A fully scalable and extrusion-free method was developed to prepare rapidly and reproducibly stabilized plasmid lipid particles (SPLP) for nonviral, systemic gene therapy. Liposomes encapsulating plasmid DNA were formed instantaneously by mixing lipids dissolved in ethanol with an aqueous solution

Microfluidic systems can accelerate clinical translation of nanoparticles due to their ability to generate nanoparticles in a well-controlled and reproducible manner. In this study, a single-step process based on microfluidic focusing (MF) was employed to synthesize transferrin-conjugated lipid nanoparticles (Tf-LNPs)
Cationic lipid saturation influences intracellular delivery of encapsulated nucleic acids.
Molecular therapy : the journal of the American Society of Gene Therapy, 13(2), 328-337 (2005-11-09)
The systemic application of nucleic acid drugs requires delivery systems that overcome the poor pharmacokinetics, limited biodistribution, and inefficient uptake of nucleic acids. PEGylated liposomes show considerable promise because of their intrinsic ability to accumulate at disease sites and facilitate
Endosomal sequestration of lipid-based nanoparticles (LNPs) remains a formidable barrier to delivery. Herein, structure-activity analysis of cholesterol analogues reveals that incorporation of C-24 alkyl phytosterols into LNPs (eLNPs) enhances gene transfection and the length of alkyl tail, flexibility of sterol ring
