4A3-LNSC8​ is a strategically designed thiourea-functionalized ionizable lipid that serves as the foundational core for a novel anion-coordination delivery platform. Its structure features a central 4A3 amine headgroup symmetrically extended with four hydrophobic tails, each incorporating a biodegradable ester linkage and a key thiourea-bridged linker. The inclusion of the thiourea group is the pivotal innovation, as it provides specific hydrogen-bonding sites capable of interacting with various halide anions (F⁻, Cl⁻, I⁻). When formulated into lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) without anion coordination, 4A3-LNSC8 itself exhibits a characteristic liver tropism, efficiently delivering mRNA to hepatocytes following systemic administration, with a measured surface pKa of approximately 5.54. However, its primary significance lies in its role as a versatile precursor. The strong anion-binding capability of its thiourea linkers allows for predictable modulation of the LNP's properties. Upon binding with anions like Cl⁻, the resulting complex (e.g., Cl-4A3-LNSC8) undergoes a significant pKa shift, which reprograms the LNP's in vivo fate, redirecting mRNA delivery from the liver to secondary lymphoid organs such as the spleen and lymph nodes. Thus, 4A3-LNSC8 is not merely an efficient ionizable lipid but a programmable scaffold that enables precise control over organ-targeting specificity through simple anion coordination, offering a powerful rational design strategy for advanced mRNA therapeutics.

BNT-51 is an ionizable thiolipid developed by Biontech, characterized by its sulfur-containing moieties and a multiarm dendron-like architecture. Synthesized via reactions between amine-containing compounds and sulfur-based halides or sulfonates, it forms stable lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) optimized for mRNA delivery. The LNPs exhibit uniform particle size (80–100 nm, PDI <0.2), near-neutral zeta potential, and high mRNA encapsulation efficiency (>90%), while maintaining payload integrity through freeze-thaw cycles and extended storage. In vitro, BNT-51 demonstrates low cytotoxicity (>80% cell viability in C2C12, HepG2, and HEK293 cells) and superior transfection efficiency compared to conventional lipids, particularly in immune cells such as CD4+/CD8+ T cells within PBMCs. Its modular design allows integration of stealth lipids (e.g., PEG or vitamin E derivatives) to prolong circulation time and minimize immune activation, as evidenced by low hemolysis and complement activation risks. In vivo, BNT-51-based LNPs enable targeted mRNA delivery to splenic macrophages, achieving potent genome editing (e.g., Cre mRNA) and therapeutic protein expression (e.g., BACH1) in preclinical models. With its tunable structure, robust stability, and cell-specific tropism, BNT-51 holds promise for advancing mRNA therapeutics in gene editing, cancer immunotherapy, and regenerative medicine, offering a versatile platform for next-generation nanomedicine.

113-O12B is a disulfide bond-containing ionizable cationic lipidoid. 113-O12B LNP, an LN-targeting LNP delivery system, is developed for a mRNA cancer vaccine. The 113-O12B/mRNA shows enhanced expression in APCs compared with ALC-0315/mRNA, indicating the LN-specific targeting ability.

Cl-4A3-LNSC8​ represents a novel class of thiourea-functionalized ionizable lipids engineered for selective organ-targeted mRNA delivery. Its core innovation lies in an anion-coordination strategy, where the parent lipid, 4A3-LNSC8, binds chloride ions (Cl⁻) via hydrogen-bonding interactions with its thiourea groups. This binding event is not merely structural but functionally critical, as it induces a significant shift in the surface pKa of the resulting lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) from approximately 5.54 to 8.79. This pKa modulation is the key mechanism that redirects the organotropism of the LNPs upon systemic administration. While the unmodified 4A3-LNSC8 LNPs preferentially deliver mRNA to the liver, Cl-4A3-LNSC8 LNPs effectivelyreprogram this tropism, enabling highly efficient mRNA delivery to secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs), particularly the spleen and lymph nodes. This platform demonstrates remarkable efficacy, achieving up to 65.7% gene editing efficiency in splenic macrophages in vivo, significantly outperforming benchmark delivery systems. Furthermore, by leveraging the coordination with different halides, such as iodine for computed tomography (CT) contrast, the system can be adapted for dual-modal theranostic applications, enabling simultaneous lymphatic metastasis imaging and therapeutic mRNA delivery.
