The development of ionizable lipid (IL) was necessary to enable the effective formulation of small interfering RNA (siRNA) to inhibit P2X7 receptors (P2X7R), a key player in tumor proliferation, apoptosis, and metastasis. In this way, the synthesis and utility of IL for enhancing cellular uptake of lipid nanoparticles (LNP) improve the proper delivery of siRNA-LNPs for knockdown overexpression of P2X7R. Therefore, to evaluate the impact of P2X7 knockdown on breast cancer (BC) migration and apoptosis, a branched and synthesized ionizable lipid (SIL) was performed for efficient transfection of LNP with siRNA for targeting P2X7 receptors (siP2X7) in mouse 4T-1 cells. Following synthesis and structural analysis of SIL, excellent characterization of the LNP was achieved (Z-average 126.8 nm, zeta-potential - 12.33, PDI 0.16, and encapsulation efficiency 85.35%). Afterward, the stability of the LNP was evaluated through an analysis of the leftover composition, and toxic concentration values for SIL and siP2X7 were determined. Furthermore, siP2X7-LNP cellular uptake in the formulation was assessed via confocal microscopy. Following determining the optimal dose (45 pmol), wound healing analysis was assessed using scratch assay microscopy, and apoptosis was evaluated using flow cytometry. The use of the innovative branched SIL in the formulation of siP2X7-LNP resulted in significant inhibition of migration and induction of apoptosis in 4T-1 cells due to improved cellular uptake. Subsequently, the innovative SIL represents a critical role in efficiently delivering siRNA against murine triple-negative breast cancer cells (TNBC) using LNP formulation, resulting in significant efficacy.
为了使小干扰 RNA(siRNA)有效形成并抑制 P2X7 受体(P2X7R),需要开发可离子化脂质(IL)。P2X7R 是肿瘤增殖、凋亡和转移的关键因子。通过这种方式,合成和使用 IL 增强了脂质纳米颗粒(LNP)的细胞摄取能力,提高了 siRNA-LNP 的适当递送,从而实现 P2X7R 的过表达敲低。因此,为了评估 P2X7 敲低对乳腺癌(BC)迁移和凋亡的影响,我们对分支合成的可离子化脂质(SIL)进行了研究,以实现针对 P2X7 受体的 siRNA 脂质纳米颗粒(siP2X7)的高效转染。在 SIL 的合成和结构分析之后,成功地实现了 LNP 的出色表征(Z-平均粒径为 126.8nm,zeta 电位为-12.33,PDI 为 0.16,包封效率为 85.35%)。随后,通过分析剩余成分评估了 LNP 的稳定性,并确定了 SIL 和 siP2X7 的毒性浓度值。此外,还通过共焦显微镜评估了 LNP 中 siP2X7 的细胞摄取。在确定最佳剂量(45pmol)后,通过划痕实验显微镜评估了伤口愈合分析,通过流式细胞术评估了细胞凋亡。由于细胞摄取的改善,新型分支 SIL 在 siP2X7-LNP 制剂中的使用导致了 4T-1 细胞迁移的显著抑制和凋亡的诱导。随后,新型 SIL 在使用 LNP 制剂有效递送至鼠三阴性乳腺癌(TNBC)细胞的 siRNA 方面发挥了关键作用,从而取得了显著的疗效。
