MDC Connects Series 2021 | A Guide to Complex Medicines: Lipid Nanoparticles - So much more than a little fat blob - Yvonne Perrie (University of Strathclyde)
Our fourth webinar in the MDC Connects Series 2021 | A Guide to Complex Medicines.
This slide deck takes a closer look Lipid Nanoparticles, and how there is so much more to them than being a little fat blob.

9. General LNP production method
Small Methods, Volume: 2, Issue: 9, First published: 26 April 2018, DOI: (10.1002/smtd.201700375)
pH adjusted so that the ionisable lipid is cationic and binds to the RNA
Lipids in solvent
mRNA
The pH is then
raised to 7.4,
resulting in the
outside of the LNPs
being neutral.

amplifying RNA encoding for rabies G protein encapsulating DOTAP polymeric nanoparticles (NPs), DOTAP
Liposomes or DDA Liposomes and compared with the commercial vaccine Rabipur (1/20 of human dose).

Impact on potency
1. DOTAP cLNPs
2. DDA cLNPs
3. MC3 iLNPs
16. Immune profiles: cLNP vs iLNP
No sig difference between iLNPs and DOTAP and DDA-cLNPs
All promote anti-RVG IgGs above the correlate of protection
two weeks after a single vaccination.
2 weeks after 1st injection
titers increased up to 20-fold
no sig. difference between the cLNP and iLNP responses.
