Abstract: This disclosure relates to ionizable lipid-based lipid nanoparticles for delivery of mRNA encoding glucose-6-phosphatase. Lipid nanoparticle/mRNA therapies of the invention increase and/or restore deficient levels of glucose-6-phosphatase expression and activity in subjects and are useful for the treatment of glycogen storage disease type 1a (GSD-Ia). Lipid nanoparticle/mRNA therapies of the invention increase glucose production and reduce the abnormal accumulation of glycogen and glucose-6-phosphate associated with GSD-Ia.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a battery structure and a carrier vehicle. The battery structure includes a battery main body, a plug component, and a handle. The handle is detachably connected to the top or the side of the battery main body. The plug component includes at least one plug end. The plug end can be plugged into the battery main body and the plug component is powered on when plugged into the battery. The handle is provided with a locking piece. When the handle is connected to the top of the battery main body, the locking piece is vertically docked for locking. When the handle is connected to the side of the battery main body, the locking piece is transversely docked for locking.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to mRNA therapy for the treatment of glycogen storage disease type 1a, (GSD-Ia), and related symptoms such as hypoglycemia. mRNAs for use in the invention, when administered in vivo, encode human glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase or G6PC), and functional fragments and variants thereof. mRNAs of the invention are preferably encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to effect efficient delivery to cells and/or tissues in subjects, when administered thereto. mRNA therapies of the invention increase and/or restore deficient levels of G6PC expression and/or activity in subjects. mRNA therapies of the invention further increase the glucose production, and reduce the abnormal accumulation of glycogen and/or glucose-6-phosphate associated with GSD-Ia.

Abstract: The invention relates to mRNA therapy for the treatment of Citrullinemia Type 2 (“CTLN2”). mRNAs for use in the invention, when administered in vivo, encode human Citrin, isoforms thereof, functional fragments thereof, and fusion proteins comprising Citrin. mRNAs of the invention are preferably encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to effect efficient delivery to cells and/or tissues in subjects, when administered thereto. mRNA therapies of the invention increase and/or restore deficient levels of Citrin expression and/or activity in subjects. mRNA therapies of the invention further decrease levels of biomarkers associated with deficient Citrin activity in subjects, namely ammonia and/or triglycerides.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions of nucleic acids relating to biliary epithelial transporters. For example, the present disclosure relates to nucleic acids capable of regulating the biliary secretion of phospholipids, including phosphatidylcholine, e.g., those encoded by ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 4 (ABCB4) or a biologically active fragment thereof, in a target cell. In a preferred embodiment, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising modified mRNA encoding ABCB4 formulated in a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) carrier and derivative constructs, which are useful for treating or preventing progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 (PFIC3).

Abstract: The present invention provides isolated and purified polynucleotides and polypeptides related to mouse and human microsomal acyl-CoA:glycerol 3-phosphate acyltransferase 3 (GPAT3) and their uses in modulating triacylglycerol (TAG) levels in a cell or sample of interest. The invention also provides GPAT3 agonists and antagonists, e.g., GPAT3 polynucleotides and polypeptides, antibodies to GPAT3 (agonistic and antagonistic antibodies), GPAT3 inhibitory polypeptides, and GPAT3 inhibitory polynucleotides. The present invention is also directed to novel methods for diagnosing, prognosing, monitoring, treating, ameliorating and/or preventing conditions related to GPAT3, TAG synthesis (or accumulation), or the synthesis (or accumulation) of TAG precursors (e.g., MAG, LPA, PA, and/or G3P). These GPAT3-associated conditions include, but are not limited to, dyslipidemia (e.g.
