SM-86 (Lipid 5)

Product Datasheet

SM-86 is an ionizable lipid used in the SM-86/OL-56 nanoparticle platform studied for hepatic delivery of enzyme-encoding mRNA. Baek et al. evaluated three distinct formulations: mRNA-3927 for propionic acidemia, mRNA-3705 for methylmalonic acidemia and mRNA-3210 for phenylketonuria. The study connects liver protein expression with enzyme activity and disease biomarkers in mouse models. These results describe complete mRNA-LNP products; they do not establish the potency or safety of unformulated SM-86.
