Delivery of exogenous mRNA using lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) is a promising strategy for therapeutics. However, bottleneck remains in the poor understanding parameters that correlate with endosomal escape versus cytotoxicity. To address this problem, we compared distribution six LNP-mRNA formulations diverse chemical composition and efficacy, similar to those used mRNA-based vaccines, primary human adipocytes, fibroblasts, HeLa cells. Surprisingly, found total uptake not sufficient predictor...
Abstract Samarium( II ) iodide is a one‐electron transfer reagent that has become highly appreciated as mild and selective reducing agent in recent years. It been found experimentally various additives co‐solvents largely control the reactivity of SmI 2 . This microreview provides an overview current knowledge agent, particular with increase its reactivity. The use proton sources covered, well effect co‐solvents. Furthermore, very powerful mixture /H O/amine also described. (© Wiley‐VCH...
Methods for tracking RNA inside living cells without perturbing their natural interactions and functions are critical within biology and, in particular, to facilitate studies of therapeutic delivery. We present a stealth labeling approach that can efficiently, with high fidelity, generate transcripts, through enzymatic incorporation the triphosphate tCO, fluorescent tricyclic cytosine analogue. demonstrate this by tCO up 100% positions 1.2 kb mRNA encoding histone H2B fused GFP (H2B:GFP)....
Pharmacokinetics (PK) of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) is characterized by rapid distribution from plasma to tissue and slow terminal elimination driven re-distribution tissue. Quantitative understanding PK RNA knockdown for various ASO chemistries, conjugations, administration routes critical successful drug discovery.

The SmI(2)-mediated reductions of ketones, imines, and alpha,beta-unsaturated esters have been shown to be instantaneous in the presence H(2)O an amine THF. are not only fast quantitative by addition amine, but workup procedures also simplified. Competing experiments with SmI(2)/H(2)O/amine confirmed that could selectively reduced ketones or imines. Comparison analogue ligands showed nitrogen phosphorus superior oxygen sulfur these reductions. trialkylphosphine...
A highly fluorescent, non-perturbing, pentacyclic adenine analog was designed, synthesized, incorporated into DNA and photophysical evaluated.
Here it was investigated how oligonucleotide retention and selectivity factors are affected by electrostatic non-electrostatic interactions in ion pair chromatography. A framework derived describing depends on the potential generated ion-pair reagent concentration, co-solvent volume fraction, charge difference between analytes, temperature. Isocratic experiments verified that, separation problems concerning oligonucleotides of different charges, increases with increasing surface analyte...
Mixtures of SmI(2)/H(2)O/amine have been found to reduce alkyl halides more efficiently than SmI(2)/HMPA/alcohol mixtures at room temperature. Alkyl and aryl iodides were quantitatively reduced in <1 min bromides 10 min, while chlorides required 5 h for completion. Determination the reaction order Et(3)N reduction 1-chlorodecane showed that is one. Water was shown not participate rate-determining step this reduction. There a significant change UV-vis spectrum color SmI(2) upon addition...

The mixture of samarium diiodide, amine, and water (SmI2/H2O/Et3N) is known to be a particularly powerful reductant, but until now the limiting reducing power has not been determined. A series unsaturated hydrocarbons with varying half-wave reduction potentials (E(1/2) = -1.6 -3.4 V, vs SCE) have treated SmI2/H2O/Et3N YbI2/H2O/Et3N, respectively. All -2.8 V or more positive were readily reduced SmI2/H2O/Et3N, whereas all -2.3 using YbI2/H2O/Et3N. This defines values chemical YbI2/H2O/Et3N SCE.
