摘要

Congenital disorders resulting in pathological protein deficiencies are most often treated postnatally with protein or enzyme replacement therapies. However, treatment of these disorders in utero before irreversible disease onset could significantly minimize disease burden, morbidity, and mortality. One possible strategy for the prenatal treatment of congenital disorders is in utero delivery of messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is a nucleic acid therapeutic that has previously been investigated as a platform for protein replacement therapies and gene editing technologies. While viral vectors have been explored to induce intracellular expression of mRNA, they are limited in their clinical application due to risks associated with immunogenicity and genomic integration. As an alternative to viral vectors, safe and efficient in utero mRNA delivery can be achieved using ionizable lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). While LNPs have demonstrated potent in vivo mRNA delivery to the liver following intravenous administration, intra-amniotic delivery has the potential to deliver mRNA to cells and tissues beyond those in the liver, such as in the skin, lung, and digestive tract. However, LNP stability in fetal amniotic fluid and how this stability affects mRNA delivery has not been previously investigated. Here, we engineered a library of LNPs using orthogonal design of experiments (DOE) to evaluate how LNP structure affects their stability in amniotic fluid ex utero and whether a lead candidate identified from these stability measurements enables intra-amniotic mRNA delivery in utero. We used a combination of techniques including dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and chromatography followed by protein content quantification to screen LNP stability in amniotic fluids. These results identified multiple lead LNP formulations that are highly stable in amniotic fluids ranging from small animals to humans, including mouse, sheep, pig, and human amniotic fluid samples. We then demonstrate that stable LNPs from the ex utero screen in mouse amniotic fluid enabled potent mRNA delivery in primary fetal lung fibroblasts and in utero following intra-amniotic injection in a murine model. This exploration of ex utero stability in amniotic fluids demonstrates a means by which to identify novel LNP formulations for prenatal treatment of congenital disorders via in utero mRNA delivery.
