Background Apolipoprotein (a) [ Lp (a) ] is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, the level of which is primarily determined by LPA gene polymorphism, and existing lipid lowering drugs reduce cholesterol in statin drugs by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, but are almost ineffective for Lp (a). RNA interference technology provides a new strategy for targeting LPA genes. Small interfering RNAs (sirnas) can silence LPA gene expression from post-transcriptional levels. However, the core bottleneck in successful development of LPA sirnas as drugs has been shifted from sequence discovery to delivery systems. Lipid Nanoparticles (LNPs) are the most mature nucleic acid delivery platform currently in clinical validation. Typical LNPs consist of ionizable lipids, helper phospholipids, sterols, and pegylated lipids, where cholesterol is an essential sterol component to maintain LNP stability. The traditional LNP using cholesterol as the sole sterol has the problems of insufficient liver uptake efficiency, large dosage burden and limited stability and batch-to-batch consistency when LPA siRNA is delivered. Therefore, under the premise of not remarkably increasing the process complexity and the toxicity, the lipid nanoparticle system capable of efficiently, stably and directionally delivering the siRNA to the target gene Lp (a) in a large scale and the preparation method thereof are developed, and the technical problem to be solved in the field is urgent.
