Topical application of tyrosinase inhibitors, such as hydroquinone and arbutin, is the most common clinical treatment for hyperpigmentation. Glabridin (Gla) is a natural isoflavone that inhibits tyrosinase activity, free radical scavenging, and antioxidation. However, its water solubility is poor, and it cannot pass through the human skin barrier alone. Tetrahedral framework nucleic acid (tFNA), a new type of DNA biomaterial, can penetrate cells and tissues and can be used as carriers to deliver small-molecule drugs, polypeptides, and oligonucleotides. This study aimed to develop a compound drug system using tFNA as the carrier to transport Gla and deliver it through the skin to treat pigmentation. Furthermore, we aimed to explore whether tFNA-Gla can effectively alleviate the hyperpigmentation caused by increased melanin production and determine whether tFNA-Gla exerts substantial synergistic effects during treatment. Our results showed that the developed system successfully treated pigmentation by inhibiting regulatory proteins related to melanin production. Furthermore, our findings showed that the system was effective in treating epidermal and superficial dermal diseases. The tFNA-based transdermal drug delivery system can thus develop into novel, effective options for non-invasive drug delivery through the skin barrier.
局部应用酪氨酸酶抑制剂,如对苯二酚和熊果苷,是治疗色素沉着最常见的临床治疗方法。甘草素(Gla)是一种天然异黄酮,可抑制酪氨酸酶活性、清除自由基和抗氧化。然而,其水溶性差,单独不能穿透人体皮肤屏障。四面体框架核酸(tFNA)是一种新型 DNA 生物材料,可穿透细胞和组织,可用作载体输送小分子药物、多肽和寡核苷酸。本研究旨在开发一种使用 tFNA 作为载体的复方药物系统,将 Gla 输送到皮肤中以治疗色素沉着,并探讨 tFNA-Gla 是否能有效缓解黑色素生成增加引起的色素沉着,以及 tFNA-Gla 在治疗过程中是否发挥显著协同作用。我们的结果表明,该系统通过抑制与黑色素生成相关的调节蛋白成功治疗了色素沉着。此外,我们的研究结果表明,该系统对治疗表皮和真皮浅层疾病有效。因此,基于 tFNA 的透皮药物递送系统可以开发成通过皮肤屏障的新型有效非侵入性药物递送选择。
