Iso-A11B5C1 and SM-102 produced comparable editing at the injected quadriceps. SM-102 produced 83.83% liver and 72.67% spleen editing, whereas editing in those tissues was undetectable with iso-A11B5C1 in the reported experiment.

Calculated total: 100.0000 mg lipid.
Calculated catalog planning quantities; RNA, solvent and process loss are excluded. DMG-PEG2000 uses 2507. Component mass = total lipid mass × molar parts × molecular weight / sum(parts × molecular weight). This conversion does not infer N/P.

Additional reported findings
Relative to SM-102 LNP, iso-A11B5C1 LNP showed 42-fold higher transfection in HeLa cells but 28-fold and 24-fold lower transfection in HepG2 cells and splenocytes, respectively.
mLuc LNP; HeLa, HepG2 and primary splenocyte comparison · Main Figure 3A and text, PNAS p. 4Iso-A11B5C1 LNP carrying full-length Trp2 mRNA significantly slowed B16-F10-Luc tumor growth and outperformed the MC3 comparator; it also increased IFN-gamma-positive CD8 T cells and intratumoral CD8 T-cell infiltration versus MC3. The authors reported lower efficacy than the SM-102 group.
