Description:
ORNA lipid 144 is a novel ionizable lipid engineered for splenic RNA delivery developed by ORNA Therapeutics, featuring a biodegradable structure with a protonatable tertiary amine headgroup and ester-linked branched C14 alkyl chains. This design enables exceptional spleen-targeting capability, demonstrated by 3-fold higher luciferase expression in the spleen compared to benchmark lipids and near-complete B-cell depletion when delivering anti-CD19 CAR circRNA. It forms highly stable lipid nanoparticles maintaining homogeneous size (60–80 nm) and low polydispersity across diverse manufacturing conditions and buffer systems. Rapid clearance from the liver and spleen minimizes off-target accumulation, while high circRNA encapsulation efficiency (>90%) and pH-dependent endosomal escape make it ideal for immunotherapies and vaccines requiring precise splenic bioavailability and sustained efficacy.
Handling:
Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance,
we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one
month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at
least 1 hour.
