We have synthesized a renal-specific drug carrier, 14-succinyl triptolide-lysozyme (TPS-LZM) conjugate for targeted delivery of TP to the PTECs. TPS-LZM could be taken up by HK-2 cells, free TP would be degraded and released, mainly from basolateral side of the cells. Compared with TP, the overall targeting efficiency (TE) of TPS-LZM was significantly enhanced from 11.74% to 95.54% and its MRT was moderately prolonged from 3.08h to 4.10h. At very low concentration, TPS-LZM could significantly reverse the disease progression in renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury animal models, while the mixture of free TP and LZM was ineffective. Further, TPS-LZM conjugate presented much lower hepatotoxicity (0.78 folds lower than TP) and no adverse effect on the immune (1.13 folds higher than TP) and genital system. Thus, TPS-LZM represents a very effective drug candidate for specific treatment of immunological renal diseases with low adverse side effect.
我们合成了一种肾特异性药物载体,即14-琥珀酰雷公藤甲素-溶菌酶(TPS-LZM)偶联物,用于将雷公藤甲素(TP)靶向递送至近端肾小管上皮细胞(PTECs)。TPS-LZM可被HK-2细胞摄取,游离的TP会被降解并释放,主要从细胞的基底外侧释放。与TP相比,TPS-LZM的整体靶向效率(TE)从11.74%显著提高到95.54%,其平均滞留时间(MRT)从3.08小时适度延长至4.10小时。在极低浓度下,TPS-LZM可显著逆转肾缺血再灌注(I/R)损伤动物模型中的疾病进展,而游离TP和溶菌酶的混合物则无效。此外,TPS-LZM偶联物的肝毒性低得多(比TP低0.78倍),对免疫(比TP高1.13倍)和生殖系统无不良影响。因此,TPS-LZM是一种非常有效的药物候选物,可用于特异性治疗免疫性肾脏疾病,且副作用低。
