Ionizable polymeric micelles (IPMs) for efficient siRNA delivery
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are widely used for nucleic acid delivery but face challenges like limited targeting and accelerated blood clearance. We design three ionizable oligo-mers (IOs) that, with PLA-PEG, form Ionizable Polymeric Micelles (IPMs), a potential siRNA delivery system, which can achieve lysosomal escape. FAPi-modified IPMs (FAPi-IPMs) show higher targeting of activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) compared to hepatocytes, silencing both HSP47 and HMGB1, reducing collagen secretion and liv-er inflammation, effectively treating fibrosis. Moreover, IPMs and FAPi-IPMs mitigate accelerated blood clearance and produce fewer PEG antibodies than LNPs. Unlike LNPs, which adsorb apolipoprotein E (ApoE), IPMs and FAPi-IPMs show minimal apolipoprotein adsorption, differentiating their targeting effects from LNPs. In conclu-sion, IPMs represent an alternative nucleic acid delivery system with superior targeting and reduced immune clearance.
