SM-86
|
SM86 is a cationic, ionizable lipid developed by Moderna as a core component of its lipid nanoparticle (LNP) platform for mRNA therapeutic delivery.SM-086 is structurally optimized and analogous to SM-102 (used in Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccines), with modifications aimed at enhancing mRNA delivery efficiency and safety.SM-86 serves as the primary cationic lipid in three investigational mRNA therapies targeting rare metabolic disorders:mRNA-3927: Restores propionyl-CoA carboxylase activity in propionic acidemia (PA).
mRNA-3705: Delivers methylmalonyl-CoA mutase mRNA for methylmalonic acidemia (MMA).
mRNA-3210: Provides phenylalanine hydroxylase mRNA to treat phenylketonuria (PKU). |

Acuitas Lipid A9
|
Lipid A9 is an ionizable cationic lipid (pKa = 6.27) that has been used in the generation of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for the delivery of mRNA and siRNA in vivo. LNPs containing lipid A9 and encapsulating non-stimulatory siRNA increase plasma levels of chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2), indicating activation of the innate immune response, and decrease body weight in mice. |

ALC-0307
|
ALC 0307 is an ionizable amino lipid developed by Acuitas Therapeutics, serving as the critical functional component in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for targeted therapeutic delivery. As the core cationic lipid in specific LNP formulations (e.g., k-abe for CPS1-Q335X correction), its key feature is pH-dependent chargeability: it remains neutral at physiological pH but becomes positively charged in acidic environments like endosomes. This property enables efficient encapsulation of nucleic acid payloads (>97% efficiency, e.g., base editor mRNA/gRNA complexes) and facilitates endosomal escape via membrane disruption post-cellular uptake. Its optimized structure promotes selective hepatocyte targeting by binding endogenous apolipoprotein E (ApoE), which subsequently interacts with LDL receptors on liver cells. Preclinical studies show rapid clearance (>99.5% plasma reduction in 14 days) and manageable transient toxicity (mild, reversible cytoplasmic vacuolation in hepatocytes, short-term ALT/AST elevation). LNPs containing ALC0307, alongside helper lipids (cholesterol, DSPC, and PEG-lipid ALC-0159), form stable ~73 nm particles with low polydispersity. This combination enables repeatable, liver-directed delivery of gene editing therapeutics with minimized off-target effects, underpinning its use in individualized in vivo gene correction therapies. |

XH-04
|
XH-04 (Lipid#4) is an ionizable lipid engineered for advanced mRNA delivery developed by JiaChen West Lake Biotech. Its core structure features a central benzene ring with asymmetric hydrophobic tails (C9-C10 chains) and pH-responsive tertiary amines that enable efficient mRNA encapsulation and endosomal escape. As detailed in CN113993839A, XH04 outperforms industry benchmarks (e.g., MC3 lipid), boosting protein expression by >10-fold in BHK cells. In PCT/CN2024/121624, JiaChen further demonstrated its utility in lung-targeted LNPs (tLNP/tLCNP). When combined with cationic lipids (e.g., DOTMA at 2:1 molar ratio), XH 04 redirects >80% of mRNA delivery to murine lungs—overcoming liver tropism—while maintaining low toxicity. The lipid’s benzenic core and optimized alkyl chain geometry (patent claims 1-9) are credited for enhanced endosomal disruption and mRNA release kinetics. JiaChen’s innovations position XH-04 as a cornerstone for next-generation mRNA therapeutics. |

Lipid A1-EP10-O18A
|
A1-EP10-O18A is an asymmetric ionizable lipid developed by Starna Therapeutics for mRNA vaccine delivery. Synthesized via Michael addition between amine alcohols and acrylates, its optimized structure—combining a hydrophilic C10 chain and hydrophobic unsaturated C18 tail—enables pH-dependent ionization. As the core component of the STAR0225 lipid nanoparticle (LNP) platform, it efficiently encapsulates mRNA and facilitates endosomal escape. Preclinical studies demonstrate superior in vivo mRNA delivery (vs. commercial SM102 LNPs), with enhanced local biodistribution and minimal off-target accumulation. This lipid underpins STR-V003, an RSV prefusion F mRNA vaccine showing robust immunogenicity and protection in animal models, supporting its clinical transition (NCT06344975). |
