Abstract

Programmable nucleic acid nanoparticles (NANPs) with precisely controlled functional compositions can regulate the conditional activation of various biological pathways and responses in human cells. However, the intracellular delivery of NANPs alone is hindered by their susceptibility to nuclease activity and inefficient crossing of biological membranes. In this work, we optimized the internalization and therapeutic performance of several representative NANPs delivered with mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) tailored for efficient electrostatic association with NANPs. We compared the immunostimulatory properties of different NA-MS-NP complexes formed with globular, planar, and fibrous NANPs and demonstrated the maximum immunostimulation for globular NANPs. As a proof of concept, we assessed the specific gene silencing by NA-MS-NP complexes functionalized with siRNA targeting green fluorescent protein expressed in triple-negative human breast cancer cells. We showed that the fibrous NANPs have the highest silencing efficiency when compared to globular or planar counterparts. Finally, we confirmed the multimodal ability of MSNPs to co-deliver a chemotherapy drug, doxorubicin, and NANPs targeting apoptosis regulator gene in triple-negative breast cancer and melanoma cell lines. Overall, the combination of NANPs and MSNPs may become a new promising approach to efficiently treat cancer and other diseases via the simultaneous targeting of various pathways.

摘要

可编程核酸纳米颗粒(NANPs)具有精确控制的功能组成,可以调节人类细胞中各种生物途径和反应的条件激活。然而,NANPs 本身的细胞内递呈受到其对核酸酶活性的敏感性和生物膜穿透效率低下的阻碍。在这项工作中,我们通过为与 NANPs 有效静电结合而量身定制的介孔硅纳米颗粒(MSNPs)来优化几种代表性 NANPs 的内化和治疗性能。我们比较了与球状、平面和纤维状 NANPs 形成的不同 NA-MS-NP 复合物的免疫刺激特性,并证明了球状 NANPs 的最大免疫刺激作用。作为概念验证,我们评估了针对在三阴性人乳腺癌细胞中表达的绿色荧光蛋白的 siRNA 功能化的 NA-MS-NP 复合物的特异性基因沉默。我们表明,与球状或平面相比,纤维状 NANPs 具有最高的沉默效率。最后,我们证实了 MSNPs 能够共递送化疗药物阿霉素和针对凋亡调节基因的 NANPs 的多模式能力,用于三阴性乳腺癌和黑色素瘤细胞系。总体而言,NANPs 和 MSNPs 的联合可能成为一种新的有前途的方法,通过同时靶向多种途径,有效治疗癌症和其他疾病。
