  • 摘要:

    Targeted drug delivery system (DDS) is required for RNA interference (RNAi) therapy to increase the therapeutic effect and to reduce the adverse effect. Especially in transthyretin (TTR)-related amyloidosis, hepatocyte specific delivery is desired because TTR mainly expresses in hepatocyte. Herein, we report on a hepatocyte-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery system using polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified lactosylated dendrimer (generation 3; G3) conjugates with α-cyclodextrin (PEG-LαCs (G3)) for TTR-related amyloidosis therapy, and investigated the in vitro and in vivo gene silencing effect of PEG-LαCs (G3)/siRNA polyplexes. PEG-LαC (G3, average degree of substitution of PEG (DSP) 2)/TTR siRNA (siTTR) polyplex exhibited the asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR)-mediated cellular uptake, high endosomal escaping ability and localization of the siRNA in cytoplasm, resulting in significant TTR silencing in HepG2 cells. In vivo studies showed that PEG-LαC (G3, DSP2)/siTTR polyplex led to a significant TTR silencing effect in liver after systemic administration to mice. Furthermore, safety evaluation revealed that PEG-LαC (G3, DSP2)/siTTR polyplex had no significant toxicity both in vitro and in vivo . These findings suggest the utility of PEG-LαC (G3, DSP2) as a promising hepatocyte-specific siRNA delivery system both in vitro and in vivo , and as a therapeutic approach for TTR-related amyloidosis.
