基于硫酸化透明质酸-聚乙烯亚胺-多酚缀合物的siTNF-α递送载体构建

Construction of siTNF-α delivery system based on sulfated hyaluronan-polyethyleneimine-polyphenol conjugates

  • 摘要: 肿瘤坏死因子-α(Tumor necrotic factor-α,TNF-α)的高效沉默在急性炎症疾病治疗中具有重要价值。但现有siRNA递送系统普遍存在免疫原性高及蓄积毒性强等问题,严重限制了其临床应用。为此,本研究构建了兼具高度生物相容性和抗炎活性的硫酸化透明质酸-聚乙烯亚胺-多酚缀合物,并评价其作为siTNF-α递送载体的综合性能。首先,制备了系列硫酸化透明质酸-聚乙烯亚胺-多酚缀合物微粒,系统表征了各材料的理化性质、生物安全性与载药效率。其中,硫酸化透明质酸-聚乙烯亚胺-咖啡酸(Sulfated hyaluronan-polyethyleneimine-caffeic acid,S-HA-PEI-CA)具有理想的粒径分布(1-2 μm)与siTNF-α负载能力(20 μg/mg);扫描电镜分析该材料具有稳定的纳米复合结构。体外实验表明,S-HA-PEI-CA可有效调控LPS诱导的RAW264.7细胞表型极化,显著抑制了促炎因子IL-1β、IL-6、TNF-α 的mRNA表达水平(62.15%、81.24%和33.14%);同时,显著上调了 Arg-1蛋白,抑制了iNOS蛋白表达,促进巨噬细胞向抗炎表型转化。通过流式细胞术与激光共聚焦显微成像验证,S-HA-PEI-CA展现出显著的巨噬细胞靶向性,可通过材料的内吞作用实现siTNF-α的高效递送,基因沉默效率达42.49%。总之,该载体固有的抗炎特性与基因沉默效应产生协同治疗效果,不仅成功克服了传统递送系统的生物相容性不足的缺陷,并且为突破炎症性疾病治疗中靶向递送与协同治疗提供了创新解决方案,具有重要临床转化价值。

     

    Abstract: Efficient silencing of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is of great significance for acute inflammatory disease therapy. However, the immunogenicity and in-vivo accumulation toxicity of existing siRNA delivery systems have severely limited their clinical applications. To address this issue, this study constructed a sulfated hyaluronan-polyethyleneimine-polyphenol conjugate with both high biocompatibility and anti-inflammatory potential, and systematically evaluated its comprehensive performance as a siTNF-α delivery carrier. First, this study prepared a series of sulfated hyaluronan-polyethyleneimine-polyphenol conjugate microparticles and characterized the physicochemical properties, biosafety and drug-loading efficiency of each material. Through comparative analysis, the sulfated hyaluronan-polyethyleneimine-caffeic acid conjugate (S-HA-PEI-CA) exhibited a uniform particle size distribution (1-2 μm), and high siTNF-α loading capacity (20 μg/mg). Besides, the microparticles effectively regulate the phenotypic polarization of LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells by significantly inhibiting the mRNA expression of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α (62.15%, 81.24% and 33.14% respectively). Meanwhile, it remarkably up-regulated the expression of Arg-1 and down-regulated the expression of iNOS, promoting the transformation of macrophages towards the anti-inflammatory phenotype. Moreover, S-HA-PEI-CA exhibited high macrophage targeting capability, and efficiently delivered siTNF-α to the cell (with a gene silencing efficiency of 42.49%). In summary, this carrier successfully overcomes the immunogenicity limitations of conventional delivery systems, providing an innovative solution for balancing the targeted delivery and biosafety issues in inflammatory disease therapy.
