| Parameter | Value | Method |
|---|---|---|
| ΔG single ligand | -12.50 kcal/mol | LIE approximation |
| ΔG avidity | -10.09 kcal/mol | Bell cooperative binding |
| Receptors engaged | 50 | Geometric model |
| Kd class | Moderate (10-100nM) | Equilibrium binding |
Ligand-receptor docking uses Linear Interaction Energy (LIE) approximation. Avidity computed via Bell 1978 multi-valent model. Higher avidity = longer residence = more transcytosis events.
Docking affinity → release kinetics correlation
Endosomal escape efficiency vs release rate
Purple bands = sleep (00:00–08:00), 3.5× faster clearance (Xie 2013, Science). ECM binding index 0.74: particles trapped in ECM — extended retention.
DLVO theory: V_total = V_vdW (attraction) + V_EDL (electrostatic repulsion). Threshold 25kT prevents aggregation in blood. Debye length = 0.78 nm (physiological ionic strength).
Illustrative decomposition of the composite score into named per-feature terms (a fixed heuristic formula, not Shapley values from a trained model). Green = positive contribution. Red = negative.

RVG29-PLGA-NP: composite CNS-principle score = 80.5/100 (EXCELLENT). Carrier: plga, size 0.0 nm, ζ +0.0 mV, ligand: RVG29. Strongest group: G1 CNS Delivery (87.1/100); weakest: G8 Translational (0.0/100). Evaluated against all 57 Class A surrogate principles.
Combined score (surrogate pass-through + real physics): 19/28 principles scored PASSED (67.9%). Of these, only 7/28 principles ran independent deep computation (passed 7/7 = 100.0%); the rest re-used their Class-A surrogate score pending a future full-physics HPC run. Cite independent_pct, not pct, as evidence of physics-based validation.
