GL6 is a trivalent GalNAc-lipid conjugate designed for ASGPR-mediated hepatic delivery. It features a lysine-based scaffold covalently linked to three GalNAc moieties via a ​36-unit PEG spacer, anchored by a ​1,2-O-dioctadecyl-sn-glyceryl (DSG) lipid tail. This structure balances ligand accessibility (via optimized PEG length) and nanoparticle stability (via hydrophobic DSG anchoring). Compared to GL3 (TRIS scaffold, same PEG length), GL6’s simplified lysine scaffold improves manufacturability. In LDLR-deficient models, GL6 enabled ​61% liver editing (vs. 5% with standard LNPs) at 2 mg/kg, demonstrating superior ASGPR targeting. Its design minimizes ligand crowding (0.05 mol% surface density) while maximizing endosomal escape and durable gene editing.

Galnac Lipid 83 is developed by Prime Medicine Patent: WO2024220807.Galnac Lipid 83 83 is a GalNAc-conjugated lipid designed for targeted liver delivery. It features a triantennary GalNAc ligand linked via a PEG spacer (e.g., -(CH2CH2O)n-) to a branched hydrophobic tail (C18 alkyl chains). The structure includes amide/ester bonds for stability and a stereospecific configuration (R/S) to optimize ASGPR receptor binding. Integrated into lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), it enhances hepatic uptake of nucleic acids (e.g., mRNA, gene editors) by leveraging ASGPR-mediated endocytosis. Its design balances hydrophilicity (PEG) and lipophilicity (alkyl chains) for efficient encapsulation and in vivo delivery, supporting therapeutic applications in liver-specific gene editing or RNA therapies.

H7T4-4 is an ionizable lipid designed for mRNA delivery via lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). It features a cyclic amine headgroup (derived from cyclen tetrahydrochloride) and four C14 hydrophobic alkyl tails, synthesized through a Michael addition reaction between cyclen and 1,2-epoxytetradecane. With a high transition temperature (Tm = 58.6°C) due to strong intermolecular interactions from its cyclic headgroup and multi-tail structure, H7T4-4 alone forms rigid aggregates incompatible with mRNA encapsulation. However, when blended with low-Tm helper lipids (e.g., DOPE, Tm = -16°C), the system’s overall Tm decreases, enabling stable LNP formation. Optimized formulations (20% H7T4-4, 41% DOPE, 38% cholesterol, 1% DMG-PEG) exhibit efficient mRNA encapsulation (>90%) and transfection. Structural analyses (SAXS, cryo-TEM) confirm monodisperse LNPs with lamellar/hexagonal phases. In vivo, H7T4-4 LNPs show tumor-targeted and intranasal mRNA delivery with reduced off-target accumulation compared to SM-102-based LNPs. This rational design highlights Tm-guided helper lipid selection to overcome rigidity challenges in ionizable lipids.

C14-4 (C14-494,Lipid B-4,Lipid B4) is a novel ionizable lipid with the highest T-cell transfection efficiency and low cytotoxicity.The C14-4 ionizable lipid has been explored for CAR-T therapy.To screen the excellent formulations for mRNA delivery, a lipid library of 24 ionizable lipids was constructed to make iLNPs, which were used to deliver luciferase mRNA into Jurkat cells.[115] The optimal iLNPs formulation was C14-4 iLNPs (C14-4 ionizable lipid, DOPE, chol, and PEG at a molar ratio of 35%, 16%, 46.5%, and 2.5%) (Figure 6c). The optimal dose of luciferase mRNA for C14-4 iLNPs was 30 ng. Compared with electroporated CAR T cells, the CAR T cells engineered via C14-4 iLNPs showed potent cancer-killing activity when they were cocultured with Nalm-6 acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells. To obtain a safer and more effective CAR mRNA delivery vehicle, the orthogonal design provided 256 potential formulations, and 16 representative iLNPs formulations were evaluated.Through evaluating the safety, delivery efficiency, and transfection efficiency of 16 iLNPs, the formulation B10 (C14-4 ionizable lipid, DOPE, chol, PEG at a molar ratio of 40%, 30%, 25%, and 2.5%) was screened out as the optimal performing formulation. The luciferase expression based on B10 formulation was increased threefold than the initial formulation. Reducing the accumulation and clearance of iLNPs in the liver can increase the expression of CAR mRNA in T cells, further improving the therapeutic effect of CAR-T. Studies have shown that cholesterol analogs can alter the mechanisms of intracellular circulation and enhance the delivery of mRNA, which may be related to the reduced recognition of iLNPs by the Niemann Pick C1 (NPC1) enzyme.The addition of a hydroxyl group to various locations in the cholesterol molecule can alter the binding kinetics between the modified cholesterol and NPC1, and reduced NPC1 recognition of cholesterol. The results showed that replacement of 25% and 50% 7 α-hydroxycholesterol for cholesterol in iLNPs improved mRNA delivery to primary human T cells in vitro by 1.8-fold and twofold, respectively.C14-4 is one of the ionizable lipids to efficiently deliver mRNA to Jurkat cells or primary human T cells. It will effectively promote the development of mRNA delivery by iLNPs for CAR-T therapy.

ND-O1 (SM-86 Analog-2) is a novel ionizable lipid designed to improve the delivery of siRNA via lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for treating liver fibrosis. It is derived from SM-86 (structurally similar to SM-102, used in COVID-19 mRNA vaccines) but incorporates an ether bond within its hydrophobic tail, a first-of-its-kind modification aimed at enhancing delivery efficiency. In Vitro Efficiency: ND-O1 LNPs (LNP-O1) showed significantly higher siRNA transfection efficiency in activated fibroblasts compared to Lipid 5 LNPs (LNP-M). In Vivo Efficacy: In a CCl4-induced liver fibrosis mouse model, LNP-O1/siHSP47 (loaded with HSP47-targeting siRNA) reduced HSP47 expression by ~84%, threefold more effective than LNP-M. This led to a dramatic reduction in collagen deposition and marked improvement in liver fibrosis. Safety: The ether bond modification did not introduce additional toxicity, maintaining biocompatibility. ND-O1 represents a breakthrough in ionizable lipid design, demonstrating that strategic placement of ether bonds in hydrophobic tails can enhance LNP performance without compromising safety. Its success highlights its potential for clinical translation in RNA-based therapies for liver fibrosis and other hepatic diseases.
