State-of-the-Art Design and Rapid-Mixing Production Techniques of Lipid Nanoparticles for Nucleic Acid Delivery

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are currently the most clinically advanced nonviral carriers for the delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA). Free siRNA molecules suffer from unfavorable physicochemical characteristics and rapid clearance mechanisms, hampering the ability to reach the cytoplasm of target cells when administered intravenously. As a result, the therapeutic use of siRNA is crucially dependent on delivery strategies. LNPs can...
