Endosomal escape: A bottleneck for LNP-mediated therapeutics. [PDF]
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have recently emerged as a powerful and versatile clinically approved platform for nucleic acid delivery, specifically for mRNA vaccines. A major bottleneck in the field is the release of mRNA-LNPs from the endosomal pathways into the cytosol of cells where they can execute their encoded functions.

Limiting endosomal damage sensing reduces inflammation triggered by lipid nanoparticle endosomal escape. [PDF]
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have emerged as the dominant platform for RNA delivery, but they induce severe inflammation. Here we show that LNPs' hallmark feature, endosomal escape, which is necessary for RNA expression, also triggers inflammation by causing endosomal membrane damage.

Chloroquine and cytosolic galectins affect endosomal escape of antisense oligonucleotides after Stabilin-mediated endocytosis [PDF]
Non-DNA-binding Stabilin-2/HARE receptors expressed on liver sinusoidal endothelial cells specifically bind to and internalize several classes of phosphorothioate antisense oligonucleotides (PS-ASOs).

Thiol‐Disulfide Exchange as a Route for Endosomal Escape of Polymeric Nanoparticles [PDF]
Endosomal entrapment has remained the major bottleneck for cytosolic delivery of nanoparticle-based delivery systems. Uncovering fundamentally new pathways for endosomal escape is therefore highly sought.

Imaging small molecule-induced endosomal escape of siRNA [PDF]
Therapeutic siRNA becomes trapped in endosomes, limiting its efficacy. Here the authors use fluorescently-tagged galectin-9 as a biosensor for membrane damage to monitor endosomal escape of cholesterol-conjugated siRNA following treatment of small ...

The Biology of Endosomal Escape: Strategies for Enhanced Delivery of Therapeutics. [PDF]
Intracellular delivery of biomolecules is essential to the success of modern therapeutics, yet endosomal entrapment remains a critical barrier to efficacy, and this has been highlighted with the push toward lipid nanoparticle (LNP) therapeutic delivery.

Quantitating Endosomal Escape of a Library of Polymers for mRNA Delivery
Endosomal escape is a key step for intracellular drug delivery of nucleic acids, but reliable and sensitive methods for its quantitation remain an unmet need. In order to rationally optimize the mRNA transfection efficiency of a library of polymeric materials, we designed a deactivated Renilla luciferase-derived molecular probe whose activity can be ...

Enhancing endosomal escape of transduced proteins by photochemical internalisation. [PDF]
Induced internalisation of functional proteins into cultured cells has become an important aspect in a rising number of in vitro and in vivo assays. The endo-lysosomal entrapment of the transduced proteins remains the major problem in all transduction ...
