Abstract

Platinum-based chemotherapy remains a mainstay treatment for the management of advanced non-small cell lung cancer. A key cellular factor that contributes to sensitivity to platinums is the 5'-3' structure-specific endonuclease excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1)/ xeroderma pigmentosum group F (XPF). ERCC1/XPF is critical for the repair of platinum-induced DNA damage and has been the subject of intense research efforts to identify small molecule inhibitors of its nuclease activity for the purpose of enhancing patient response to platinum-based chemotherapy. As an alternative to small molecule inhibitors, small interfering RNA (siRNA) has often been described to be more efficient in interrupting protein-protein interactions. The goal of this study was therefore to determine whether biocompatible nanoparticles consisting of an amphiphilic triblock copolymer (polyethylenimine-polycaprolactone-polyethylene glycol (PEI-PCL-PEG)) and carrying siRNA targeted to ERCC1 and XPF made by microfluidic assembly are capable of efficient gene silencing and able to sensitize lung cancer cells to cisplatin. First, we show that our PEI-PCL-PEG micelleplexes carrying ERCC1 and XPF siRNA efficiently knocked down ERCC1/XPF protein expression to the same extent as the standard siRNA transfection reagent, Lipofectamine. Second, we show that our siRNA-carrying nanoparticles enhanced platinum sensitivity in a p53 wildtype model of non-small cell lung cancer in vitro. Our results suggest that nanoparticle-mediated targeting of ERCC1/XPF is feasible and could represent a novel therapeutic strategy for targeting ERCC1/XPF in vivo.

摘要

基于铂的化疗仍然是治疗晚期非小细胞肺癌的主要方法。导致对铂类药物敏感性的关键细胞因子是 5'-3'结构特异性内切核酸酶切除修复交叉互补组 1(ERCC1)/着色性干皮病组 F(XPF)。ERCC1/XPF 对于修复铂类药物引起的 DNA 损伤至关重要,并且一直是研究小分子抑制剂的核酶活性的热点,目的是增强患者对铂类化疗的反应。作为小分子抑制剂的替代物,小干扰 RNA(siRNA)通常被描述为更有效地中断蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用。因此,本研究的目的是确定由两亲性三嵌段共聚物(聚乙烯亚胺-聚己内酯-聚乙二醇(PEI-PCL-PEG))组成的生物相容性纳米颗粒是否能够有效地沉默基因,并且能够使肺癌细胞对顺铂敏感,这些纳米颗粒携带针对 ERCC1 和 XPF 的 siRNA,并通过微流体制备。首先,我们表明,我们的携带 ERCC1 和 XPF siRNA 的 PEI-PCL-PEG 胶束复合物能够有效地将 ERCC1/XPF 蛋白表达降低到与标准 siRNA 转染试剂 Lipofectamine 相同的程度。其次,我们表明,我们的 siRNA 载纳米颗粒增强了非小细胞肺癌 p53 野生型模型中的铂类药物敏感性。我们的结果表明,纳米颗粒介导的 ERCC1/XPF 靶向是可行的,并且可能代表一种新的体内靶向 ERCC1/XPF 的治疗策略。
