Abstract

Efficient delivery of short interfering RNA (siRNA) remains one of the primary challenges of RNA interference therapy. Polyethylene glycol (PEG)ylated polycationic carriers have been widely used for the condensation of DNA and RNA molecules into complex-core micelles. The PEG corona of such nanoparticles can significantly improve their colloidal stability in serum, but PEGylation of the carriers also reduces their condensation capacity, hindering the generation of micellar particles with sufficient complex stability. This presents a particularly significant challenge for packaging siRNA into complex micelles, as it has a much smaller size and more rigid chain structure than DNA plasmids. Here, we report a new method to enhance the condensation of siRNA with PEGylated linear polyethylenimine using organic solvent and to prepare smaller siRNA nanoparticles with a more extended PEG corona and consequently higher stability. As a proof of principle, we have demonstrated the improved gene knockdown efficiency resulting from the reduced siRNA micelle size in mice livers following intravenous administration.

摘要

高效递送短干扰 RNA(siRNA)仍然是 RNA 干扰治疗的主要挑战之一。聚乙二醇(PEG)化的聚阳离子载体已被广泛用于将 DNA 和 RNA 分子缩合到具有复杂核的胶束中。这种纳米颗粒的 PEG 冠可以显著提高它们在血清中的胶体稳定性,但载体的 PEG 化也降低了它们的缩合能力,阻碍了具有足够复合稳定性的胶束颗粒的生成。这对将 siRNA 包装到复杂胶束中提出了特别重大的挑战,因为 siRNA 的尺寸比 DNA 质粒小得多,链结构也更刚性。在这里,我们报告了一种使用有机溶剂增强 PEG 化线性聚乙烯亚胺与 siRNA 缩合的新方法,并制备了具有更扩展的 PEG 冠和更高稳定性的更小的 siRNA 纳米颗粒。作为原理验证,我们已经证明了通过静脉内给药后小鼠肝脏中 siRNA 胶束尺寸的减小,导致基因敲低效率的提高。
