Biodegradable Polyamine-Fatty Acid Derived Lipidoids for Drug Delivery

The present disclosure provides polyamine-fatty acid derived lipidoids (e.g., compounds of Formula (I) or (II)) and methods of preparing the lipidoids. A described lipidoid includes R—C(═O)—O— moieties (where R is a lipid moiety), which may be hydrolyzed into non-toxic fatty acids. Also provided are compositions including a described lipidoid and an agent (e.g., polynucleotide, small molecule, peptide, or protein). The present disclosure also provides methods, kits, and uses that involve the lipidoids or compositions for delivering an agent to a subject, tissue, or cell and/or for treating and/or preventing a range of diseases, such as genetic diseases, proliferative diseases, hematological diseases, neurological diseases, immunological diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, respiratory diseases, painful conditions, psychiatric disorders, and metabolic disorders.
