Publication number: 20250186599Abstract: Described herein are block copolymers, and methods of making and utilizing such copolymers. The described block copolymers are disruptive of a cellular membrane, including an extracellular membrane, an intracellular membrane, a vesicle, an organelle, an endosome, a liposome, or a red blood cell. Preferably, in certain instances, the block copolymer disrupts the membrane and enters the intracellular environment. In specific examples, the block copolymer is endosomolytic and capable of delivering an oligonucleotide (e.g., an mRNA) to a cell. Compositions comprising a block copolymer and an oligonucleotide (e.g., an mRNA) are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2025Publication date: June 12, 2025Inventors: Sean D. MONAHAN, Michael S. DeCLUE, Pierrot HARVIE, Russell N. JOHNSON, Amber E. PASHCAL, Mary G. PRIEVE, Debashish ROY, Charbel DIAB, Michael E. HOUSTON, JR., Anna GALPERIN, Maher QABAR
