Description

Gene/small molecule compound nano drug delivery system and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biological medicines, in particular to a gene/small molecular compound nano drug delivery system and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a typical irreversible neurodegenerative disease associated with extracellular amyloid- β (Α β) deposition and intracellular accumulation of hyperphosphorylated Tau (p-Tau). Currently, the main clinical therapeutic approaches include cholinesterase inhibitors (donepezil and the like) and N-aspartate receptor antagonists (memantine), but they only delay the onset of disease and do not prevent the onset of disease. There is currently no effective treatment for the disease. In addition, many formulations directed against a β and p-Tau failed to demonstrate any efficacy in slowing or improving overall function in phase 3 clinical trials. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new disease modification therapies for a β and p-Tau.
In recent years, microRNAs (miRNAs) drugs have been widely used in disease diagnosis and treatment. Among them, miR-124 shows a great medicinal potential in Alzheimer's disease. miR-124 is specifically expressed in the brain, and meanwhile, miR-124 is found to be remarkably reduced in the brain of an Alzheimer disease patient. miR-124 can regulate the expression of various genes (such as BACE1, Caveolin-1, GSK-3 beta, 9PTPN1, DACT1 and the like) by binding with mRNA, thereby influencing synaptic plasticity, neuroinflammation, A beta production and Tau protein phosphorylation. A plurality of researches also prove that virus-mediated miR-124 overexpression can inhibit the generation of beta-amyloid of APP/PS1 transgenic mice and relieve cognitive defects of the mice. In addition, the miR-124 nanoparticles can be injected intracerebroventricularly or delivered intranasally to inhibit neuroinflammation and relieve acute brain injury. However, it is unclear whether exogenous delivery of miR-124 can block or slow AD progression. Can be combined with small molecular drug rutin to further improve AD pathological condition.
However, the application of miRNA is limited by the electronegativity of miRNA and the characteristic of easy enzymolysis in vivo, so the development of a high-efficiency, low-toxicity and low-price drug delivery system is the primary problem to be solved when miR-124 is used for AD treatment. In addition, most AD drugs have the problems of low blood brain barrier permeation efficiency and in-vivo non-selective distribution, so that the construction of an active targeting drug delivery system has certain clinical practice significance.
