VL-422 is an ionizable cationic lipid. VL-422 delivers CRISPR complementary single-guide RNA (sgRNA) and Cas9 mRNA to enable in vitro and in vivo gene editing. LNPs containing VL-422 loaded with Cas9 mRNA and sgRNA targeting the ANGPTL3 gene induce the deletion of premature stop codons within the ANGPTL3 gene in the liver of cynomolgus monkeys. Loss-of-function of ANGPTL3 leads to decreased levels of LDL, HDL and cholesterol in plasma. The VL-422 delivery system can be used for the research of gene editing strategies targeting lipid metabolism diseases.
