Description:
TOT-5, a tri-oleoyl-Tris ionizable lipid (pKa 6.2), enables splenic B cell-targeted mRNA delivery via 15% DSPC-incorporated LNPs. Its charge-neutral, hydrophobic surface minimizes hepatic ApoE uptake and enhances complement C3 adsorption, facilitating CD21/35-mediated uptake by marginal zone B cells. In vivo, intravenous 15%DSPC-LNPs showed 8-fold higher spleen-to-liver luciferase expression vs 3%DSPC, with anti-CD21/35 blocking 60% B cell uptake. Intramuscular administration induced robust OVA-specific IgG (10^5 titer) and CTL responses (3.5% tetramer+ CD8+ T cells) while reducing hepatotoxicity (ALT/AST levels ≤40 U/L vs SM-102-LNPs' 80-120 U/L). Cryo-ET confirmed stable lamellar structures (80-100 nm, ζ-potential -2 mV). This formulation achieves safe, ligand-free splenic targeting for mRNA vaccines.
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.
