Novel Mannan-PEG-PE Modified Bioadhesive PLGA Nanoparticles for Targeted Gene Delivery

الملخص EN

Purpose.

Biodegradable polymeric nanoparticles have been used frequently as gene delivery vehicles.

The aim of this study is to modify bioadhesive PLGA nanoparticles with novel synthetic mannan-PEG-PE (MN-PEG-PE) to obtain active targeted gene delivery system.

Methods.

Mannan-PEG-PE ligands were synthesized and modified onto the NPs/pEGFP complexes.

The modification rate was optimized, and the characteristics of the vehicle were evaluated.

Then, the modified vectors were intravenous delivered to rats, and in vivo targeting behavior of MN-PEG-PE modified PLGA nanoparticles/pEGFP complexes (MN-PEG-PE-NPs/pEGFP) in liver macrophages was investigated.

Results.

MN-PEG-PE-NPs/pEGFP displayed remarkably higher transfection efficiencies than nonmodified NPs/pEGFP both in vitro and in vivo.

Conclusions.

Mannan containing targeting ligands could significantly improve the transfection efficiency of the carriers.

MN-PEG-PE modified vectors very useful in targeted gene delivery.
