Formulation & Performance

This edition organizes the previously reviewed, source-linked product record. It is not a new independent review of every paper or supporting file. Reported and calculated values retain their original labels.

Component molecular weights and calculated amounts

Composition retained from the cited study below. Research planning aid only. Results cover lipid component weights and do not include RNA, buffer, solvent, process loss or an N/P ratio.

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

Splenic antigen-presenting-cell transfection

In the Ai14/Cre reporter experiment, the plotted fractions were approximately 67% versus 40% tdTomato-positive dendritic cells and approximately 60% versus 40% tdTomato-positive macrophages for AMG514 versus cKK-E12.

Cre mRNA, IV, n=4-5; the figure caption reports 5 micrograms and 48 h, while Methods report 0.25 mg/kg and 72 h · Extended Data Figure 4e and Methods
Antigen-specific CD8 T-cell response

AMG514-formulated NIK plus OVA generated approximately 15% OVA-tetramer-positive CD8 T cells after boosting, compared with approximately 6% for the cKK-E12 formulation.

C57BL/6J mice; total 3 micrograms RNA; days 0 and 14; n=5; route not stated for this experiment · Main Figure 6f-h and text p. 11
B16-OVA tumor challenge

AMG514 NIK plus OVA produced complete rejection in five of five mice, compared with three of five for cKK-E12 NIK plus OVA and one of five for AMG514 OVA alone. The authors state that the AMG514 advantage over cKK-E12 was not statistically significant.

Protein-corona profile

The reported AMG514 corona was enriched in vitronectin, coagulation proteins and selected apolipoproteins. This association does not by itself prove a receptor-mediated targeting mechanism.
