Description

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have transformed nucleic acid delivery for vaccines and gene therapies, yet their efficiency remains limited by incomplete endosomal escape. While experimental studies have revealed endosomal membrane disruption facilitating cytosolic release, the molecular basis of this process remains poorly understood. Here, we employ molecular simulations to elucidate how LNPs fuse with the endosomal membrane and release their payloads.
