Effective nose-to-brain delivery needs to be developed to treat neurodegenerative diseases. Regulating miR-124 can effectively improve the symptoms of ischemic brain injury and provide a certain protective effect from brain damage after cerebral ischemia. We used rat models of middle cerebral artery occlusion (t-MCAO) with ischemic brain injury, and we delivered RVG29-NPs-miR124 intranasally to treat neurological damage after cerebral ischemia. Rhoa and neurological scores in rats treated by intranasal administration of RVG29-PEG-PLGA/miRNA-124 were significantly lower than those in PEG-PLGA/miRNA-124 nasal administration and RVG29-PLGA/miRNA-124 nasal administration group treated rats. These results indicate that the nose-to-brain delivery of PLGA/miRNA-124 conjugated with PEG and RVG29 alleviated the symptoms of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. Thus, nasal delivery of RVG29-PEG-PLGA/miRNA-124 could be a new method for treating neurodegenerative diseases.
需要开发有效的鼻脑给药方式来治疗神经退行性疾病。调节miR-124可有效改善缺血性脑损伤症状,并对脑缺血后脑损伤起到一定的保护作用。我们使用了具有缺血性脑损伤的大脑中动脉闭塞大鼠模型(t-MCAO),并通过鼻内给予RVG29-NPs-miR124来治疗脑缺血后的神经损伤。经鼻内给予RVG29-PEG-PLGA/miRNA-124治疗的大鼠的Rhoa和神经学评分显著低于经PEG-PLGA/miRNA-124鼻内给药和RVG29-PLGA/miRNA-124鼻内给药组治疗的大鼠。这些结果表明,与PEG和RVG29偶联的PLGA/miRNA-124的鼻脑给药减轻了脑缺血再灌注损伤的症状。因此,鼻内给予RVG29-PEG-PLGA/miRNA-124可能是治疗神经退行性疾病的一种新方法。
