Biodegradable Polymers for Messenger RNA Delivery to the Lung

Provided herein are branched poly(beta-amino esters) (PBAE) useful as vehicles for the delivery of therapeutic agents, such as nucleic acids. The disclosed polymers form stable compositions, and are suitable for the delivery of therapeutic agents via nebulization. Compositions of the disclosed polymers are capable of delivering therapeutic agents such as mRNA to lung epithelial cells.
