Abstract

Complications arising from diabetes can threaten multiple organs. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) play a significant role in inducing these complications. Highly processed diets and hyperglycemia facilitate the accumulation of AGEs in the body. Interaction between AGEs and their main receptor (RAGE) initiates the transmission of intracellular inflammatory and cell death signals, which ultimately lead to complications. To counter AGEs-induced damage, we developed an siRNA-binding tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (TDN) system, termed Tsi, which combines the potent cell membrane penetrability and serum stability of TDN with the gene-targeting specificity of siRNA-RAGE. Tsi effectively and persistently downregulates the expression of RAGE, thereby suppressing inflammation by blocking the NF-κB pathway as well as exhibiting antioxidant functions. Furthermore, Tsi regulates the pyroptosis state of macrophages via the NLRP3/caspase-1 axis, which inhibits the spread of cell death signals and maintains homeostasis. This is of great significance for the synergistic treatment strategy for systemic complications in patients with refractory hyperglycemia. In summary, this study describes a nanomedicine that targets the RAGE and suppresses AGE-induced inflammation. This nucleic acid drug holds long-lasting efficacy and is independent of lowering hyperglycemia, which provides a strategy for the treatment of diabetic complications and age-related diseases.

摘要

糖尿病引起的并发症会威胁到多个器官。糖基化终产物(AGEs)在诱导这些并发症方面起着重要作用。高度加工的饮食和高血糖会促进 AGEs 在体内的积累。AGEs 与其主要受体(RAGE)之间的相互作用会引发细胞内炎症和细胞死亡信号的传递,最终导致并发症。为了对抗 AGEs 引起的损伤,我们开发了一种 siRNA 结合的四面体型框架核酸(TDN)系统,称为 Tsi,它结合了 TDN 的强大细胞膜通透性和血清稳定性以及 siRNA-RAGE 的基因靶向特异性。Tsi 能够有效地持续下调 RAGE 的表达,从而通过阻断 NF-κB 通路抑制炎症,并发挥抗氧化作用。此外,Tsi 通过 NLRP3/caspase-1 轴调节巨噬细胞的细胞焦亡状态,抑制细胞死亡信号的传播,维持内环境平衡。这对于难治性高血糖患者的系统性并发症的协同治疗策略具有重要意义。总之,本研究描述了一种针对 RAGE 的纳米医学方法,可抑制 AGE 诱导的炎症。这种核酸药物具有持久的疗效,不依赖于降低高血糖,为治疗糖尿病并发症和与年龄相关的疾病提供了一种策略。
