Table 6. Summary of studies on stimuli-responsive antibody-functionalized lipid-based nanocarriers for RNA delivery.

RNA cargo type Antibody type Nanocarrier type Stimulus Linker Lipid composition Size (nm)/PDI ZP (mV) Target cells Advantages Ref.
siRNA Anti-EGFR BsAb LCP NPs Light Methoxy group of PEG (mPEG) DSPE-mPEG2000, DSPE-PEG2000 folate, DSPE-PEG2000, DOPA, DOPC, and cholesterol 40–50 −15 to −11 MDA-MB-468 cell line LCP NPs demonstrated prolonged circulation and enhanced tumor accumulation, achieving a concentration of 1.75% of the injected dose. Cellular uptake in MDA-MB-468 cells was significantly enhanced by up to threefold, and the siRNA release profile was pH-responsive, with around 50% released at pH 5.5 within 1 hour, and 90% by 10 hours. They also eliminated small and large tumors 97
0.12–0.17
Trastuzumab NBs TUS Fc-G67 binding polypeptide DSPC, DSPE-PEG2000, and DSPE-PEG2000-Mal ∼172 ∼−22 SKOV3 and MDA-MB-231 cancer cells NBs remained visible in tumor vasculature on US imaging for up to 5 minutes post-injection, indicating short circulation time. Fluorescence imaging demonstrated strong binding to HER2-positive SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells and minimal binding to HER2-negative MDA-MB-231 cells, confirming targeted uptake 65
Narrow size distribution
Anti-PD-L1 Liposomes UV DSPE-PEG2000 DPPC and DC8,9PC ∼138 ∼−3 CT26 cancer cells Their circulation half-life was extended to 18.3 ± 2.1 hours. Tumor accumulation was also substantially higher, with 2.1-fold greater fluorescence intensity in tumor tissues. Antitumor efficacy was marked by reduced tumor volume and extended survival (>20 days) 73
