  • Long-circulating, transfection-competent LNP-mRNA systems are key for effective extrahepatic delivery. Here, authors show that LNPs with high bilayer lipid ratios yield high mRNA encapsulation, prolonged circulation, and enhanced transfection in extrahepatic tissues.

  • Every organelle in a eukaryotic cell contains enzymes with specialized functions, unique to that organelle. But the endosome does things differently — it is regulated, in part, by a unique lipid called lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA). This lipid seems to be crucial, because anti-LBPA antibodies affect both the structure and function of the late endosome. Moreover, LBPA is recognized by autoimmune sera from patients with antiphospholipid syndrome, indicating that it may be involved in pathogenesis of this disease.

  • Efficient siRNA delivery remains a key challenge to realizing the full potential of RNAi-based therapeutics. Semple et al. accomplish unprecedented potency for liposome-mediated siRNA delivery by applying rational design to refine an empirically identified cationic lipid widely regarded as the benchmark for use in lipid nanoparticles.

  • Tran et al. combine high throughput sequencing, structural biology and computational simulation to determine the HLA allele and antibody-defined epitope frequencies in renal transplant patients and donors. These results demonstrate the feasibility of HLA epitope matching using data from a national transplantation program.
