Yet, few LNP-mRNA drug candidates are tested in NHPs, in part because the experiments require more animals than is considered ethical. Here, to minimize animal use, we create a pool of sterile barcoded LNPs that are frozen, aliquoted and administered when an end-of-life NHP—an animal that is independently scheduled for euthanasia due to spontaneous disease—becomes available. We then administer this pool of 45 LNP-aVHH mRNAs with different chemistries intravenously to mice and NHPs and observe a higher amount of aVHH expression in NHPs than in mice. We characterize systemic physiological responses to LNP treatment using 47 clinically relevant variables and analyze the transcriptomic response alongside delivery in single cells from three tissues in vivo. These data suggest that multiple lipoprotein receptors may be associated with delivery. Altogether, end-of-life NHPs reduce animal use and may be informative preclinical models.</p>","PeriodicalId":19084,"journal":{"name":"Nature biotechnology","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":46.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144488402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we use the PEmax system to create a library of 297,900 engineered prime-editing guide RNAs and perform extensive screening to identify synonymous mutations affecting cell fitness. Unlike recent findings in yeast, group-level analyses show that synonymous mutations diverge from nonsynonymous mutations in fitness effects yet exhibit similar phenotypic distributions relative to negative controls. Following rigorous quality control, only a small subset demonstrated measurable effects. For these functional mutations, we develop a specialized machine learning tool and uncover their impact on various biological processes such as messenger RNA splicing and transcription, supported by multifaceted experimental evidence. We find that synonymous mutations can alter RNA folding and affect translation, as demonstrated by PLK1_S2. By integrating screening data with our model, we predict clinically deleterious synonymous mutations. This research deepens our understanding of synonymous mutations, providing insights for clinical disease studies.</p>","PeriodicalId":19084,"journal":{"name":"Nature biotechnology","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":46.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144371178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
