Novel pH-sensitive cationic lipids with linear ortho ester linkers for gene delivery
摘要:
In an effort to develop pH-sensitive lipoplexes for efficient gene delivery, we report three novel cationic lipids containing a linear ortho ester linker that conjugates either the headgroup (Type I) or one hydrocarbon chain (Type II) with the rest of the lipid molecule. The cationic lipids carry either an iodide or a chloride counterion. Compared to our previously reported cyclic ortho ester linker, the linear ortho ester linker facilitated the construction of cationic liposomes and lipoplexes with different helper lipids. The chloride counterion not only facilitated the hydration of the lipid films during liposome construction, but also enhanced the hydrolysis of the ortho ester linker in the lipoplexes. After incubation at endosomal pH 5.5, the Type I lipoplexes aggregated and destabilized the endosome-mimicking model liposomes, but not the Type II lipoplexes. The helper lipids (DOPE or cholesterol) of the lipoplexes enhanced the pH-sensitivity of the Type I lipoplexes. In CV-1 cells (monkey kidney fibroblast), the Type I ortho ester-based lipoplexes, especially those with the chloride counterion, significantly improved the gene transfection efficiency, in some cases by more than 100 fold, compared to their pH-insensitive counterparts consisting of DOTAP. The gene transfection efficiency of the ortho ester-based lipoplexes was well correlated with their rate of aggregation and membrane destabilization in response to the endosomal pH 5.5.

A novel amphiphilic lipid compound having a cleavable, vinyl ether linked hydrophilic headgroup is described. Also described are liposomes containing the vinyl ether lipid compound, which may be triggered to release their contents and/or permeablize or fuse with target lipid membranes. The cleavable vinyl ether linkage allows the hydrophilic headgroup to be dissociated from the hydrophobic tailgroup(s) of the lipid compound to facilitate phase transitions in the lipid bilayer.

We describe a versatile, efficient, and practical method for the preparation of enantiomerically pure lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA), bisether analogues, and phosphorothioate analogues of LBPA from solketal. Phosphorylation of a protected sn-2-O-oleoyl glycerol with 2-cyanoethyl bis(N,N-diisopropylamino)phosphite, followed by oxidation and deprotection, generated the enantiomers of 2,2‘-LBPA. The

A series of novel cationic lipids was designed and synthesized in an effort to understand the importance of the various structural features with respect to transfection efficiency. Particular attention has been paid to the hydrophobic domain and the cationic headgroup. An efficient method of synthesizing asymmetric diether lipids is described, using alkyl chains ranging from C-12 to C-18 and the unsaturated oleyl group. The ternary formulations including the diether lipid 3beta-[N-(N',N'-dimethylaminoethyl)carbamoyl]cholesterol (DC-Chol) and dioleoyl phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) were up to 10-fold more efficacious in in vitro assays than the DC-Chol/DOPE control. The shorter and most asymmetric diether lipids performed the best. The chemical nature and basicity of the headgroups have been varied by the coupling of the four naturally occurring amino acids with cationic side chains-arginine, histidine, lysine, and tryptophan. Transfection efficiency was highest for arginine/lysine derivatives, with binary formulations containing the amino acid derivative alone and,DOPE proving superior.

We describe a versatile, efficient method for the preparation of ether analogues of (SS)-lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA) and its enantiomer from (S)-solketal. Phosphorylation of a protected sn-2-O-octadecenyl glyceryl ether with 2-cyanoethyl bis-N,N-diisopropylamino phosphine and subsequent deprotection generated the bisether LBPA analogues. By simply changing the sequence of deprotection steps, we obtained the (R,R)- and (SS)-enantiomers of 2,2'-bisether LBPA. An ELISA assay with anti-LBPA monoclonal antibodies showed that the bisether LBPAs were recognized with the same affinity as the natural 2,2'-bisoleolyl LBPA.
