STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT This invention was made with government support under TR002776 awarded by the National Institutes of Health. The government has certain rights in the invention. REFERENCE TO AN ELECTRONIC SEQUENCE LISTING The XML file named “046483-7483WO1 - Sequence Listing.xml” created on October 16, 2025, comprising 2,087 bytes, is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. BACKGROUND Messenger RNA (mRNA)-based therapeutics have revolutionized treatments across a wide range of applications for vaccination, protein replacement therapy, cancer immunotherapy, and gene editing. Among non-viral delivery platforms, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), comprised of an ionizable lipid, phospholipid, cholesterol, and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) lipid, have emerged as the most promising platforms for mRNA therapeutic delivery. Despite advancements in LNP technoloogy, the discontinuous vasculature of hepatic sinusoids results in preferential accumulation of mRNA-LNPs in the liver, confining transgene expression exclusively to hepatic cells following systemic administration. Thus, there is a need in the art for ionizable lipids and lipid nanoparticles comprising the same which permit targeting of extrahepatic tissues (e.g., lymph nodes) and / or dendritic cells for enhanced mRNA therapeutic delivery. The present disclosure addresses this need.

Likewise, the statement "about X, Y, or about Z" has the same meaning as "about X, about Y, or about Z," unless indicated otherwise. In this document, the terms "a," "an," or "the" are used to include one or more than one unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The term "or" is used to refer to a nonexclusive "or" unless otherwise indicated. The statement "at least one of A and B" or "at least one of A or B" has the same meaning as "A, B, or A and B." In addition, it is to be understood that the phraseology or terminology employed herein, and not otherwise defined, is for the purpose of description only and not of limitation. Any use of section headings is intended to aid reading of the document and is not to be interpreted as limiting; information that is relevant to a section heading may occur within or outside of that particular section. All publications, patents, and patent documents referred to in this document are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety, as though individually incorporated by reference. In the methods described herein, the acts can be carried out in any order, except when a temporal or operational sequence is explicitly recited. Furthermore, specified acts can be carried out concurrently unless explicit claim language recites that they be carried out separately. For example, a claimed act of doing X and a claimed act of doing Y can be conducted simultaneously within a single operation, and the resulting process will fall within the literal scope of the claimed process. Description: Aryl-Alkyl Disulfide Ionizable Lipid Compounds Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are a clinically advanced mRNA vaccine platform, as - 12 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 demonstrated by the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, as they can robustly transfect lymph nodes and elicit a strong immune response. However, these LNPs also highly distribute into the liver, leading to hepatic toxicity. Furthermore, lipid tail length and regiochemistry can functionally change how the lipids interact with mRNA, yet these aspects of lipid design have not yet been widely explored, and more broadly, the relationship between lipid design and LNP performance is poorly understood. In one aspect, the disclosure relates to the synthesis of a library of 14 novel ionizable lipids (ILs) with bioreducible disulfide bonds and varied tail lengths and regiochemistries. It was hypothesized that these moieties would reduce lipid toxicity while enhancing transfection, as LNPs with aromatic rings have demonstrated significantly improved transfection in vivo when compared to LNPs without aromatic rings. These ILs further enabled investigation of the structure-function relationship between IL tail length, regiochemistry, and transfection in lymph nodes and the liver. Mice were intramuscularly administered LNPs utilizing the LNPs of the disclosure and gold standards C12-200 and SM-102 and it was found that LNPs comprising ILs with a 6-10 carbon tail length in the meta and para positions outperformed C12-200 and SM-102 in achieving a high lymph node to liver delivery ratio. Further, LNPs containing ILs with disulfide bonds and aromatic rings outperformed similar ILs without these moieties in achieving high lymph node and decreased liver delivery, indicating that aromatic rings and disulfide bonds may play a central role in retaining LNPs in the endothelium. Thus, the LNPs of the disclosure, and methods of use thereof, represent an effective mRNA vaccine platform. Description: Amidine-Crosslinker Containing Ionizable Lipid Compounds In one aspect, the disclosure describes potent vaccine efficacy of the lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) of the disclosure, as demonstrated by LNP-mediated metabolic reprogramming toward glycolysis, along with efficient antigen mRNA delivery. Through imidoester crosslinker-based conjugation chemistry, a library of 80 ionizable lipids with various linked ionizable amine core structures was generated. This high-throughput synthesis of ionizable lipids with structural diversity enabled the discovery of a multifunctional ionizable lipid, C12-2aN, capable of both efficient mRNA delivery and metabolic modulation. LNPs formulated with C12-2aN not only facilitated efficient endosomal escape of mRNA for vaccine antigen expression, but also effectively stimulated glycolysis, resulting in robust vaccine efficacy in SARS-CoV-2. The synergistic effect of the LNPs induced notable neutralization of pseudovirus infection and antigen-specific memory cell - 13 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 differentiation, contributing to long-term protection. Additionally, in ovalbumin (OVA) cancer models, vaccination with the LNPs induced infiltration of IFN-g expressing lymphocytes, leading to tumor growth inhibition and improved survival rates. Since LNPs are the most clinically advanced mRNA vaccine delivery vehicles, proven by their remarkable success as SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, the integration of mRNA delivery and metabolic reprogramming into a single LNP formulation offers significant potential as a next generation mRNA vaccine.

Examples include, but are not limited to – C^CH, -C^C(CH3), -C^C(CH2CH3), -CH2C^CH, -CH2C^C(CH3), and -CH2C^C(CH2CH3) among others. The term “alkylene” or “alkylenyl” as used herein refers to a bivalent saturated aliphatic radical (e.g., -CH2-, -CH2CH2-, and -CH2CH2CH2-, inter alia). In certain embodiments, the term may be regarded as a moiety derived from an alkene by opening of the double bond or from an alkane by removal of two hydrogen atoms from the same (e.g., - CH2-) different (e.g., -CH2CH2-) carbon atoms. Similarly, the terms “heteroalkylenyl”, “cycloalkylenyl”, “heterocycloalkylenyl”, and the like, as used herein, refer to a divalent radical of the moiety corresponding to the base group (e.g., heteroalkyl, cycloalkyl, and / or heterocycloalkyl). A divalent radical possesses two open valencies at any position(s) of the group, wherein each radical may be on a carbon atom or heteroatom. Thus, the divalent radical may form a single bond to two distinct atoms or groups, or may form a double bond with one atom. The term “antigen” or “Ag” as used herein is defined as a molecule that provokes an adaptive immune response. This immune response may involve either antibody production, or the activation of specific immunogenically-competent cells, or both. The skilled artisan will understand that any macromolecule, including virtually all proteins or peptides, can serve as an antigen. Furthermore, antigens can be derived from recombinant or genomic DNA or RNA. A skilled artisan will understand that any DNA or RNA, which comprises a nucleotide sequences or a partial nucleotide sequence encoding a protein that elicits an adaptive immune response therefore encodes an “antigen” as that term is used herein. Furthermore, one skilled in the art will understand that an antigen need not be encoded solely by a full length nucleotide sequence of a gene. It is readily apparent that the present invention includes, but is - 15 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 not limited to, the use of partial nucleotide sequences of more than one gene and that these nucleotide sequences are arranged in various combinations to elicit the desired immune response. Moreover, a skilled artisan will understand that an antigen need not be encoded by a “gene” at all.

The term “cycloalkenyl” alone or in combination denotes a cyclic alkenyl group. A “disease” is a state of health of an animal wherein the animal cannot maintain homeostasis, and wherein if the disease is not ameliorated then the animal’s health continues to deteriorate. In contrast, a “disorder” in an animal is a state of health in which the animal is able to maintain homeostasis, but in which the animal’s state of health is less favorable than it would be in the absence of the disorder. Left untreated, a disorder does not necessarily cause a - 17 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 further decrease in the animal’s state of health. A disease or disorder is “alleviated” if the severity of a symptom of the disease or disorder, the frequency with which such a symptom is experienced by a patient, or both, is reduced. As used herein, the terms “effective amount,” “pharmaceutically effective amount” and “therapeutically effective amount” refer to a nontoxic but sufficient amount of an agent to provide the desired biological result. That result may be reduction and / or alleviation of the signs, symptoms, or causes of a disease, or any other desired alteration of a biological system. An appropriate therapeutic amount in any individual case may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art using routine experimentation. In particular, in the case of a mRNA, and “effective amount” or “therapeutically effective amount” of a therapeutic nucleic acid as relating to a mRNA is an amount sufficient to produce the desired effect, e.g., mRNA-directed expression of an amount of a protein that causes a desirable biological effect in the organism within which the protein is expressed. For example, in some embodiments, the expressed protein is an active form of a protein that is normally expressed in a cell type within the body, and the therapeutically effective amount of the mRNA is an amount that produces an amount of the encoded protein that is at least 50% (e.g., at least 60%, or at least 70%, or at least 80%, or at least 90%) of the amount of the protein that is normally expressed in the cell type of a healthy individual. For example, in some embodiments, the expressed protein is a protein that is normally expressed in a cell type within the body, and the therapeutically effective amount of the mRNA is an amount that produces a similar level of expression as observed in a healthy individual in an individual with aberrant expression of the protein (i.e., protein deficient individual). Suitable assays for measuring the expression of an mRNA or protein include, but are not limited to dot blots, Northern blots, in situ hybridization, ELISA, immunoprecipitation, enzyme function, as well as phenotypic assays known to those of skill in the art. The term “encode” as used herein refers to the product specified (e.g., protein and RNA) by a given sequence of nucleotides in a nucleic acid (i.e., DNA and / or RNA), upon transcription or translation of the DNA or RNA, respectively. In certain embodiments, the term “encode” refers to the RNA sequence specified by transcription of a DNA sequence. In certain embodiments, the term “encode” refers to the amino acid sequence (e.g., polypeptide or protein) specified by translation of mRNA. In certain embodiments, the term “encode” refers to the amino acid sequence specified by transcription of DNA to mRNA and subsequent translation of the mRNA encoded by the DNA sequence. In certain embodiments, - 18 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 the encoded product may comprise a direct transcription or translation product. In certain embodiments, the encoded product may comprise post-translational modifications understood or reasonably expected by one skilled in the art. The term “fully encapsulated” indicates that the active agent or therapeutic agent in the lipid particle is not significantly degraded after exposure to serum or a nuclease or protease assay that would significantly degrade free DNA, RNA, or protein. In a fully encapsulated system, preferably less than about 25% of the active agent or therapeutic agent in the particle is degraded in a treatment that would normally degrade 100% of free active agent or therapeutic agent, more preferably less than about 10%, and most preferably less than about 5% of the active agent or therapeutic agent in the particle is degraded. In the context of nucleic acid therapeutic agents, full encapsulation may be determined by an OLIGREEN® assay. OLIGREEN® is an ultra-sensitive fluorescent nucleic acid stain for quantitating oligonucleotides and single-stranded DNA in solution (available from Invitrogen Corporation; Carlsbad, Calif.). RiboGreen is an ultra-sensitive fluorescent nucleic acid stain for quantitating RNA in solution. “Fully encapsulated” also indicates that the lipid particles are serum stable, that is, that they do not rapidly decompose into their component parts upon in vivo administration. The terms “halo,” “halogen,” or “halide” group, as used herein, by themselves or as part of another substituent, mean, unless otherwise stated, a fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine atom. The term “haloalkyl” group, as used herein, includes mono-halo alkyl groups, poly- halo alkyl groups wherein all halo atoms can be the same or different, and per-halo alkyl groups, wherein all hydrogen atoms are replaced by halogen atoms, such as fluoro.

Heterocyclyl groups include, but are not limited to, pyrrolidinyl, piperidinyl, piperazinyl, morpholinyl, pyrrolyl, pyrazolyl, triazolyl, tetrazolyl, oxazolyl, isoxazolyl, thiazolyl, pyridinyl, thiophenyl, benzothiophenyl, benzofuranyl, dihydrobenzofuranyl, indolyl, dihydroindolyl, azaindolyl, indazolyl, benzimidazolyl, azabenzimidazolyl, benzoxazolyl, benzothiazolyl, benzothiadiazolyl, imidazopyridinyl, isoxazolopyridinyl, thianaphthalenyl, purinyl, xanthinyl, adeninyl, guaninyl, quinolinyl, isoquinolinyl, tetrahydroquinolinyl, quinoxalinyl, and quinazolinyl groups. Representative substituted heterocyclyl groups can be mono-substituted or substituted more than once, such as, but not limited to, piperidinyl or quinolinyl groups, which are 2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, or 6- substituted, or disubstituted with groups such as those listed herein. The term “hydrocarbon” or “hydrocarbyl” as used herein refers to a molecule or functional group that includes carbon and hydrogen atoms. The term can also refer to a molecule or functional group that normally includes both carbon and hydrogen atoms but wherein all the hydrogen atoms are substituted with other functional groups. As used herein, the term “hydrocarbyl” refers to a functional group derived from a straight chain, branched, or cyclic hydrocarbon, and can be alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, acyl, or any combination thereof. Hydrocarbyl groups can be shown as (Ca- Cb)hydrocarbyl, wherein a and b are integers and mean having any of a to b number of carbon - 22 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 atoms. For example, (C1-C4)hydrocarbyl means the hydrocarbyl group can be methyl (C1), ethyl (C2), propyl (C3), or butyl (C4), and (C0-Cb)hydrocarbyl means in certain embodiments there is no hydrocarbyl group. The term “independently selected from” as used herein refers to referenced groups being the same, different, or a mixture thereof, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Thus, under this definition, the phrase “X1, X2, and X3are independently selected from noble gases” would include the scenario where, for example, X1, X2, and X3are all the same, where X1, X2, and X3are all different, where X1and X2are the same but X3is different, and other analogous permutations. The term “ionizable lipid” as used herein refers to a lipid (e.g., a cationic lipid) or lipidoid 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 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. The term “local delivery,” as used herein, refers to delivery of an active agent or therapeutic agent such as a messenger RNA directly to a target site within an organism. For example, an agent can be locally delivered by direct injection into a disease site such as a tumor or other target site such as a site of inflammation or a target organ such as the liver, heart, pancreas, kidney, and the like. The term “lipid” refers to a group of organic compounds that include, but are not limited to, esters of fatty acids and are characterized by being insoluble in water, but soluble in many organic solvents. They 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. As used herein, “lipid encapsulated” can refer to a lipid particle that provides an active agent or therapeutic agent, such as a nucleic acid (e.g., a protein cargo), with full encapsulation, partial encapsulation, or both. In a preferred embodiment, the nucleic acid is fully encapsulated in the lipid particle (e.g., to form an SPLP, pSPLP, SNALP, or other nucleic acid-lipid particle). The term “lipid nanoparticle” refers to a particle having at least one dimension on the - 23 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 order of nanometers (e.g., 1-1,000 nm) which includes one or more lipids and / or additional agents. The term “lipid particle” is used herein to refer to a lipid formulation that can be used to deliver an active agent or therapeutic agent, such as a nucleic acid (e.g., mRNA), to a target site of interest. In the lipid particle of the disclosure, which is typically formed from a cationic lipid, a non-cationic lipid, and a conjugated lipid that prevents aggregation of the particle, the active agent or therapeutic agent may be encapsulated in the lipid, thereby protecting the agent from enzymatic degradation. The term “monovalent” as used herein refers to a substituent connecting via a single bond to a substituted molecule. When a substituent is monovalent, such as, for example, F or Cl, it is bonded to the atom it is substituting by a single bond. The term “mRNA” or “messenger RNA” as used herein refers to a ribonucleic acid sequences which encodes a peptide or protein. In certain embodiments, the mRNA may comprise a “transcript” that is produced by using a DNA template and encodes a peptide or protein. Typically, mRNA comprises 5’-UTR, protein coding region and 3’-UTR. mRNA can be produced by in vitro transcription from a DNA template. Methods of in vitro transcription are known to those of skill in the art. For example, various in vitro transfer kits are commercially available. According to the present invention, mRNA can be modified by further stabilizing modifications and cap formation in addition to the modifications according to the invention. The term “neutral lipid” or “helper lipid” refers to any of a number of lipid species that exist either in an uncharged or neutral zwitterionic form at a selected pH. At physiological pH, such lipids include, for example, diacylphosphatidylcholine, diacylphosphatidylethanolamine, ceramide, sphingomyelin, cephalin, cholesterol, cerebrosides, and diacylglycerols. The term “non-cationic lipid” refers to any amphipathic lipid as well as any other neutral lipid or anionic lipid. The term “nucleic acid” as used herein refers to a polymer containing at least two deoxyribonucleotides or ribonucleotides in either single- or double-stranded form and includes DNA and RNA. DNA may be in the form of, e.g., antisense molecules, plasmid DNA, pre-condensed DNA, a PCR product, vectors (Pl, PAC, BAC, YAC, artificial chromosomes), expression cassettes, chimeric sequences, chromosomal DNA, or derivatives and combinations of these groups. RNA may be in the form of siRNA, asymmetrical interfering RNA (aiRNA), microRNA (miRNA), mRNA, tRNA, rRNA, tRNA, viral RNA - 24 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 (vRNA), and combinations thereof. Nucleic acids include nucleic acids containing known nucleotide analogs or modified backbone residues or linkages, which are synthetic, naturally occurring, and non-naturally occurring, and which have similar binding properties as the reference nucleic acid. Examples of such analogs include, without limitation, phosphorothioates, phosphoramidates, methyl phosphonates, chiral-methyl phosphonates, 2’- O-methyl ribonucleotides, and peptide-nucleic acids (PNAs). Unless specifically limited, the term encompasses nucleic acids containing known analogues of natural nucleotides that have similar binding properties as the reference nucleic acid. Unless otherwise indicated, a particular nucleic acid sequence also implicitly encompasses conservatively modified variants thereof (e.g., degenerate codon substitutions), alleles, orthologs, SNPs, and complementary sequences as well as the sequence explicitly indicated. Specifically, degenerate codon substitutions may be achieved by generating sequences in which the third position of one or more selected (or all) codons is substituted with mixed-base and / or deoxyinosine residues (Batzer et al., Nucleic Acid Res., 19:5081 (1991); Ohtsuka et al., J. Biol. Chem., 260:2605-2608 (1985); Rossolini et al., Mal. Cell. Probes, 8:91-98 (1994)). “Nucleotides” contain a sugar deoxyribose (DNA) or ribose (RNA), a base, and a phosphate group. Nucleotides are linked together through the phosphate groups. “Bases” include purines and pyrimidines, which further include natural compounds adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine, uracil, inosine, and natural analogs, and synthetic derivatives of purines and pyrimidines, which include, but are not limited to, modifications which place new reactive groups such as, but not limited to, amines, alcohols, thiols, carboxylates, and alkyl halides. Unless otherwise indicated, a particular nucleic acid sequence also implicitly encompasses conservatively modified variants thereof (e.g., degenerate codon substitutions), alleles, orthologs, SNPs, and complementary sequences as well as the sequence explicitly indicated. Specifically, degenerate codon substitutions may be achieved by generating sequences in which the third position of one or more selected (or all) codons is substituted with mixed-base and / or deoxyinosine residues (Batzer et al., Nucleic Acid Res., 19:5081 (1991); Ohtsuka et al., J. Biol. Chem., 260:2605-2608 (1985); Rossolini et al., Mol. Cell. Probes, 8:91-98 (1994)). The terms “patient,” “subject,” or “individual” are used interchangeably herein, and refer to any animal, or cells thereof whether in vitro or in situ, amenable to the methods described herein. In a non-limiting embodiment, the patient, subject or individual is a human. As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to a material, such as a - 25 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 carrier or diluent, which does not abrogate the biological activity or properties of the compound, and is relatively non-toxic, i.e., the material may be administered to an individual without causing undesirable biological effects or interacting in a deleterious manner with any of the components of the composition in which it is contained. As used herein, the language “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to a salt of the administered compounds prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acids or bases, including inorganic acids or bases, organic acids or bases, solvates, hydrates, or clathrates thereof. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts may be prepared from an inorganic acid or from an organic acid. Examples of inorganic acids include hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydriodic, nitric, carbonic, sulfuric (including sulfate and hydrogen sulfate), and phosphoric acids (including hydrogen phosphate and dihydrogen phosphate). Appropriate organic acids may be selected from aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, araliphatic, heterocyclic, carboxylic and sulfonic classes of organic acids, examples of which include formic, acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, gluconic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, glucuronic, maleic, malonic, saccharin, fumaric, pyruvic, aspartic, glutamic, benzoic, anthranilic, 4-hydroxybenzoic, phenylacetic, mandelic, embonic (pamoic), methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, pantothenic, trifluoromethanesulfonic, 2- hydroxyethanesulfonic, p-toluenesulfonic, sulfanilic, cyclohexylaminosulfonic, stearic, alginic, β-hydroxybutyric, salicylic, galactaric and galacturonic acid. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts of compounds described herein include, for example, ammonium salts, metallic salts including alkali metal, alkaline earth metal and transition metal salts such as, for example, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts also include organic salts made from basic amines such as, for example, N,N’-dibenzylethylene-diamine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, meglumine (N-methylglucamine) and procaine. All of these salts may be prepared from the corresponding compound by reacting, for example, the appropriate acid or base with the compound. As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” or “pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” means a pharmaceutically acceptable material, composition or carrier, such as a liquid or solid filler, stabilizer, dispersing agent, suspending agent, diluent, excipient, thickening agent, solvent or encapsulating material, involved in carrying or transporting a compound described herein within or to the patient such that it may perform its intended function. Typically, such compounds are carried or transported from one organ, or - 26 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 portion of the body, to another organ, or portion of the body. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation, including the compound(s) described herein, and not injurious to the patient. Some examples of materials that may serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include: sugars, such as lactose, glucose and sucrose; starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose, and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and cellulose acetate; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients, such as cocoa butter and suppository waxes; oils, such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil; glycols, such as propylene glycol; polyols, such as glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol and polyethylene glycol; esters, such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents, such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; surface active agents; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; Ringer’s solution; ethyl alcohol; phosphate buffer solutions; and other non-toxic compatible substances employed in pharmaceutical formulations. As used herein, “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” also includes any and all coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, and absorption delaying agents, and the like that are compatible with the activity of the compound(s) described herein, and are physiologically acceptable to the patient. Supplementary active compounds may also be incorporated into the compositions. The “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” may further include a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound(s) described herein. Other additional ingredients that may be included in the pharmaceutical compositions used with the methods or compounds described herein are known in the art and described, for example in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences (Genaro, Ed., Mack Publishing Co., 1985, Easton, PA), which is incorporated herein by reference. The terms “peptide,” “polypeptide,” and “protein” are used interchangeably herein, and refer to a compound comprised of amino acid residues covalently linked by peptide bonds. A protein or peptide must contain at least two amino acids, and no limitation is placed on the maximum number of amino acids that can comprise a protein’s or peptide’s sequence. Polypeptides include any peptide or protein comprising two or more amino acids joined to each other by peptide bonds. As used herein, the term refers to both short chains, which also commonly are referred to in the art as peptides, oligopeptides and oligomers, for example, and to longer chains, which generally are referred to in the art as proteins, of which there are many types. “Polypeptides” include, for example, biologically active fragments, substantially homologous polypeptides, oligopeptides, homodimers, heterodimers, variants of polypeptides, modified polypeptides, derivatives, analogs, fusion proteins, among others. The - 27 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 polypeptides include natural peptides, recombinant peptides, synthetic peptides, or a combination thereof. The terms “polymer-conjugated lipid” and “conjugated lipid” are used interchangeably herein to refer to a lipid which is conjugated to one or more polymeric groups, which inhibits aggregation of lipid particles. Such lipid conjugates include, but are not limited to, polyamide oligomers (e.g., ATTA-lipid conjugates), PEG-lipid conjugates, such as PEG coupled to dialkyloxypropyls, PEG coupled to diacylglycerols, PEG coupled to cholesterol, PEG coupled to phosphatidylethanolamines, PEG conjugated to ceramides (e.g., U.S. Pat. No.5,885,613, the disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes), cationic PEG lipids, and mixtures thereof. PEG can be conjugated directly to the lipid or may be linked to the lipid via a linker moiety. Any linker moiety suitable for coupling the PEG to a lipid can be used including, e.g., non-ester containing linker moieties and ester-containing linker moieties. In preferred embodiments, non-ester containing linker moieties are used. By the term “specifically binds,” as used herein with respect to an antibody, is meant an antibody which recognizes a specific antigen, but does not substantially recognize or bind other molecules in a sample. For example, an antibody that specifically binds to an antigen from one species may also bind to that antigen from one or more other species. But, such cross-species reactivity does not itself alter the classification of an antibody as specific. In another example, an antibody that specifically binds to an antigen may also bind to different allelic forms of the antigen. However, such cross reactivity does not itself alter the classification of an antibody as specific. In some instances, the terms “specific binding” or “specifically binding,” can be used in reference to the interaction of an antibody, a protein, or a peptide with a second chemical species, to mean that the interaction is dependent upon the presence of a particular structure (e.g., an antigenic determinant or epitope) on the chemical species; for example, an antibody recognizes and binds to a specific protein structure rather than to proteins generally. If an antibody is specific for epitope “A”, the presence of a molecule containing epitope A (or free, unlabeled A), in a reaction containing labeled “A” and the antibody, will reduce the amount of labeled A bound to the antibody. The term “substantially” as used herein refers to a majority of, or mostly, as in at least about 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.9%, 99.99%, or at least about 99.999% or more, or 100%. The term “substantially free of” as used herein can mean having none or having a trivial amount of, such that the amount of material present does not affect the material properties of the composition including the material, such that the - 28 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 composition is about 0 wt% to about 5 wt% of the material, or about 0 wt% to about 1 wt%, or about 5 wt% or less, or less than, equal to, or greater than about 4.5 wt%, 4, 3.5, 3, 2.5, 2, 1.5, 1, 0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0.01, or about 0.001 wt% or less. The term “substantially free of” can mean having a trivial amount of, such that a composition is about 0 wt% to about 5 wt% of the material, or about 0 wt% to about 1 wt%, or about 5 wt% or less, or less than, equal to, or greater than about 4.5 wt%, 4, 3.5, 3, 2.5, 2, 1.5, 1, 0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0.01, or about 0.001 wt% or less, or about 0 wt%. The term “does not substantially,” when used in conjunction with a process or event indicates that the process or event does not occur or occurs in a trivial amount, such that the process or event occurs about 0% or less than about 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, or about 5.0% of the maximal amount that the process or event could occur. The term “substituted” as used herein in conjunction with a molecule or an organic group as defined herein refers to the state in which one or more hydrogen atoms contained therein are replaced by one or more non-hydrogen atoms. The term “functional group” or “substituent” as used herein refers to a group that can be or is substituted onto a molecule or onto an organic group. Examples of substituents or functional groups include, but are not limited to, a halogen (e.g., F, Cl, Br, and I); an oxygen atom in groups such as hydroxy groups, alkoxy groups, aryloxy groups, aralkyloxy groups, oxo(carbonyl) groups, carboxyl groups including carboxylic acids, carboxylates, and carboxylate esters; a sulfur atom in groups such as thiol groups, alkyl and aryl sulfide groups, sulfoxide groups, sulfone groups, sulfonyl groups, and sulfonamide groups; a nitrogen atom in groups such as amines, hydroxyamines, nitriles, nitro groups, N-oxides, hydrazides, azides, and enamines; and other heteroatoms in various other groups. Non-limiting examples of substituents that can be bonded to a substituted carbon (or other) atom include F, Cl, Br, I, OR, OC(O)N(R)2, CN, NO, NO2, ONO2, azido, CF3, OCF3, R, O (oxo), S (thiono), C(O), S(O), methylenedioxy, ethylenedioxy, N(R)2, SR, SOR, SO2R, SO2N(R)2, SO3R, C(O)R, C(O)C(O)R, C(O)CH2C(O)R, C(S)R, C(O)OR, OC(O)R, C(O)N(R)2, OC(O)N(R)2, C(S)N(R)2, (CH2)0-2N(R)C(O)R, (CH2)0-2N(R)N(R)2, N(R)N(R)C(O)R, N(R)N(R)C(O)OR, N(R)N(R)CON(R)2, N(R)SO2R, N(R)SO2N(R)2, N(R)C(O)OR, N(R)C(O)R, N(R)C(S)R, N(R)C(O)N(R)2, N(R)C(S)N(R)2, N(COR)COR, N(OR)R, C(=NH)N(R)2, C(O)N(OR)R, and C(=NOR)R, wherein R can be hydrogen or a carbon-based moiety; for example, R can be hydrogen, (C1- C100) hydrocarbyl, alkyl, acyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, aralkyl, heterocyclyl, heteroaryl, or heteroarylalkyl; or wherein two R groups bonded to a nitrogen atom or to adjacent nitrogen atoms can together with the nitrogen atom or atoms form a heterocyclyl. - 29 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 A “therapeutic” treatment is a treatment administered to a subject who exhibits signs of pathology, for the purpose of diminishing or eliminating those signs. The term “therapeutic cargo” as used herein refers to any molecule (e.g., small molecules and macromolecules) or compound that provides a therapeutic or functional benefit to the targeted cell or tissue when delivered. The term “therapeutic protein” as used herein refers to a protein or peptide which has a positive or advantageous effect on a condition or disease state of a subject when provided to the subject in a therapeutically effective amount. In some embodiments, a therapeutic protein or peptide has curative or palliative properties and may be administered to ameliorate, relieve, alleviate, reverse, delay onset of or lessen the severity of one or more symptoms of a disease or disorder. A therapeutic protein or peptide may have prophylactic properties and may be used to delay the onset of a disease or to lessen the severity of such disease or pathological condition. The term “therapeutic protein” includes entire proteins or peptides, and can also refer to therapeutically active fragments thereof. It can also include therapeutically active variants of a protein.

In certain embodiments, the composition of the disclosure is formulated for use as a vaccine. In certain embodiments, the composition further comprises at least one adjuvant. Such a pharmaceutical composition may consist of at least one composition of the invention, in a form suitable for administration to a subject, or the pharmaceutical composition may comprise at least one composition, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, one or more additional ingredients, or any combinations of these. At least one composition of the invention may be present in the pharmaceutical composition in the form of a physiologically acceptable salt, such as in combination with a physiologically acceptable cation or anion, as is well known in the art. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions useful for practicing the method of the invention may be administered to deliver a dose of between 1 ng / kg / day and 100 mg / kg / day. In other embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions useful for practicing the invention may be administered to deliver a dose of between 1 ng / kg / day and 1,000 mg / kg / day. The relative amounts of the active ingredient, the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and any additional ingredients in a pharmaceutical composition of the invention will vary, depending upon the identity, size, and condition of the subject treated and further depending upon the route by which the composition is to be administered. By way of example, the - 94 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 composition may comprise between 0.1% and 100% (w / w) active ingredient. Pharmaceutical compositions that are useful in the methods of the invention may be suitably developed for nasal, inhalational, oral, rectal, vaginal, pleural, peritoneal, parenteral, topical, transdermal, pulmonary, intranasal, buccal, ophthalmic, epidural, intrathecal, intravenous, or another route of administration. A composition useful within the methods of the invention may be directly administered to the brain, the brainstem, or any other part of the central nervous system of a mammal or bird. Other contemplated formulations include projected nanoparticles, microspheres, liposomal preparations, coated particles, polymer conjugates, resealed erythrocytes containing the active ingredient, and immunologically- based formulations. In certain embodiments, the compositions of the invention are part of a pharmaceutical matrix, which allows for manipulation of insoluble materials and improvement of the bioavailability thereof, development of controlled or sustained release products, and generation of homogeneous compositions. By way of example, a pharmaceutical matrix may be prepared using hot melt extrusion, solid solutions, solid dispersions, size reduction technologies, molecular complexes (e.g., cyclodextrins, and others), microparticulate, and particle and formulation coating processes. Amorphous or crystalline phases may be used in such processes. The route(s) of administration will be readily apparent to the skilled artisan and will depend upon any number of factors including the type and severity of the disease being treated, the type and age of the veterinary or human patient being treated, and the like. The formulations of the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be prepared by any method known or hereafter developed in the art of pharmacology and pharmaceutics. In general, such preparatory methods include the step of bringing the active ingredient into association with a carrier or one or more other accessory ingredients, and then, if necessary or desirable, shaping or packaging the product into a desired single-dose or multi-dose unit. As used herein, a “unit dose” is a discrete amount of the pharmaceutical composition comprising a predetermined amount of the active ingredient. The amount of the active ingredient is generally equal to the dosage of the active ingredient that would be administered to a subject or a convenient fraction of such a dosage such as, for example, one-half or one- third of such a dosage. The unit dosage form may be for a single daily dose or one of multiple daily doses (e.g., about 1 to 4 or more times per day). When multiple daily doses are used, the unit dosage form may be the same or different for each dose. - 95 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 Although the descriptions of pharmaceutical compositions provided herein are principally directed to pharmaceutical compositions suitable for ethical administration to humans, it will be understood by the skilled artisan that such compositions are generally suitable for administration to animals of all sorts. Modification of pharmaceutical compositions suitable for administration to humans in order to render the compositions suitable for administration to various animals is well understood, and the ordinarily skilled veterinary pharmacologist can design and perform such modification with merely ordinary, if any, experimentation. Subjects to which administration of the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention is contemplated include, but are not limited to, humans and other primates, mammals including commercially relevant mammals such as cattle, pigs, horses, sheep, cats, and dogs. In certain embodiments, the compositions of the invention are formulated using one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients or carriers. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention comprise a therapeutically effective amount of at least one compound of the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, which are useful, include, but are not limited to, glycerol, water, saline, ethanol, recombinant human albumin (e.g., RECOMBUMIN®), solubilized gelatins (e.g., GELOFUSINE®), and other pharmaceutically acceptable salt solutions such as phosphates and salts of organic acids. Examples of these and other pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are described in Remington’s Pharmaceutical Sciences (1991, Mack Publication Co., New Jersey). The carrier may be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), recombinant human albumin, solubilized gelatins, suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils. The proper fluidity may be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of dispersion and by the use of surfactants. Prevention of the action of microorganisms may be achieved by various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, ascorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. In many cases, isotonic agents, for example, sugars, sodium chloride, or polyalcohols such as mannitol and sorbitol, are included in the composition. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions may be brought about by including in the composition an agent that delays absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate or gelatin. Formulations may be employed in admixtures with conventional excipients, i.e., - 96 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 pharmaceutically acceptable organic or inorganic carrier substances suitable for oral, parenteral, nasal, inhalational, intravenous, subcutaneous, transdermal enteral, or any other suitable mode of administration, known to the art. The pharmaceutical preparations may be sterilized and if desired mixed with auxiliary agents, e.g., lubricants, preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, salts for influencing osmotic pressure buffers, coloring, flavoring, and / or fragrance-conferring substances and the like. They may also be combined where desired with other active agents, e.g., other analgesic, anxiolytics or hypnotic agents. As used herein, “additional ingredients” include, but are not limited to, one or more ingredients that may be used as a pharmaceutical carrier. The composition of the invention may comprise a preservative from about 0.005% to 2.0% by total weight of the composition. The preservative is used to prevent spoilage in the case of exposure to contaminants in the environment. Examples of preservatives useful in accordance with the invention include but are not limited to those selected from the group consisting of benzyl alcohol, sorbic acid, parabens, imidurea and any combinations thereof. One such preservative is a combination of about 0.5% to 2.0% benzyl alcohol and 0.05-0.5% sorbic acid. The composition may include an antioxidant and a chelating agent that inhibit the degradation of the compound. Antioxidants for some compounds are BHT, BHA, alpha- tocopherol and ascorbic acid in the exemplary range of about 0.01% to 0.3%, or BHT in the range of 0.03% to 0.1% by weight by total weight of the composition. The chelating agent may be present in an amount of from 0.01% to 0.5% by weight by total weight of the composition. Exemplary chelating agents include edetate salts (e.g. disodium edetate) and citric acid in the weight range of about 0.01% to 0.20%, or in the range of 0.02% to 0.10% by weight by total weight of the composition. The chelating agent is useful for chelating metal ions in the composition that may be detrimental to the shelf life of the formulation. While BHT and disodium edetate are exemplary antioxidant and chelating agent, respectively, for some compounds, other suitable and equivalent antioxidants and chelating agents may be substituted therefore as would be known to those skilled in the art. Liquid suspensions may be prepared using conventional methods to achieve suspension of the active ingredient in an aqueous or oily vehicle. Aqueous vehicles include, for example, water, and isotonic saline. Oily vehicles include, for example, almond oil, oily esters, ethyl alcohol, vegetable oils such as arachis, olive, sesame, or coconut oil, fractionated vegetable oils, and mineral oils such as liquid paraffin. Liquid suspensions may further comprise one or more additional ingredients including, but not limited to, suspending agents, - 97 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 dispersing or wetting agents, emulsifying agents, demulcents, preservatives, buffers, salts, flavorings, coloring agents, and sweetening agents. Oily suspensions may further comprise a thickening agent. Known suspending agents include, but are not limited to, sorbitol syrup, hydrogenated edible fats, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, gum tragacanth, gum acacia, and cellulose derivatives such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose. Known dispersing or wetting agents include, but are not limited to, naturally-occurring phosphatides such as lecithin, condensation products of an alkylene oxide with a fatty acid, with a long chain aliphatic alcohol, with a partial ester derived from a fatty acid and a hexitol, or with a partial ester derived from a fatty acid and a hexitol anhydride (e.g., polyoxyethylene stearate, heptadecaethyleneoxycetanol, polyoxyethylene sorbitol monooleate, and polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate, respectively). Known emulsifying agents include, but are not limited to, lecithin, acacia, and ionic or non-ionic surfactants. Known preservatives include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, or n-propyl para-hydroxybenzoates, ascorbic acid, and sorbic acid. Known sweetening agents include, for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, sorbitol, sucrose, and saccharin. Liquid solutions of the active ingredient in aqueous or oily solvents may be prepared in substantially the same manner as liquid suspensions, the primary difference being that the active ingredient is dissolved, rather than suspended in the solvent. As used herein, an “oily” liquid is one which comprises a carbon-containing liquid molecule and which exhibits a less polar character than water. Liquid solutions of the pharmaceutical composition of the invention may comprise each of the components described with regard to liquid suspensions, it being understood that suspending agents will not necessarily aid dissolution of the active ingredient in the solvent. Aqueous solvents include, for example, water, and isotonic saline. Oily solvents include, for example, almond oil, oily esters, ethyl alcohol, vegetable oils such as arachis, olive, sesame, or coconut oil, fractionated vegetable oils, and mineral oils such as liquid paraffin. A pharmaceutical composition of the invention may also be prepared, packaged, or sold in the form of oil-in-water emulsion or a water-in-oil emulsion. The oily phase may be a vegetable oil such as olive or arachis oil, a mineral oil such as liquid paraffin, or a combination of these. Such compositions may further comprise one or more emulsifying agents such as naturally occurring gums such as gum acacia or gum tragacanth, naturally- occurring phosphatides such as soybean or lecithin phosphatide, esters or partial esters derived from combinations of fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides such as sorbitan monooleate, and condensation products of such partial esters with ethylene oxide such as polyoxyethylene - 98 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 sorbitan monooleate. These emulsions may also contain additional ingredients including, for example, sweetening or flavoring agents. Methods for impregnating or coating a material with a chemical composition are known in the art, and include, but are not limited to methods of depositing or binding a chemical composition onto a surface, methods of incorporating a chemical composition into the structure of a material during the synthesis of the material (i.e., such as with a physiologically degradable material), and methods of absorbing an aqueous or oily solution or suspension into an absorbent material, with or without subsequent drying. Methods for mixing components include physical milling, the use of pellets in solid and suspension formulations and mixing in a transdermal patch, as known to those skilled in the art. Administration / Dosing The regimen of administration may affect what constitutes an effective amount. The therapeutic formulations may be administered to the patient either prior to or after the onset of a disease or disorder. Further, several divided dosages, as well as staggered dosages may be administered daily or sequentially, or the dose may be continuously infused, or may be a bolus injection. Further, the dosages of the therapeutic formulations may be proportionally increased or decreased as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic or prophylactic situation. Administration of the compositions of the present disclosure to a patient, such as a mammal, such as a human, may be carried out using known procedures, at dosages and for periods of time effective to treat a disease or disorder contemplated herein. An effective amount of therapeutic (i.e., composition) necessary to achieve a therapeutic effect may vary according to factors such as the activity of the particular therapeutic employed; the time of administration; the rate of excretion of the composition; the duration of the treatment; other drugs, compounds or materials used in combination with the composition; the state of the disease or disorder, age, sex, weight, condition, general health and prior medical history of the patient being treated, and like factors well-known in the medical arts. Dosage regimens may be adjusted to provide the optimum therapeutic response. For example, several divided doses may be administered daily or the dose may be proportionally reduced as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic situation. A non-limiting example of an effective dose range for a therapeutic composition of the disclosure is from about 0.01 mg / kg to 100 mg / kg of body weight / per day of active agent (i.e., nucleic acid). One of ordinary skill in the art would be able to study the relevant factors and make the determination regarding the effective - 99 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 amount of the therapeutic composition without undue experimentation. The composition may be administered to an animal as frequently as several times daily, or it may be administered less frequently, such as once a day, once a week, once every two weeks, once a month, or even less frequently, such as once every several months or even once a year or less. It is understood that the amount of composition dosed per day may be administered, in non-limiting examples, every day, every other day, every 2 days, every 3 days, every 4 days, or every 5 days. For example, with every other day administration, a 5 mg per day dose may be initiated on Monday with a first subsequent 5 mg per day dose administered on Wednesday, a second subsequent 5 mg per day dose administered on Friday, and so on. The frequency of the dose is readily apparent to the skilled artisan and depends upon a number of factors, such as, but not limited to, type and severity of the disease being treated, and type and age of the animal. Actual dosage levels of the active ingredients in the pharmaceutical compositions of this disclosure may be varied so as to obtain an amount of the active ingredient that is effective to achieve the desired therapeutic response for a particular patient, composition, and mode of administration, without being toxic to the patient. A medical doctor, e.g., physician or veterinarian, having ordinary skill in the art may readily determine and prescribe the effective amount of the pharmaceutical composition required. For example, the physician or veterinarian could start doses of the compounds of the disclosure employed in the pharmaceutical composition at levels lower than that required in order to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved. In particular embodiments, it is especially advantageous to formulate the compound in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used herein refers to physically discrete units suited as unitary dosages for the patients to be treated; each unit containing a predetermined quantity of therapeutic composition to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical vehicle. The dosage unit forms of the disclosure are dictated by and directly dependent on (a) the unique characteristics of the therapeutic composition and the particular therapeutic effect to be achieved, and (b) the limitations inherent in the art of compounding / formulating such a therapeutic composition for the treatment of a disease or disorder in a patient.

Exemplary LNPs of the disclosure were formulated according to methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art. In certain non-limiting embodiments, LNPs of the disclosure were prepared as follows: An ethanol phase containing all lipids and an aqueous phase containing mRNA, where applicable, were mixed using a microfluidic device to formulate LNPs. The ethanol phase contained the ionizable lipid or normal ionizable lipid, 1,2-dioleoyl- sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DOPE), cholesterol, and 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3- phosphoethanolamine-N- [methoxy(polyethyleneglycol)-2000] (C14PEG2K) with a fixed molar ratio of 35%, 16%, 46.5% and 2.5%, respectively. Where applicable, the aqueous phase comprised mRNA dissolved in 10 mM citrate buffer. The ethanol and aqueous phases were mixed at a flow rate of 1.8 ml / min and 0.6 ml / min (3:1) using Pump33DS syringe pumps. LNPs were dialyzed in 1x PBS using a microdialysis cassette (20,000 MWCO, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) for 2 h and then filtered through a 0.22 μm filter. Certain exemplary LNPs of the disclosure comprising aromatic ionizable lipids of the disclosure were characterized with respect to encapsulation efficiency (FIG.1A), charge (FIG.1B), hydrodynamic diameter (FIG.1C), and polydispersity index (FIG.1D). Example 3: In vitro transfection and toxicity studies utilizing LNPs of the disclosure Certain exemplary LNPs of the disclosure comprising aromatic ionizable lipids of the disclosure and luciferase mRNA were analyzed for transfection efficacy (FIG.2A) and toxicity (FIG.2B) in vitro using HepG2 cells. These studies demonstrated that the LNPs of the disclosure have minimal toxicity and provide promising transfection efficacy. Example 4: In vivo studies utilizing LNPs of the disclosure Distribution of exemplary LNPs of the disclosure comprising aromatic ionizable lipids of the disclosure was examined in C57BL / 6J mice. In certain embodiments, mice were intravenously (1 µg mRNA / mouse) or intramuscularly (2 µg mRNA / mouse) administered LNPs of the disclosure, or controls (e.g., SM-102), comprising luciferase mRNA and the distribution thereof to the liver compared to the full body was evaluated (FIGs.3A-3C). In one aspect, these experiments demonstrated that the LNPs of the disclosure perform in a manner greater than or equal to SM-102, while minimizing delivery to the liver. Additionally, distribution of LNPs of the disclosure, as compared to controls (e.g., SM-102), to the inguinal and iliac lymph nodes was examined (FIGs.4A-4C). In another, aspect, these experiments demonstrated that the LNPs of the disclosure perform better than LNPs comprising non- aromatic ionizable lipids in transfecting lymph nodes and / or perform comparably to SM-102 - 117 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 in this regard (see also FIGs.5A-5C). Additionally, the LNPs of the disclosure comprising aromatic ionizable lipids appear to be less liver-tropic than SM-102, yet exhibit similar lymphatic tropism (FIGs.6A-6C). Example 5: Therapeutic application – delivery of SARS-CoV-2 RBD mRNA The disclosure further describes an exemplary therapeutic application of the LNPs of the disclosure. In one non-limiting embodiment, a dosing scheme for a COVID vaccination was designed utilizing C57BL / 6J mice (FIG.7). In certain embodiments, mice are primed on day 0 (D0), administered a second dose (boost) on day 21 (D21) and sacrificed on day 40 (D40). Additionally, samples were collected periodically throughout the dosing regime. Mice were administered either 1 µg or 5 µg of COVID receptor-binding domain (RBD) mRNA, wherein the mRNA was encapsulated in an LNP (e.g., SM-102, C8mPhE-383, or C6pPhE- 383). Three (3) weeks post-boost, COVID RBD IgG antibody titers in mice administered certain LNPs of the disclosure were measured and found to be comparable to those observed with administration of the comparator or control LNP (i.e., SM-102 LNP) (FIG.8). Further, substantial toxicity was not observed with administration of the LNPs of the disclosure encapsulating RBD mRNA. Thus, in one aspect, the experiments described herein demonstrate the utility of the LNPs described herein for mRNA delivery, for uses including, but not limited to, vaccination (e.g., COVID vaccination).

Synthesis of ionizable lipids The crosslinked ionizable lipids were prepared through a one-pot, two-step synthesis. For crosslinking the amine compounds, the linkers and amines were mixed at a molar ratio of 1:1.1 between the imidoester functional group and primary amine group. (0.25 mmol, 5 equiv.) were dissolved in ethanol and 3,3'-(piperazine-1,4-diyl)bis(propan-1- amine) (0.11 mmol, 2.2 equiv.) was added and stirred for 2 h at r.t. Next, the crosslinked amine cores were reacted with excess epoxide lipid tails to saturate the amines. Taking C12- 2aN as an example 1,2-Epoxydodecane (0.33 mol, 6.6 equiv.) was added to the mixture and heated at 80 °C for 48 h. The volatiles were removed under vacuum and the crude product was used for the initial library screening. C12-N and C12-2aN were further purified using the CombiFlash NextGen 300+ chromatography system (Teledyne ISCO) with gradient elution from dichloromethane to 80:20 dicholoromethane / methanol. The products were isolated as a clear oil with 67.2 % and 53.7 % yield, respectively. For lipid characterization, LC-MS was performed using a Waters Acquity LCMS system equipped with UV-Vis and MS detectors (calculated MS of C12-N, 937.62; found [M + 2H]2+, 469.76, calculated MS of C12-2aN, 1246.10; found [M + H]+, 1247.52). Example 7: Imidoester crosslinkers enables the high-throughput synthesis of ionizable lipids for mRNA delivery to BMDCs - 129 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 Using rapid and straightforward conjugation chemistry, 2-arm (2a), 3-arm (3a), or 4- arm (4a) imidoester crosslinkers and amine groups in the amine compounds were reacted to create various multi-amine core structures. C12 lipid tails were then attached to the remaining amine groups via an epoxide ring-opening reaction (FIG.13A). This one-pot two-step reaction was used to generate a library of novel ionizable lipids in a high throughput manner. To prepare the library, a range of amine core structures were used, including 12 linear- structured amines and 8 cyclic-structured amines (FIG.13B). To synthesize control ionizable lipids, the corresponding amines were directly conjugated with C12 lipid tails under the same reaction conditions, but without the crosslinkers. The ionizable lipids were then combined with DOPE, cholesterol, and C14-PEG and formulated into LNPs containing luciferase mRNA (mLuc) for screening in bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) (FIG.13C). The reporter mRNA-based screening results revealed that the crosslinked ionizable lipids improved mRNA transfection in BMDCs (FIG.13D and FIG.14B). Notably, the groups treated with 2a linker-based LNPs showed a significant increase in mRNA expression across the amine compounds compared to the control LNP-treated groups. With the 2a linker, LNPs with 16 out of the 20 amine cores showed improved luminescence intensity (FIG. 14C). Notably, the 2a-based LNP-treated groups based on amine J and amine N, the respective top-performing amine cores for linear and circular amine structures, facilitated 7.31- and 21.7-fold higher mRNA expression level compared to the groups treated with corresponding control LNPs (FIG.14D). On the other hand, there were four amine cores (E, I, L and M) which demonstrated decreased luminescence intensity in the 2a linker-based LNP-treated groups compared to the corresponding control LNP-treated groups (FIGs.14E-14F). These amine cores share the common characteristic of not having any primary amine groups remaining after the conjugation reaction with imidoester. The attachment of only one lipid tail to the remaining secondary amine group of each core was found to be insufficient, indicating that the conjugation of multiple lipid tails to the primary amine groups of amine cores is an important factor for effective mRNA transfection. Through the in vtiro screening, C12-2aN, an ionizable lipid with crosslinked amine N and 2a linker, was selected as the top-performer due to its highest mRNA transfection efficiency. Example 8: Incorporation of crosslinkers affects the structural and electrostatic properties of ionizable lipids for mRNA delivery Focusing on amine N, the structure of ionizable lipids according to linker type was - 130 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 examined to uncover what mechanistically enables the high transfection efficiency of C12- 2aN. Analysis of 3D structures of the ionizable lipid revealed that the incorporation of crosslinkers affects the arrangement of amine cores and has a significant impact on the conformation of lipids (FIGs.15A-15B). While C12-N has a chair conformation with an angle of 151.34° between the lipid attached amines, showing that ionizable amines are arranged horizontally, C12-2aN has a bent structure with a 48.12° angle, indicating that ionizable amines are biased to one side and protrude. C12-3aN and C12-4aN have out-of- plane bending structures with the angles of 120.74 ° and 111.06 °, respectively, showing relatively moderate bending. The linker not only affected the structural conformation of the ionizable lipid but also influenced the electrostatic properties. Since the crosslinkers introduce basic amidine functional groups, they exhibit relatively lower electrostatic potential compared to other parts of the ionizable lipid. In the molecular electrostatic potential map of C12-2aN, the bent and protruding core region showed relatively low electrostatic potential, leading to an asymmetric distribution compared to the evenly distributed electrostatic potential of C12-N. These ionizable lipid properties also affected the lipid arrangement in LNPs. Structural simulation of the complete LNPs revealed that the amine core of C12-2aN protrudes on the surface while interacting with other excipient lipids, which may strengthen the interaction between LNPs and negatively charged cell membranes (FIG.15C and FIGs. 16A-16B). As a result of the changes in structural and electrostatic properties of the ionizable lipid and its arrangement on the LNP, LNPs with different crosslinkers showed varying levels of mRNA endosomal escaped to the cytosol. Consistent with the in vitro screening results, C12-2aN showed the most efficient endosomal escape as indicated by lesser colocalization of lysotracker and Cy5-mRNA, resulting in the highest mRNA expression in BMDCs (FIG.15D and FIGs.16C-16D). Example 9: C12-2aN determined characteristics of LNP for mRNA vaccine Further investigation was conducted to determine if C12-2aNP, the lead LNP formulation based on the C12-2aN, is suitable for vaccine applications. As shown in the chemical structure, the 2a linker created two amidine groups between the ionizable piperazines in C12-2aN (FIG.17A and FIG.19A). The insertion of amidines resulted in a positive surface charge of the nanoparticle. While the C12-N-based LNP (C12-NP) showed a negative zeta potential of -11.64 ± 0.47 mV, C12-2aNP exhibited a positive zeta potential of +7.50 ± 0.57 mV (FIG.17B). The incorporation of the 2a linker also affected the pKa of the - 131 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 lipid. A TNS assay revealed that C12-2aN has a pKa of 7.12, while C12-N has a pKa of 6.19, indicating that the lipids are ionizable at different physiological pH levels (FIG.17C). On the other hand, both C12-N and C12-2aN exhibited similar characteristics in terms of particle formation. The spherical morphology filled with lipid layers at the core for both C12-NP and C12-2aNP was observed by cryo-TEM (FIG.17D). The mean particle sizes of C12-NP and C12-2aNP were 110.2 ± 2.3 nm and 92.0 ± 2.5 nm, respectively (FIG.17E). Polydispersity index (PDI) of C12-N and C12-2aNP were 0.155 ± 0.032 mV and 0.204 ± 0.038 mV, indicating that both particle size distributions are monodisperse (FIG.17F). The mRNA encapsulation efficiencies in C12-NP and C12-2aNP were 83.85 ± 1.28 % and 90.11 ± 1.13 %, respectively, indicating that mRNA is efficiently loaded during formulation of both LNPs (FIG.17G). No significant difference in in vitro toxicity was observed between C12- NP and C12-2aNP in BMDCs, where the cell viabilities were 86.66 ± 1.40 % and 88.17 ± 2.66 %, respectively (FIG.17H). After characterization, the potential for C12-2aNP to serve as an effective mRNA vaccine was evaluated in vivo by intramuscular injection. mLuc-loaded LNPs were injected into mouse thigh muscles at an mRNA dose of 0.1 mg / kg, and whole-body bioluminescence imaging was conducted at various timepoints. At 6 h, bioluminescence intensity in C12-2aNP treated mice was 3.24-fold higher than that of C12-NP (FIG.17I). Additionally, monitoring the bioluminescence over 72 h revealed that the area under curve (AUC) of mRNA expression in C12-2aNP-treated group was 3.15-fold higher than that in the C12-NP-treated group (FIGs.17J-17K) Example 10: C12-2aNP induces a metabolic switch to glycolysis in BMDCs Next, the ability of C12-2aNP to stimulate glycolysis in dendritic cells was evaluated, a switch which could lead to more potent vaccination. When BMDCs were treated with mLuc-loaded C12-2aNP, a significant decrease in the pH of the cell media was observed. After 24 h of LNP incubation, the pH of the media in the C12-2aNP-treated group dropped from 7.56 ± 0.00 to 6.52 ± 0.04, while in the untreated and C12-NP-treated groups, the pH only decreased to 7.23 ± 0.04 and 7.16 ± 0.02, respectively (FIGs.18A-18B). As the acidification of the medium is indicative of proton and lactate secretion resulting from an elevated cellular metabolic rate, the activity of central metabolic regulator mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) was further examined to investigate the underlying mechanism. Since mTOR is a protein kinase that forms two distinct protein complexes, mTORC1 and mTORC2, which are involved in two major signaling pathways for metabolic regulation, the - 132 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 phosphorylation of each downstream target protein was analyzed. Western blot analysis revealed a significant increase in the phosphorylation of Akt, a target of mTORC2, whereas the phosphorylation of S6K, a target of mTORC1, was not detected (FIGs.18C-18D and FIG. 19B). Thus, C12-2aNP likely stimulates cell metabolism through the mTORC2 signaling pathway rather than mTORC1. Next, the transcriptome of C12-2aNP-treated BMDCs was evaluated using RNA-Seq, and it was found that the expression of genes involved in glycolysis was significantly up- regulated (FIG.18E). For example, compared to the C12-NP-treated group, the C12-2aNP- treated group showed a 2.90-fold higher mRNA expression of glucose transporter-1 (Slc2a1). In addition, the expressions of hexokinase (Hk2), phosphofructokinase (Pfkl), and pyruvate kinase (Pkm), which are the key enzymes of glycolysis, were 3.03-, 2.09-, and 1.62-fold increased in the C12-2aNP-treated group compared to the C12-NP treated group. Gene set enrichment analysis of the C12-2aNP-treated group supported this finding that glycolysis genes are over-represented compared to the untreated group, showing a normalized enrichment score (NES) of 1.66 with a false discovery rate (FDR) q value of 0.042 (FIG. 18F). In contrast, the C12-2NP-treated group showed an NES of 1.21 with an FDR q value of 0.339 (FIG.19C). Additionally, glucose metabolism-related genes were found to be up- regulated by C12-2aNP through pathway enrichment analysis. In this analysis, the fold enrichment of the glycolysis pathway gene set was 3.1 with an enrichment FDR value of 6.0E-6, indicating a significant increase in glycolysis level. The pathway enrichment analysis also revealed that C12-2aNP enhances glucose metabolism-related gene expression broadly by affecting glycan, glycosaminoglycan, and other sugar-related metabolic pathways (FIG. 18G). As a result of the upregulation of glycolysis related genes, C12-2aNP-treated BMDCs exhibited elevated glycolysis rates. The C12-2aNP-treated group showed higher extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) upon glucose and oligomycin treatment than ECAR of the untreated and C12-NP (FIG.18H). Basal glycolysis of C12-2aNP was maintained significantly higher, showing 3.10-fold higher normalized ECAR than that of C12-NP-treated group (FIG.18J). Consistently, maximal glycolytic capacity of C12-2aNP-treated group was significantly enhanced, showing 1.73-fold higher normalized ECAR than that of C12-NP- treated group. On the other hand, aerobic respiration, another major energy-producing pathway related to oxidative phosphorylation, was not altered by C12-2aNP (FIG.18I). When mitochondrial respiration was assessed, the basal oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of the - 133 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 C12-2aNP-treated group remained significantly lower than that of the untreated and C12-NP- treated groups, indicating that cellular energy metabolism is directed toward glycolysis (FIG. 19D). However, there was no significant difference between the untreated and LNP-treated groups in maximal respiration upon oligomycin and FCCP treatment, indicating no change in mitochondrial function for oxidative phosphorylation. As a result, stimulation of glycolysis by C12-2aNP treatment placed BMDCs in a metabolically glycolytic state while C12-NP- treated cells remained in a metabolically aerobic state similar to untreated BMDCs (FIG. 18K). Consequently, C12-2aNP-treated BMDCs exhibited higher ATP production compared to the untreated and C12-NP-treated groups (FIG.18L). While the C12-2aNP-treated group showed a glycolytic ATP production rate of 22.5 pmol / min / 1000 cells and a mitochondrial ATP production rate of 3.8 pmol / min / 1000 cells, the untreated and C12-NP-treated group showed glycolytic ATP production rates of 14.6 and 17.2 pmol / min / 1000 cells and mitochondrial ATP production rates of 8.6 and 7.3 pmol / min / 1000, respectively. Example 11: C12-2aNP-mediated vaccination elicits a robust immune response in SARS-CoV-2 model Encouraged by the enhanced mRNA transfection and metabolic-modulating properties of C12-2aNP, its efficacy as an mRNA vaccine was evaluated in a SARS-CoV-2 model. For immunization, the mRNA encoding the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (mRBD) was loaded into LNPs and intramuscularly injected to mice. An LNP based on the ALC-0315 ionizable lipid, which was used in an FDA-approved COVID-19 mRNA vaccine, was included as a positive control. After the prime and boost injection of mRBD-loaded C12-2aNP, significant induction of humoral immune responses was detected. In blood serum, the antibody titer of anti-RBD IgG in the C12-2aNP-treated group was comparable to the titer in the ALC-0315-treated group but significantly higher than the titer in the C12-NP-treated group (FIG.20B). Consistently, the induction of antigen-specific B cells was also detected in secondary lymphoid organs. In the spleen, the population of RBD- specific B cells was significantly increased in both the ALC-0315-treated group and the C12- 2aNP-treated group. In particular, the C12-2aNP-treated group showed a 5.68-fold increase in RBD-specific B cells (FIGs.20C-20D). As both the C12-2aNP and ALC-0315-treated groups induced high levels of RBD- specific antibody production, the antibody provided a neutralization effect against SARS- CoV-2 pseudovirus infection. Incubation of the serum from the C12-2aNP or of ALC-0315- treated groups with the pseudovirus significantly interfered with the infection of hACE- - 134 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 expressing cells, whereas the serum from the C12-NP-treated group exerted a moderate level of interference (FIG.20E). The average 50 % neutralization titers of the C12-2aNP-treated group was 1.66 × 103, which was comparable to that of the ALC-0315-treated group and significantly higher than that of the C12-NP-treated group, which showed an average titer of 0.11 × 103(FIG.20F). Along with the humoral immune responses, C12-2aNP vaccination also induced robust cellular immune responses. When RBD-specific T cells in the spleen were analyzed by IFN-g ELISpot, significantly higher spot numbers were counted in the C12-2aNP- and ALC- 0315-treated groups (FIG.20G and FIG.21E). Specifically, the number of IFN-g secreting cells in the spleen of the C12-2aNP-treated group was 2.39-fold higher than that of the C12- NP-treated group, indicating a stronger cellular immune response against the RBD antigen. Likewise, intracellular cytokine analysis also revealed that higher levels of proinflammatory cytokines, IFN-g and TNF-a, were induced in CD8 T cells in the C12-2aNP-treated group compared to those in the C12-NP-treated group (FIG.20H and FIG.21A). Establishment of immunity against the RBD antigen was also visualized by immunofluorescence staining (FIG.20I). It was confirmed that C12-2aNP immunization robustly induced germinal center (GC) formation, characterized by clustered GL-7+GC B cells and CD21+follicular dendritic cells. While the spleen tissue of the C12-2aNP-treated group showed clusters of these two types of cells, indicating GC formation, the cells did not appear to be clustered together in the spleen of the C12-NP-treated group, indicating inefficient GC formation. In addition, when GC formation was quantitatively evaluated by flow cytometry, a notable induction of antigen-specific GC B cells was detected in the spleen of the C12-2aNP-treated group, significantly higher than the group treated with ALC-0315. Specifically, the population of RBD-specific GC B cells in the C12-2aN-treated group was 6.77 ± 2.27 %, which were 4.23-fold higher than that of the ALC-0315, which had a population of 1.59 ± 0.57 % (FIG.20J). Since the GC plays an important role in the establishment of immunological memory, subsequent memory immunity formation was further evaluated by flow cytometry. In the spleen of immunized mice, robust induction of RBD-specific memory B cells was confirmed in the C12-2aNP-treated group, showing a 1.45-fold higher population than that in the group treated with ALC-0315 (FIG.20K). Regarding follicular help T cells (TFH), which are specialized cells that support B cells in forming GC memory B cells, C12-2aNP- mediated vaccination induced an increase in the cell population. While C12-2aNP-and ALC-0315 showed similar levels, the population in the C12-2aNP group was 1.75-fold higher than that - 135 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 in the group treated with C12-NP (FIG.20L and FIG.21B). Furthermore, vaccination induced not only memory B cells but also memory T cells in the spleen. C12-2aNP induced the highest level of CD8+effector memory T cells (TEM) at 86.64 ± 4.62 %, which was higher than that of the ALC-0315-treated group which had 82.24 ± 2.78 % and significantly higher than that of the C12-NP treated group which had 32.88 ± 6.30 % (FIG.20M and FIG.21C). For long term memory evaluation, long-lived plasma cells in the bone marrow were analyzed 3 months after the boost injection. When the number of RBD-specific antibody- secreting cells in the bone marrow was visualized by ELISpot, a significantly higher number of spots were detected in the C12-2aNP-treated group, with 4.68- and 1.46-fold higher antibody secreting cells compared to the groups treated with C12-NP and ALC-0315, respectively (FIG.20N and FIG.21E). Altogether, C12-2aNP-mediated vaccination elicits a robust humoral and cellular immune response, including long-term memory, in the SARS- CoV-2 vaccine model. Example 12: C12-2aNP provides protection against tumors in a cancer vaccine model The efficacy of C12-2aNP as an mRNA vaccine was also evaluated in an ovalbumin (OVA) antigen-based cancer vaccine model. For the preventive vaccine model, OVA encoding mRNA (mOVA) was loaded into LNPs and intramuscularly injected to mice, followed by subcutaneous inoculation of OVA-expressing B16 melanoma (B16-OVA) cells (FIG.22A). Consistent with the results of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine model, the prime and boost injection of mOVA-loaded C12-2aNP induced robust humoral and cellular immune responses. A significantly higher level of OVA-specific antibody was induced in both ALC- 0315 and C12-2aNP groups, with the titer of C12-2aNP-treated group being significantly higher than that in group treated with C12-NP (FIG.22B). Likewise, a higher number of IFN- g-secreting cells upon OVA antigen stimulation was found in the spleen of the C12-2aNP- treated group compared to the group treated with C12-NP (FIG.22C and FIG.23A). When the population of OVA-specific CD8+T cells was analyzed by flow cytometry, a significantly higher level of the T cells was detected in the spleen of the C12-2aNP-treated group, showing 4.47- and 1.31-fold higher populations than that in C12-NP and ALC-0315-treated groups, respectively (FIG.22D-22E). The robust humoral and cellular immune responses provided the immunized mice with protection against a tumor challenge. When B16-OVA was inoculated to immunized mice, three of six mice vaccinated with C12-2aNP or ACL-0315 showed a complete response, while all of the C12-N-treated mice showed tumor growth (FIG.23B). Tumor - 136 - 53224792.3 Attorney Docket No.0466483-7483WO1 volume monitoring revealed significant tumor growth inhibition in the C12-2aNP or ALC- 0315 groups. In particular, the tumor volume of the C12-2aNP-treated group measured on day 23 was 30.3 ± 44.2 mm3, whereas for the C12-NP-treated group it was 311.9 ± 147.7 mm3(FIG.22F). The potency of C12-2aNP as a cancer vaccine was also demonstrated in a therapeutic vaccine model, where prime and boost immunizations were administered after tumor inoculation (FIG.22G). Similar to the preventive vaccine model, both the C12-2aNP and ALC-0315-treated groups induced comparable anti-tumor efficacy, which was significantly more potent than the C12-NP-treated group. Specifically, the tumor volume in the C12-2aNP- treated group was 402.66 ± 165.8 mm3, which was significantly lower than that in the C12- NP-treated group, which was 718.6 ± 333.9 mm3(FIG.22H and FIG.23C). The tumor growth inhibition led to longer survival rates. While the C12-NP-treated group showed a maximum survival time increase by up to 6 days compared to the untreated group, C12-2aNP vaccination resulted in significant extension of the maximum survival time by up to 18 days (FIG.22I). Stronger immune responses following the C12-2aNP vaccination resulted in a higher level of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Immunofluorescence staining revealed active infiltration of IFN-g expressing CD8+T cells in the tumor of the C12-2aNP-treated group. In contrast, the C12-NP-treated group not only had a lower density of infiltrating cells but also exhibited a lower expression ratio of IFN-γ (FIG.22J). Flow cytometry analysis showed that the number of CD8+T cells infiltrating the tumor in the C12-2aNP-treated group was 3.09- fold higher than that in the C12-NP-treated group (FIG.22K and FIG.23D). Additionally, the proportion of infiltrating cells expressing IFN-γ was also higher in the C12-2aNP-treated group compared to the C12-NP-treated group (FIG.22L and FIG.23E).
