Abstract
We demonstrate a systematic and rational approach to create a library of natural and modified, dialkylated amino acids based upon arginine for development of an efficient small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery system. These amino acids, designated DiLA₂ compounds, in conjunction with other components, demonstrate unique properties for assembly into monodisperse, 100-nm small liposomal particles containing siRNA. We show that DiLA₂-based liposomes undergo a pH-dependent phase transition to an inverted hexagonal phase facilitating efficient siRNA release from endosomes to the cytosol. Using an arginine-based DiLA₂, cationic liposomes were prepared that provide high in vivo siRNA delivery efficiency and are well-tolerated in both cell and animal models. DiLA₂-based liposomes demonstrate a linear dose-response with an ED₅₀ of 0.1 mg/kg against liver-specific target genes in BALB/c mice.
