Field of application
**Imidazole cholesterol ester (ICE)** is a sterol‑based ionizable cationic lipid invented by Translate‑Bio (WO2018/089790 A1) for mRNA‑loaded lipid‑nanoparticle (LNP) pulmonary delivery. It fuses an imidazole pH‑responsive headgroup with cholesterol via ester linkage. Typically formulated as a three‑component LNP (ICE : DOPE : DMG‑PEG2K = 60 : 35 : 5 mol ratio), ICE‑LNPs achieve high mRNA encapsulation (>80‑90 %), good nebulization stability and low toxicity. Upon cellular uptake, imidazole mediates endosomal escape; the ester bond degrades to yield cholesterol, conferring favorable biocompatibility. Animal studies demonstrate robust CFTR protein expression in bronchial and alveolar lung tissue after inhalation, making ICE promising for cystic‑fibrosis mRNA therapy.
