AI Technical Summary
Nucleic acid drugs, such as siRNA and mRNA, face challenges due to chemical instability and difficulty in penetrating cell membranes, limiting their therapeutic efficacy as standalone agents.
A novel cationic lipid-based formulation forms lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) that efficiently encapsulate nucleic acids, enhancing stability and cellular uptake, allowing for targeted delivery and regulation of gene expression.
The cationic lipid nanoparticles effectively protect nucleic acids from degradation and facilitate their intracellular delivery, enabling precise modulation of gene expression in multiple cell lines.

Abstract
Description
cationic lipids
[0001] The present invention relates to novel cationic lipids.
[0002] Unlike conventional drugs that target proteins, nucleic acid drugs can introduce and suppress sequence-specific target genes in vivo and ex vivo. By simply changing the design of the target sequence, it is possible to promote or suppress the expression of any protein. Therefore, nucleic acid drugs are attracting attention as next-generation pharmaceuticals that can treat not only general diseases but also genetic diseases and intractable diseases with high unmet medical needs.
[0003] Examples of nucleic acids that can be introduced into the body as nucleic acid drugs include siRNA (small interfering RNA), mRNA (messenger RNA), miRNA (microRNA), shRNA (small hairpin RNA or short hairpin RNA), antisense oligonucleotides, and immunostimulatory nucleic acids.
[0004] Although these nucleic acids are chemically stable, they have problems for therapeutic use in that they are easily degraded by nucleases in vivo and have low uptake efficiency into target cells due to their poor permeability through cell membranes alone. To overcome these two major problems, research has been conducted for many years on chemical modification of nucleic acids themselves and drug delivery systems (DDS) that deliver nucleic acids into target cells.
[0005] Examples of DDS include methods using carriers such as cationic liposomes and polymeric micelles. For example, it is known that encapsulating nucleic acids in microparticles containing cationic lipids protects the nucleic acids from degradation in the blood and enables their permeation through lipid-soluble cell membranes. Patent Document 1 describes the following compounds as such cationic lipids. The lipid formulation described in Patent Document 1 is a composition in which therapeutic nucleic acids are encapsulated in microparticles containing the lipids, and protects the nucleic acids from degradation in serum. The formulation is efficiently delivered throughout the body, and the encapsulated nucleic acids are also efficiently delivered into cells.
[0006] Furthermore, various compounds have been developed as cationic lipids that are expected to be used in nucleic acid medicines (Patent Documents 2 to 7 and 9, Non-Patent Documents 1 to 3).
[0007] Patent Document 2 describes the following compound. Patent Document 3 describes the following compound. Patent Document 4 and Non-Patent Document 1 describe the following compound ALN-319. Patent Document 5 describes the following compound YS-119.
[0008] Patent Document 6 describes the following compound. Patent Document 7 describes the following compound. Patent Document 9 describes the following compound. Non-Patent Document 2 describes the following compound. Non-Patent Document 3 describes the following compound. Patent Document 8 describes the use of the following compound as a lubricant. However, the cationic lipids of the present invention are neither described nor suggested in the above prior art.

[0011] An object of the present invention is to provide novel cationic lipids that form lipid particles.
[0012] As a result of extensive research, the present inventors have designed and synthesized a novel cationic lipid.

They have also found that the nucleic acids contained in the LNPs suppress the expression of target sequences and promote the expression of target proteins in multiple cell lines.
