  1. Abstract:

    We previously reported that hydroxylated oxime ether lipids (OELs) efficiently deliver functional Dicer substrate siRNAs (DsiRNAs) in cells. Here, we explored in vivo utility of these OELs, using OEL4 as a prototype and report that surface modification of the OEL4 formulations was essential for their in vivo applications. These surface-modified OEL4 formulations were developed by inclusion of various PEGylated lipids. The vesicle stability and gene knock-down were dependent on the PEG chain length. OEL4 containing DSPE-PEG350 and DSPE-PEG1000 (surprisingly not DSPE2000) promoted gene silencing in cells. In vivo studies demonstrated that OEL4 vesicles formulated using 3?mol% DSPE-PEG350 accumulate in human lung cancer (A549-luc2) xenografts in mice and exhibit a significant increase in tumor to liver ratios. These vesicles also showed a statistically significant reduction of luciferase signal in tumors compared to untreated mice. Taken together, the scalable OEL4:DSPE-PEG350 formulation serves as a novel candidate for delivery of RNAi therapeutics. Copyright © 2021. Published by Elsevier Inc.
