic agent with an acid-cleavable PEG lipid, liposomes were prepared in which each of the active agents was replaced with a non-active form and compared with those comprising both active agents. The anti eGFP siRNA- liposomes were prepared according to the protocol in example 1. The non- fusogenic liposome sample was prepared by replacing the fusogenic agent LBPA in the composition LP1 with the non-fusogenic lipid DOPC. The non-acid cleavable sample was prepared by replacing the acid-cleavable PEG lipid in the composition LP1 with the non-acid cleavable PEG lipid DSPE- PEG2000. The downregulation of eGFP in HeLa eGFP cells transfected with formulations without active agents or comprising only one active agent was compared to the formulation containing both active agents (LP1). The downregulation effect was only successful if both active agents were present. Indeed compositions comprising only the non-fusogenic lipid or only the non-acid cleavable lipid as active agent did not show any eGFP downregulation (Fig.3c). These results show that both active agents in the liposomal system have a surprising synergistic effect on inducing endosomal escape and efficient siRNA delivery. Dose dependence of eGFP downregulation with siRNA-liposomes (four concentrations) ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Testing the effect of liposomes containing siRNA against eGFP made by the protocol detailed in example 1 at different siRNA concentrations (10, 5, 2.5 and 0.5 nM) showed that the downregulation effect was dose dependent (Fig.3d). A single cell analysis of distribution of mean GFP intensity per nucleus in the dose dependent experiment (Fig 3e) showed that the untreated control has a very wide distribution of mean eGFP intensities per nucleus. A clear, dose-dependent shift is visible with anti eGFP siRNA-liposome treatment, culminating in a narrow distribution around 20% of the median of the untreated condition at 10 nM dose. This indicates that GFP downregulation is achieved in the majority of treated cells. Dose dependence of siRNA downregulation with liposomes containing different LBPA isomers siRNA-LP1 liposomes containing one of the main isomer forms of LBPA, 2,2’-S,S and 3,3’-S,S, were prepared according to the protocol in Example 1. These liposome compositions showed same dose response in eGFP downregulation (Fig.3f) and same low toxicity response (Fig.3g). The EC50 for downregulation (determined from four point curve) was very similar: 2,2’-S,S-LBPA containing liposomes showed EC502.34 ± 0.18 nM, 3,3’-S,S-LBPA containing liposomes showed EC502.50 ± 0.35 nM. Effectiveness of delivery system does not depend on a specific LBPA isomer. Dose dependency of GFP downregulation with siRNA liposomes (10 concentrations) To explore the dose dependency of siRNA-mediated downregulation with liposomes of composition LP1 made by the protocol detailed in example 1 in greater detail, a dose response curve with 10 concentration points was explored. This allows for a more exact calculation of the effect (EC50) and toxic (TC50) concentration (Fig. 3h). By fitting a four-parameter log-logistics model, these values were calculated as being EC50: 0.93 nM, and TC50: 19.44 nM. Therefore, therapeutic index (TC50 / EC50): 21. Reproducibility of dose dependent siRNA mediated downregulation with liposomes siRNA mediated downregulation at four concentrations using liposomes of composition LP1 containing 2,2’-LBPA as fusogenic agent prepared according to the protocol detailed in example 1 was shown to be reproducible over a large number of repeated experiments (Fig. 3i). The toxicity profile was reproducible as well (Fig.3j). Effect of liposome storage on siRNA mediated downregulation. Extruded siRNA liposomes of composition LP1 prepared according to the protocol detailed in example 1 were tested for downregulation efficiency at four concentrations directly after formation as well as after 9 months, 1.6 and 2.4 years of storage at 4°C. The downregulation profile resulted in a similar curve showing that liposomes with siRNA are stable over years without losing efficiency of downregulation (Fig.3k). ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Stability of siRNA containing liposomes towards serum Transfection is often done in serum free conditions to increase success rates. In contrast, all the experiments herein were performed within serum presence to be closer to in vivo conditions. Therefore, to check the stability of siRNA liposomes towards serum exposure, LP1 liposomes prepared according to the protocol detailed in example 1 were pretreated with serum for 5 h at room temperature. Their dose-dependent siRNA downregulation and toxicity was compared with a sample of the same liposome batch that was not pretreated with serum (Fig. 3l). No difference in downregulation efficiency (eGFP intensity) or toxicity profile (number of nuclei) could be observed indicating that downregulation efficiency of siRNA in liposomes is stable towards prolonged serum exposition (Fig.3l). Example 13 – Variation of chemical composition of the identified siRNA delivery system Different compositional variations of anti eGFP siRNA-containing liposomes made by the protocol detailed in example 1 were prepared and tested for their downregulation efficiency and toxicity in HeLa eGFP cells at different siRNA concentrations according to experimental procedure described in example 12. In vitro parameters (size, stability, encapsulation and siRNA content) were analyzed for each liposome composition variation with the techniques detailed in examples 6 and 7. Results from the different compositions are detailed in the following paragraphs. 1. Stoichiometry variation The percentage of each compound in the composition LP1 was varied resulting in 20 different liposome composition variations. Each of these liposome compositions was tested at 4 siRNA concentrations (Table 2, Fig. 7b, only 10 nM siRNA dose shown). Effective compositions were identified by the GFP downregulation assay in HeLa eGFP cells as having the following percentage ranges for each component: DOTAP: 30-75% Cholesterol: 0-35% LBPA: 15-30% or 45% for cholesterol = 0% Labile PEG lipid: 1-10% 2. Variation of helper lipid The helper lipid cholesterol in formulation LP1 was replaced with similar compounds or delivery enhancers, which structures are shown in the section "Chemical Structures" (identified by the protocol detailed in example 25) generating 14 liposome composition variations. Each of these liposome variations was tested for knock down of eGFP in HeLa eGFP cells at 4 siRNA concentrations (table 3). The three compounds solasodine, ceramide, and diosgenin showed a similar effect as cholesterol in this composition (Fig.7c). ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT 3. LBPA isomer and isoform variation 6 LBPA isoforms and four structurally similar molecules were explored in the formulation LP1 (table 4). The resulting liposome composition variations were tested in HeLa eGFP cells at 4 siRNA concentrations each. Several LBPA isomers show a similar activity: in addition to 2,2’-S,S and 3,3’- S,S isomers (Fig.3f,g) five more isomers or isoforms were showing a similar effect (3,3’-R,S, 3,3’- R,R, 2,2’-S,S with 18:0 or 12:0 fatty acids and hemi-LBPA (3 fatty acids)) (Fig.7d). 4. Encapsulating agent variation PD740 was tested as encapsulating agent. PD740 (N-[3-(Hexadecan-1-sulfonylamino)propionyl]-4- (R)-(aminoethyl)-L -prolyl-S-farnesyl-L -cysteine methyl ester) has been first synthetized by Biel et al. 2006 as a single isomer (Biel et al. Synthesis and Evaluation of Acyl Protein Thioesterase 1 (APT1) Inhibitors. Chem. Eur. J. 2006, 12, 4121 - 4143). It was tested by Gilleron et al. for siRNA transfection and identified as a delivery enhancer (Gilleron, J. et al. Identification of siRNA delivery enhancers by a chemical library screen. Nucleic Acids Res. 2015, 43, 7984–8001). PD740 was custom synthetized to prepare the inventive liposomes, obtaining PD740 as mixture of isomers of different ratios, which all had the same effect, so that the particular isomer ratio has not influence on the liposome drug delivery efficiency. DOTAP in formulation LP1 was replaced with 12 different cationic agents or ionizable lipids, and the resulting liposome compositions were tested in HeLa cells at 4 siRNA concentrations (Table 5). One drug binding agent, PD740 showed increased activity at lower concentration (composition LP2 (see Table 1)) (Fig. 7e). Two other cationic lipids, DOMA and DOTMA, showed a similar activity profile as DOTAP (Fig.7e). Another cationic lipid, EPC 18:1, shows downregulation activity, but at a lower EC50. Variation of PD740 percentage As liposomes with PD740 were identified as being more active than those with DOTAP as a encapsulating agent in the same composition, different variations of LP2 composition were explored using varying percentages of PD740 and mixtures of PD740 and DOTAP. 9 liposome composition variations were tested using HeLa eGFP knock down assay at 4 siRNA concentrations (Table 6, Fig. 7f, 7g). The composition LP3 containing equal amounts of PD740 and DOTAP showed an even higher effect than composition LP2 (Fig. 7f). The composition LP4 containing a lower amount of PD740 showed a similar efficiency profile as composition LP2, while exhibiting a decreased toxicity effect (Fig.7f,g). The most effective compositions LP1, LP2, LP3 and LP4 were further explored with a 10- concentration dose response experiment using lower siRNA concentrations to be able to extract both EC50 and TC50 values with higher accuracy (Table 7). Composition LP3 was confirmed as the most ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT effective, while composition LP4 was slightly less effective, but showed lower toxicity (Fig. 7h,i) confirming the results of Fig.7f,g. Variation of N / P ratio All previous data were obtained with liposomes containing siRNA at an N / P ratio of 20:1. To explore the scope of possible N / P ratios for the delivery system, liposome formulations of composition LP1 containing siRNA against eGFP were also prepared at charge ratios 40:1, 10:1 and 5:1. The encapsulation of siRNA was 93% at N / P 5:1 (see example 7 and Fig.2k), leading to the conclusion that any higher charge ratio will lead to an encapsulation above this value, close to 100%. eGFP downregulation with these liposomes was tested at 4 concentrations in HeLa eGFP cells. The GFP intensity and nuclei number were calculated as difference to the same formulation at N / P ratio 20:1 by subtracting the value for the N / P = 20:1 control formulation from the one obtained at the same concentration for the specific formulation in the same experiment. This leads to negative values if the percentage was lower and positive values if it was higher. At concentration 10 nM all N / P ratios showed a similar downregulation result. At lower concentrations the 5:1 formulation was less effective, while the 40:1 is more effective. At the lowest concentration tested (1 nM) the downregulation result was again close to within error for all ratios tested (Fig.7j). The toxicity of all preparations is within error for all N / P ratios tested (Fig.7k). Screening of potential fusogenic agents To show that other fusogenic agents than LBPA can be used to reach the same effect, LBPA in siRNA containing liposomes of composition LP3 was replaced with different fusogenic agents. The 14 resulting liposome variations were tested each at 10 siRNA concentrations for their GFP downregulation efficiency and toxicity in HeLa eGFP cells (Table 8). The compounds used were identified from literature as either being fusogenic or being lipids that prefer hexagonal or cubic phase packing. Liposome variations with MGDG and PLPE showed the same efficiency in downregulation as those with LBPA (Fig.8a). Liposomes containing PLPE showed a similar toxicity profile as LP3 composition with LBPA, while liposomes containing MGDG were less toxic (Fig. 8b). Liposomes containing GMO, IsostA, and POPE showed an activity comparable to composition LP1 (Fig.8c), with higher or comparable toxicity (Fig.8d). These results show that other compounds can be used as fusogenic agents for the developed delivery system. Combination of different fusogenic agents with LBPA in the same composition Four liposome composition variations of LP3 containing both LBPA and an additional active fusogenic agent were tested at 10 siRNA concentrations in HeLa eGFP (Table 9). The downregulation efficiency of liposome compositions with MGDG and PLPE was comparable to LP3, while compositions with GMO and isostearic acid were lower in efficiency (Fig. 8e). All ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT compositions tested show a similar toxicity profile (Fig.8f). These results suggest that the effect in HeLa cannot be boosted by a fusogenic agent combination, but is also not decreased. Example 14 – uptake of liposomes containing labeled siRNA in primary bone marrow derived mouse macrophages Description of method: Murine Macrophage Purification from Bone Marrow Homogeneous population of quiescent murine monocytes were derived from bone marrow protocol to seed them in 38 multi well plates (Greiner 781092). Briefly, femurs and tibia from C57Bl6 mouse strain were extracted from the mouse after euthanasia following cervical dislocation. The bones were mechanically cleaned from contaminating tissues and resuspended in cold PBS. Samples were transferred to a sterile laminar flow hood for extraction of bone marrow and purification of the relevant cell type. Always working on ice, the cleaned bones were cut at both ends using a surgical scalpel. Using a 10 cc syringe with a 25 Gauge needle filled with 3 ml of cold PBS, the bone marrow was flushed in an empty 50 ml tube (Corning, 430829) until the cavity of the bone resulted empty. The process was repeated with each available bone, and at the end the cell suspension was disaggregated by continuous pipetting using a 5 ml pipette (Sarstedt, 86.1253.001). The cell suspension was passed through a wet 40 micron sieve (Falcon, 352340) to filter out big tissue clumps, and the filter was washed with cold PBS. The tube was centrifuged at 300xg for 10 minutes on a tabletop centrifuge (Beckman Coultr, Allegra X-22R), and after the centrifugation the supernatant was removed and the cellular pellet was resuspended in PBS, 0.5%BSA, 2mM EDTA. The viable cell number of the complex mixture was determined using the Luna2 automated cell counter. A volume containing a total of 5x107cells was then transferred to an empty 15 ml tube and the cell suspension was centrifuged at 300xg for 10 minutes, after which the supernatant was completely aspirated, being careful not to disrupt the cell pellet, which was then resuspended in 350 microliters of PBS, 0.5% BSA, 2mM EDTA. A Mouse Monocyte isolation kit (Miltenyi, 130-091- 153) was used to purify the monocytes: 25 microliters of FCR Blocking reagent was added to the cell suspension, followed by addition of 50 microliters of Monocyte-Biotin antibody cocktail. The suspension was then incubated for 5 minutes on ice, after which 10 ml of cold PBS, 0.5%BSA, 2mM EDTA was added to the mix. Suspension was then centrifuged at 300xg for 10 minutes, supernatant was discarded and the pellet was again resuspended in 400 µl of PBS, 0.5% BSA, 2mM EDTA.100 µl of AntiBiotin Cocktail solution was added to the suspension and incubated for 10 minutes on ice. During this incubation, LS columns (Miltenyi Biotec, 130-042-401) were assembled on a MACS magnetic stand (Miltenyi Biotec, 130-042-303) and rinsed with 3 ml of cold PBS, 0.5% BSA, 2 mM EDTA to drip in an empty beaker. Upon the end of the drip, the beaker was substituted with an empty 15 ml falcon tube on ice. Cell suspension was applied to the column, and the column was washed 3 times with 3 ml of PBS, 0.5% BSA, 2 mM EDTA collecting the flow through. This cell suspension ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT was again centrifuged at 300xg, supernatant discarded and pellet resuspended in 2 ml of PBS, 0.5% BSA, 2 mM EDTA. After evaluation of cell number using the LUNA2 automated cell counter, an appropriate number of cells were resuspended in DMEM / F12 (Gibco, 21331-020), 10% FBS (GE Healthcare, A15-102), 50 µg / ml of Gentamicin and 10 ng / ml of macrophage colony-stimulating factor MCSF (Peprotech, 315-02-100UG) to differentiate the monocytes into mouse macrophages (MM): typically MM cells were seeded and cultured at 37 °C and 5% CO2 in 384 well format , using 15,000 cells per well, in 50 microliters of medium. Assessment of uptake of liposomes LP1-liposomes containing Alexa 647 labeled siRNA made by the protocol described in example 1 were transfected in MM in 384 well format to assess their uptake. Prior to transfection, MM were cultured for at least 5 days in DMEM / F1210% FBS, 50 µg / ml of gentamicin, 10 ng / ml of MCSF into a black 384 well cell culture microplate (Greiner 781092). The transfection mixes were prepared in a 96 well master plate: the liposomes were diluted to 10x the siRNA concentration of the final concentration (5 nM) in 5% glucose. Untreated control samples were prepared using only buffer. Directly before transfection, equal volume of DMEM containing 20% FBS was added to each transfection mix to have a concentration of siRNA of 5x the final concentration for the transfection and 10% FBS.10 µl of this transfection mix was added to each well of the 384 well plate containing 40 µl of medium, resulting in a final concentration of 5 nM. Each condition was typically tested in quadruplicate. The plate was cultured at 37 °C and 5% CO2. After 5 h the plate was washed with PBS using the automated PowerWasher cell washer (TECAN) and fixed with 3.7% formaldehyde in PBS for 15 min. After additional washing with PBS each well was stained with 1 µg / ml DAPI (SIGMA, D9542-5MG) and 0.25 µg / ml HCS CellMask™ Blue Stain (Invitrogen, H32720) in PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Every treatment was performed in quadruplicate. Imaging and data analysis: The plate was imaged at 40x magnification on a Yokogawa CellVoyager CV7000 automated laser spinning disk microscope. 4 fields per well were imaged. Images were adjusted and exported with MotionTracking (http: / / motiontracking.mpi-cbg.de). Results: MM were incubated with Alexa 647-labeled siRNA formulated in LP1-liposomes. Internalization of labelled siRNA visualized by confocal microscopy yielded a specific vesicular pattern as expected for uptake by endocytosis (Fig.4a). No aspecific signal could be seen in the 647 channel in untreated cells. Example 15 – transfection of bone marrow derived macrophages from LifeAct eGFP mice with siRNA containing liposomes ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Description of method Isolation of primary cells Primary mouse macrophages (MM) cells were isolated from a mouse strain expressing the LifeAct reporter: the procedure for isolations and differentiation is as described in example14. The transfections were routinely made in 384 well formats, using 15,000 cells per well. Transfection Liposomes containing anti eGFP siRNA or A647 labeled anti eGFP siRNAmade by the protocol described in example 1 were transfected in MM from LifeAct reporter mouse to assess eGFP downregulation efficiency. The following description is for a dose response experiment with concentration points taken at 20, 10, 5, 1 and 0.1 nM. This can be adjusted to use different concentrations, more or less points if necessary. The transfection mixes were prepared in a 96 well master plate: the liposomes were diluted to 10x the concentration of the highest concentration point (100 nM) in the same buffer used for liposome preparation (e.g.5% glucose). A serial dilution was performed using automated multichannel pipettes (Eppendorf) to obtain solutions at 10x concentration for the other concentration points. Untreated control samples were prepared using only buffer. Directly before transfection, equal volume of DMEM / F12 containing 20% FBS and 20 ng / ml of MCSF was added to each transfection mix to have a concentration of siRNA of 5x the final concentration of the transfection and 10% FBS. 10 µl of this transfection mix was added to each well of the 384 well plate containing 40 µl of medium. Each condition was tested in quadruplicate. The plate was further cultured for 72 h and then fixed with 3.7% formaldehyde in PBS for 15 min. After additional washing with PBS each well was stained with 1 µg / ml DAPI and 0.25 µg / ml HCS CellMask™ Blue Stain in PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Every treatment was performed in quadruplicate. Imaging and data analysis was performed as described in Example 12, except that 9 fields per well were recorded with the Perkin Elmer Operetta high throughput microplate imager and 4 fields per well, sufficient to cover >90% of the well, were recorded with the Yokogawa Cell Voyager CV7000 automated laser spinning disk microscope. EC50 / TC50 calculation EC50 and TC50 values for 4 and 10 siRNA concentration datasets were calculated by fitting a 4- parameter logistic equation to the GFP intensity and nuclei number normalized to untreated control in response to siRNA concentration as described in example 12. For the 4 and 10 concentration datasets in macrophages only the GFP intensity data could be fitted, as mainly non-toxic concentrations were explored. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Scoring Scoring of toxicity and effect was done as described in example 12. Results: siRNA downregulation with liposomes MM isolated from a LifeAct-eGFP reporter mouse were incubated with various anti eGFP siRNA concentrations (1-20 nM) formulated in LP1 liposomes made according to protocol in example 1 for 5 hours. Downregulation of eGFP was determined by confocal microscopy imaging and quantitative image analysis as described above. Downregulation of eGFP intensity compared to untreated control increase in response to siRNA concentration, reaching value of 70% eGFP downregulation at of 20 nM, while no evident effect on cell viability as determined by the number of nuclei was detected (Fig 4c). Dose dependency of siRNA downregulation with liposomes (10 concentrations) To explore the dose dependency of siRNA downregulation with liposomes of composition LP1 made by the protocol detailed in example 1 in greater detail, a dose response curve with 10 concentration points was conducted. This allowed for a more exact calculation of the effect and toxic concentration (Fig.4d). By fitting a four-parameter log-logistics model, the half maximal effective concentration (EC50) was calculated to be 6.37 nM. It was not possible to calculate the half maximal toxic concentration from this experiment as the fitting was not applicable. Toxicity would need to be explored at higher concentrations. Reproducibility of dose dependent GFP downregulation and toxicity profile mediated by siRNA in liposomes Downregulation by siRNA at four concentrations in liposomes of composition LP1 containing 3,3’- LBPA as the fusogenic agent and prepared according to the protocol detailed in example 1 was shown to be reproducible over a large number of repeated experiments (Fig. 4e). The toxicity profile was reproducible as well (Fig.4f). Example 16 – Variation of chemical composition of the identified siRNA delivery system in MM 20 liposome composition variations of initial compositions LP1 and LP3 previously tested on HeLa cells (datasets from tables 7-9, using PD740 and DOTAP as encapsulating agents, and other potential fusogenic compounds to replace LBPA or in combination with LBPA) were tested on bone-marrow derived macrophages from LifeAct eGFP mice at 10 concentrations to compare efficiency profiles (Tables 10, 11, 12). The different composition variations of anti eGFP siRNA-containing liposomes were made by the protocol detailed in example 1 and tested for their downregulation efficiency and toxicity in HeLa eGFP cells at different siRNA concentrations prior to testing on macrophages ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT (example 13). In vitro parameters (size, stability, encapsulation and siRNA content) were analyzed for each liposome variation with the techniques detailed in examples 6 and 7. Results obtained with the different liposome compositions are detailed in the following paragraphs. Encapsulating agent variation Similar as in HeLa cells, composition LP3 showed a higher downregulation (KD) efficiency and statistically significant lower EC50 than formulation LP1. The difference between the values is not as pronounced as in HeLa cells. Formulation LP4 is significantly less active in macrophages than in HeLa (Fig.9a, Table 10). Generalization of fusogenic agent concept Replacement of LBPA in formulation LP3 with different fusogenic agents leads to a different downregulation efficiency in macrophages. Compositions with MGDG and PLPE that showed similar activity as LP3 with LBPA for HeLa transfection showed reduced activity compared to LP3 or no activity in mouse macrophages. Compositions with POPE, which in HeLa showed a reduced activity compared to LP3, showed a similar effect as LP3 in macrophages (Fig.9 b, Table 11). Combination of different fusogenic agents with LBPA in the same composition In contrast to the result in HeLa, combinations of LBPA with an additional fusogenic agent within LP3 formulation had increased downregulation activity compared to LP3 (containing only LBPA) as showed by a significantly lower EC50 (Fig.9c, Table 12). Conclusion: The efficiency of different compositions resulted to be cell type specific. Composition LP3 showed increased GFPdownregulation efficiency in response to siRNA compared to LP1 in macrophages, but different fusogenic agents showed a different effect in macrophages compared to HeLa cells. A combination of LBPA with an additional fusogenic agent can boost the efficiency of LP3 in macrophages, but not in HeLa cells. Example 17 – transfection of primary hepatocytes from LifeAct eGFP mice with siRNA containing liposomes Description of method Hepatocyte isolation Primary mouse hepatocytes were isolated from LifeAct eGFP mice via collagenase perfusion using a previously described protocol. Mice were anaesthetized using i.p. injection with Ketamin:Rompun (1.6:1) and fixed unto a sterile surface. The abdominal wall was opened to expose the organs and intestine and fat tissue are moved to expose the venae cavae and the hepatic portal vein. A needle (20G x 1 ½’’, 0.9x40 mm, not sharpt) attached to a peristaltic pump was inserted into the venae ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT cavae, running with a flow rate of 10 ml / min, and the hepatic portal vein was cut to drain solutions. The liver was rinsed for 10 min with EGTA buffer (0.19 g / l EGTA, 0.04 M NaOH, 5.67 g / l glucose, 6.10 g / l NaCl, 0.18 g / l KCl, 0.16 g / l KH2PO4, 6.10 g / l HEPES, 0.07 g / l glutamine, 0.04 g / l L-alanine, 0.02 g / l L-aspartic acid, 0.06 g / l asparagine, 0.04 g / l citrulline, 0.02 g / l L-cysteine, 0.15 g / l L- histidine, 0.15 g / l L-glutamic acid, 0.15 g / l glycine, 0.06 g / l L-isoleucine, 0.12 g / l L-leucine, 0.20 g / l L-lysine, 0.08 g / l L-methionine, 0.10 g / l L-ornithine, 0.08 g / l L-phenylalanine, 0.08 g / l L-proline, 0.10 g / l L-serine, 0.20 g / l L-threonine, 0.10 g / l L-tryptophan, 0.08 g / l L-tyrosine, 0.12 g / l L-valine). The solution was switched to collagenase (0.35 g / l collagenase (1-2.5 U / ml) in collagenase buffer (5.46 g / l glucose, 5.87 g / l NaCl, 0.17 g / l KCl, 0.16 g / l KH2PO4, 5.87 g / l HEPES, 0.07 g / l glutamine, 0.74 g / l CaCl2, 0.04 g / l L-alanine, 0.02 g / l L-aspartic acid, 0.06 g / l asparagine, 0.04 g / l citrulline, 0.02 g / l L-cysteine, 0.15 g / l L-histidine, 0.15 g / l L-glutamic acid, 0.15 g / l glycine, 0.06 g / l L- isoleucine, 0.12 g / l L-leucine, 0.20 g / l L-lysine, 0.08 g / l L-methionine, 0.10 g / l L-ornithine, 0.08 g / l L-phenylalanine, 0.08 g / l L-proline, 0.10 g / l L-serine, 0.20 g / l L-threonine, 0.10 g / l L-tryptophan, 0.08 g / l L-tyrosine, 0.12 g / l L-valine)) and perfused for 8 min. After the perfusion the liver was removed from the animal and put into 15 ml suspension buffer (5.63 g / l glucose, 6.05 g / l NaCl, 0.18 g / l KCl, 0.16 g / l KH2PO4, 6.05 g / l HEPES, 0.07 g / l glutamine, 0.15 g / l CaCl2, 0.10 g / l MgSO4, 0.04 g / l L-alanine, 0.02 g / l L-aspartic acid, 0.06 g / l asparagine, 0.04 g / l citrulline, 0.02 g / l L-cysteine, 0.15 g / l L-histidine, 0.15 g / l L-glutamic acid, 0.15 g / l glycine, 0.06 g / l L-isoleucine, 0.12 g / l L- leucine, 0.20 g / l L-lysine, 0.08 g / l L-methionine, 0.10 g / l L-ornithine, 0.08 g / l L-phenylalanine, 0.08 g / l L-proline, 0.10 g / l L-serine, 0.20 g / l L-threonine, 0.10 g / l L-tryptophan, 0.08 g / l L-tyrosine, 0.12 g / l L-valine). Hepatocytes were extracted from the liver tissue using forceps. The cell suspension was filtered though a cell strainer (100µm pore size) and diluted to 50 ml with suspension buffer. The cells were pelleted by centrifugation at 4 °C with 50xg for 5 ml and the pellet was washed with 50 ml suspension buffer and recentrifuged before being resuspended in 10 ml suspension buffer by gentle inversion. Hepatocyte plating Cells were plated into 96 well plates (Greiner 655090) precoated with collagen using a previously published protocol. Rat tail collagen (10 mg, Roche 11179179001) was dissolved in sterile 0.2% acetic acid (10 ml) and incubated at 4 °C for at least 6 h, this solution was diluted to a concentration of 0.9 mg / ml in 10x DMEM and the pH was adjusted to 7.4. The collagen bottom layer was added to the wells by adding 25 µl of this solution and letting it polymerize at 37°C for 1h before adding 150 µl Williams E medium (Pan Biotech P04-29150), substituted with 10% FBS (Pan Biotech P40- 37500), 100 nM dexamethasone (Sigma D4902-500MG) and penicillin / streptomycin (Gibco 15140- 122). The medium was removed and replaced by cell solution containing 30,000 cells per well. Cells were incubated for 1,5 h at 37°C in an atmosphere with 5% CO2 atmosphere for attachment, washed two times with PBS and 90 µl Williams E medium was added. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Hepatocyte transfection siRNA liposomes of composition LP1 containing anti eGFP siRNA prepared to protocol described in example 1 were diluted to 10x the desired concentration for transfection in a master plate and 10 µl of this solution was added to each well. The plate was incubated for 5 h, washed with PBS and a second collagen layer was added on top by adding 50 µl of 0.6 mg / ml collagen solution. The plate was incubated for 1 h at 37 °C before 150 µl of Williams E medium was added on top. The plate was incubated for 3 d at 37 °C and the medium was replaced with fresh medium each day. For fixation medium is removed and 100 µl of 3.7% formaldehyde solution is added and incubated at room temperature for 15 min. The plate is washed three times with PBS and stained with 1 µg / ml DAPI (SIGMA, D9542-5MG) and 0.5 µg / ml HCS CellMask™ Blue Stain (Invitrogen, H32720) in PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Imaging and data analysis: The plate was imaged with 10x magnification on a Yokogawa CellVoyager CV7000 automated laser spinning disk microscope (6 fields per well). The cell area was masked based on the DAPI / CMB staining and the total GFP intensity normalized by masked area for each image was analyzed. The GFP intensity in percentage was calculated as follows: The mean GFP intensity per well was averaged per condition. This value was normalized to the value calculated the same way from the untreated control wells. The analysis was conducted using MotionTracking software (http: / / motiontracking.mpi-cbg.de, Collinet, C. et al., Systems survey of endocytosis by multiparametric image analysis. Nature 464, 243–249 (2010)) for segmentation, parameter extraction, averaging and normalization. Results: Primary hepatocytes isolated from a LifeAct-eGFP reporter mouse were incubated with various concentrations (0.1-20 nM) of siRNA against eGFP formulated in liposomes of composition LP1 made according to protocol in example 1 for 5 hours. Downregulation of eGFP was determined by confocal microscopy imaging and quantitative image analysis as previously described (Fig. 4g). Increasing concentrations of liposome-siRNA caused up to 97% downregulation of eGFP intensity compared to untreated control, while it had limited effect on cell viability as determined by the number of nuclei (Fig 4h). Example 18 – transfection of HeLa cells with mRNA containing liposomes Description of method Liposomes were made by the protocol described in example 3 containing an mRNA coding for eGFP fluorescent reporter (TriLink Biotechnologies, L-7201) and were used to transfect HeLa cells, (Accession: CVCL_1922, https: / / www.cellosaurus.org / CVCL_1922) (2000 cells / well in a 384 well ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT plate) to assess the ability to induce expression of the fluorescent reporter, as monitored by automated microscopy. The cells were plated and cultured as in example 12. The following description is for a dose response experiment with concentration points ranging from 1.25 µg / ml to 0.039 µg / ml This can be adjusted to use different concentrations, more or less points if necessary. Liposomes containing mRNA were prepared (e.g.5% glucose) at the highest concentration necessary for transfection as described in example 3 using a lipid to mRNA ratio of 6:1. Serial dilution was performed using automated multichannel pipettes (Eppendorf) to obtain solutions at 10x concentration for the other concentration points. Untreated control samples were prepared using only buffer. Directly before transfection, equal volume of DMEM containing 20% FBS was added to each transfection mix to have a concentration of mRNA of 5x the final concentration of the transfection and 10% FBS.10 µl of this transfection mix was added to each well of the 384 well plate containing 40 µl of medium. Each condition was tested in quadruplicate. The plate was further cultured for 24 hours and then fixed with 3.7% formaldehyde for 15 min. After additional washing with PBS each well was stained with 1 µg / ml DAPI and 0.25 µg / ml HCS CellMask™ Blue Stain in PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Every treatment was performed in quadruplicate. Imaging and data analysis: The plate was imaged with 10x magnification on a Yokogawa CellVoyager CV7000 automated laser spinning disk microscope.4 fields per well were imaged. The nuclei and cells were segmented based on the DAPI / CMB staining and the mean GFP intensity for each nucleus was recorded. The total cell number in percentage was calculated as follows: The number of nuclei per image was summed up per well and then averaged per condition. This value was normalized to the value calculated the same way from the untreated control wells and multiplied by 100. The GFP intensity was calculated as follows: Median of the mean GFP intensity per nucleus or per cell was calculated per image, averaged per well and averaged per condition. Additionally, the number of cells expressing GFP was calculated from single cell data, utilizing a threshold evaluated on the comparison of the distribution of the value of the mean intensity of eGFP in the untreated cells and cells transfected with the eGFP mRNA. The threshold was chosen in order to exclude false positives due to cell autofluorescence: cells having values of mean eGFP fluorescence above that threshold were considered as GFP positive, while cells below were considered GFP negative. For each well, the number of cells that were evaluated as positives was counted and the percentage of GFP expressing cells was evaluated calculating the ratio of these positive cells and the total number of cells per condition, and multiplying it by 100. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT The analysis was conducted using CellProfiler for segmentation and parameter extraction and Knime Analytics platform for calculation, averaging and normalization. Results: Liposomes of composition LP1 carrying eGFP mRNA can induce eGFP expression in HeLa cells at a low charge ratio of 6:1 (positive / negative) in a dose-dependent manner within 24 h. Over 90% of all cells were GFP positive by using liposomes with eGFP mRNA at a dose of 0.31 µg / ml without toxicity (Fig. 5d, e). A similar result can be obtained at a charge ratio of 3:1 (Fig.5f). Comparing a wider range of N / P ratios ranging between 1:1 and 20:1 showed that similar number of cells can be transfected at the same concentration with any ratio above 3:1 (Fig.5h), the highest eGFP expression at the same concentration can be reached with 3:1 ratio. Both the lower and higher ratios show lower expression (Fig. 5g). Toxicity for all N / P ratios above 3:1 was similar and is lower for the less effective N / P ratio 1:1 (Fig.5i). Exploration of chemical space of the identified delivery system for mRNA delivery Different liposomal compositions were tested for their transfection efficiency of mRNA in HeLa cells and compared with the initial composition LP1. Compositions containing varying amounts of solasodine showed a similar response in terms of total cell number expressing eGFP at a specific mRNA concentration (Fig. 12a). In terms of eGFP intensity, solasodine containing compositions show slightly increased expression levels in one out of three experiments (Fig. 12b). Compositions LP3 and LP4 (the most effective compositions for siRNA delivery in HeLa cells and primary macrophages (see figure 7h, 7i and 9a; Tables 7 and 10)) did not result to be the most effective for mRNA delivery. mRNA containing LP3 showed a similar effect as mRNA containing LP1, while mRNA containing LP4 was much less effective (Fig.12c,d). Both showed higher toxicity at concentrations 0.3125 and 0.625 µg / ml compared to LP1 (Fig.12e). Compositions with MGDG and PLPE (combining PD740, DOTAP and MGDG / PLPE as fusogenic agents) were among the most effective compositions for siRNA delivery and GFP downregulation in HeLa and primary macrophages (see Fig. 8e,f and 9b, Tables 8 and 11). For mRNA delivery in HeLa cells they showed a response at much lower concentration than the original composition LP1, reaching most cells already at the lowest concentration tested (Fig. 12f). GFP expression intensity was also increased at the lowest concentration (Fig 12g). Toxicity levels were within the error range of the treatment with LP1 and not as pronounced as for treatment with LP3 (same formulation except LBPA as fusogenic agent) (Fig. 12h). These compositions were also tested at lower concentrations to see full dose response curve. These experiments confirmed that by using LP-MGDG and LP-PLPE compositions for mRNA delivery more cells were reached and GFP expression was higher at lower concentrations of mRNA compared to composition LP1 (Fig.12i,j). ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Example 19 – transfection of primary bone marrow derived mouse macrophages with mRNA containing liposomes Description of method Isolation of primary cells Primary MM cells were isolated from wild type C57Bl6 mouse strain. The procedure for isolations and differentiation is as described in example 14. The transfections were routinely made in 384 well formats, using 15,000 cells per well and 4 replicates for each condition Transfection Liposomes complexed with an mRNA coding for fluorescent reporter eGFP (as described in example 3) were transfected in MM to assess the ability to induce expression of the fluorescent reporter, which was monitored by automated microscopy. Transfection of MM cells with mRNA containing liposomes was performed as described in Example 18 for Hela cells. Imaging and data analysis was performed as described in Example 18. Results: eGFP expression in primary bone marrow-derived mouse macrophages after delivery of eGFP mRNA in liposomes at a charge ratio of 6:1 is dose-dependent with the majority of cells expressing eGFP at a dose of 1.25 µg / ml after 24 h without toxic effects (Fig. 5j,k). ). Liposome mRNA complexes at a charge ratio of 3:1 also show downregulation, albeit with lower efficiency, reaching 60% of cells at a dose of 1.25 µg / ml and showing lower fluorescence intensity (Fig.5l). Example 20 – transfection of primary mouse hepatocytes with mRNA containing liposomes Description of method Hepatocyte isolation and plating Primary mouse hepatocytes were isolated from wild type C57Bl6 mice via collagenase perfusion and plated as described in example 17. Hepatocyte transfection Liposomes prepared as in example 2 were complexed with an mRNA coding for eGFP (as described in example 3) at ratio N / P 3:1 were transfected into hepatocytes to assess the ability to induce expression of the fluorescent reporter. The following description is for a dose response experiment with concentrations ranging from 2,5 to 0,3125 µg / ml. Liposome mRNA complexes were diluted to 10x the desired concentration for transfection in a master plate and 10 µl of this solution was added to each well of a 96-well plate containing 90 µl of cells in Williams E medium. The plate was incubated for 5 h, washed with PBS and a second collagen layer was added on top by adding 50 µl ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT of 0.6 mg / ml collagen solution. The plate was incubated for 1 h at 37 °C before 150 µl of Williams E medium was added on top. The plate was incubated for 24 h at 37 °C before removing the medium and adding 100 µl of 3.7% formaldehyde solution for fixation. The plate was incubated at room temperature for 15 min. The plate was washed three times with PBS and stained with 1 µg / ml DAPI (SIGMA, D9542-5MG) and 0,5 µg / ml HCS CellMask™ Blue Stain (Invitrogen, H32720) in PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Imaging and data analysis: The plate was imaged with 40x magnification on a Yokogawa CellVoyager CV7000 automated laser spinning disk microscope (9 fields per well). The cell area was masked based on the DAPI / CMB staining and the total GFP intensity normalized by masked area for each image was analyzed. The GFP intensity in percentage was calculated as follows: The mean GFP intensity per well was averaged per condition. The value was substracted with the mean GFP intensity calculated the same way for untreated conditions (background). The analysis was conducted using MotionTracking software (http: / / motiontracking.mpi-cbg.de) for segmentation, parameter extraction, averaging and normalization. Results: eGFP expression in primary hepatocytes could be generated using eGFP mRNA liposomes at N / P ratio 3:1 and was dose dependent (Fig.5m,n). Example 21 – transfection of HeLa eGFP cells with CRISPR Cas9 RNP containing liposomes Description of method Liposomes were complexed with CRISPR Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complex as described in example 5 and transfected in HeLa eGFP cells to assess their ability to induce sequence specific editing of eGFP: the functional result of the sequence specific gene editing would be the lack of eGFP expression, which is evaluated by automated microscopy. Complex Cas9 / guide formation The first step in the process is the preparation of the complex between the guide / tracer and a recombinant CAS9 protein. The recombinant Cas9 protein (https: / / www.uniprot.org / uniprotkb / Q99ZW2 / entry) was obtained from the Protein Expression, Purification and Characterization (PEPC) facility of the MPI-CBG, where the protein is available in aliquots of 10µl, at the concentration of 5 mg / ml. A custom designed guide sequence against eGFP (target sequence: GGAGCGCACCATCTTCTTCA, SEQ ID NO 5) and tracr RNA were purchased from IDT (Table 14) and are available as a 100 µM stock. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT A typical complexing reaction was performed in a total volume of 35 µL, mixing 3 µL of Cas9 protein, 32 µL of protein buffer (20 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 150 mM KCl), 0.98 µL of GFP cr guide RNA and 0.98 µL of tracr RNA for 15 minutes at 37°C. The resulting concentration of the GFP cr guide RNA in the complexing solution is 2.8 µM. Transfection of liposome-RNP complex The ribonucleic protein complex (RNP) was then incubated with liposomes as in example 5. The transfection mixes were prepared in a 96 well master plate: the complexes were diluted to 10x the concentration of the highest concentration point (100 nM) of GFP cr guide RNA in the preparation buffer (e.g.5% glucose). The following description is for a dose response experiment with GFP cr guide RNA concentrations of 10, 5, 2.5, 1 and 0.1 nM. HeLa eGFP cells were cultured in DMEM media complemented with 10% FBS at 37 °C and 5% CO2 and seeded the day before the transfection into a black 384 well cell culture microplate (Greiner 781092) in DMEM medium with 10% FBS and 50 µg / ml gentamicin. Serial dilution of liposome composition and cell transfection were performed as described in Example 12. Imaging was performed using a Yokogawa CellVoyager CV7000 automated laser spinning disk microscope as described in Example 12, but imaging only 4 fields per well. Data analysis was performed using CellProfiler for segmentation and parameter extraction and Knime analytics platform for calculation, averaging and normalization as described in Example 12. Results: Using liposomes of composition LP1 loaded with Cas9 ribonucleoprotein with guide RNA mix containing GFP cr guide RNA and tracr RNA at charge ratio 9.10:1 downregulation of eGFP intensity to 20% of expression compared to untreated control is possible at 2.5 nM RNA concentration with low toxicity. Increased toxicity is observed at higher concentrations (Fig. 6a). Lowering the charge ratio to 5,46:1 shows a similar result both for downregulation and toxicity response (Fig.6b,c). Example 22 – transfection of HeLa eGFP cells with guide RNA containing liposomes Description of method Liposomes made by the protocol described in example 4 were transfected in HeLa eGFP cells to assess their ability to induce sequence specific editing of eGFP: the functional result of the gene editing would be the lack of eGFP expression evaluated with automated microscopy. Differently from Example 21 the Cas9 protein is not delivered by the liposomes, but is independently delivered by infection of the Hela cells with a BACMAM virus containing an orf for it.The BACMAM virus was produced by the Protein Expression and Purification (PEPC) facility of the MPI-CBG. ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Guide complex formation The first step in the process is the preparation of the cr guide / tracr RNA complex as species of RNA to be transfected in cells infected with a BACMAM virus containing Cas9. A custom designed guide sequence against eGFP (GFP cr guide RNA, target sequence: GGAGCGCACCATCTTCTTCA) and tracr RNA were purchased from IDT and are available as a 100 µM stock. A typical complexing reaction was performed in a total volume of 30 µL, using 28.32 µL of 20 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 150 mM KCl, 0.84 µL of GFP cr guide RNA and 0.84 µL of tracr RNA for 15 minutes at 37°C. The resulting concentration of the GFP cr guide RNA in the complexing solution is 2.8 µM. Transfection of guide RNA liposomes The guide RNA complex was then incubated with liposomes prepared by the protocol detailed in example 2 as described in example 4. The transfection mixes were prepared in a 96 well master plate: the complexes were diluted to 10x the concentration of the highest concentration point (100 nM) in the buffer that they were prepared in (e.g.5% glucose). For Cas9 expression HeLa eGFP cells were mixed with 0.71 µl of BACMAM virus solution per 1000 cells during seeding. Seeding, culture and transfection of Hela eGFP cells as well as imaging and data analysis were performed in Example 21. Results: After testing the delivery of the Cas9 protein and guide RNA mix together in form of the Cas9-guide RNA ribonucleoprotein complex (Example 21), this Example aims to determine the delivery of guide RNA mix alone into HeLa eGFP cells that were expressing the Cas9 protein. Cas9 protein was expressed in these cells prior to transfection using a BacMam system. Different liposome compositions were tested using a charge ratio of 8.45:1 which corresponds to the same amount of guide RNA mix as for the delivery of Cas9 RNP at charge ratio 9.10:1 (as used in Fig.6a). Both isoforms of LBPA in composition LP1 showed similar activity for knock out of eGFP in response to RNA concentration. A similar level could also be reached using composition LP4, while replacing the encapsulating agent for EPC 18:1 resulted in a slightly lower efficiency (Fig.6d). Toxicity was comparable for both LBPA isoforms and EPC 18:1, while it was increased for composition LP4 (Fig.6e). Toxicity is decreased compared to transfection of Cas9 RNP at the same concentration (see Fig.6 a). Using a lower charge ratio of 5.07:1 for transfection with guide RNA mix and liposomes of composition LP1 results in a similar dose response both for eGFP reduction as well as for toxicity (Fig.6f,g). Example 23 – Galectin recruitment Description of method ZSP Ref.: 1261-2 PCT Following method is to investigate the question if the liposomal delivery system causes endosomal damage by disrupting endosomal membranes during the escape process using galectin recruitment assay similar to a previous report. HeLa eGFP cells (Bramsen, J. B. et al., 2009) were cultured DMEM media complemented with 10% FBS at 37 °C and 5% CO2. The cells were seeded at the density of 600cells / 40ul / well into a black 384 well cell culture microplate (Greiner 781092) in DMEM medium with 10% FBS and 50 µg / ml gentamicin. GFP-Galectin 8 plasmid (Galectin 8 / LGALS8 cDNA ORF Clone, Human, C-GFPSpark® tag, SinoBiological HG10301-ACG) and lipofectamine 3000 were prepared in OptiMEM at 10x the final concentration and mixed in a 1:1 ratio via pipetting to reach 5x the final concentration. The transfection mix was incubated at room temperature for 15 min and 10 µl were added to each well of cells containing 40 µl total volume. The final concentrations were 10 ng / well for the Galectin plasmid and 0.1 µl / well for lipofectamine. The cells were incubated for 72h at 37 °C and 5% CO2 before being washed with BioTek EL406 washer using serum medium for 2 cycles. In each cycle, the medium was aspirated to 20 µl and 90 µl of medium was added. For final aspiration, the me...
