ABSTRACT
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregates called Lewy bodies leading to the gradual loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra. Although α-syn expression can be attenuated by antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and heteroduplex oligonucleotide (HDO) by intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection, the challenge to peripheral targeted delivery of oligonucleotide safely and effectively into DA neurons remains unresolved. Here, we designed a new DNA/DNA double-stranded (complementary DNA, coDNA) molecule with cholesterol conjugation (Chol-HDO (coDNA)) based on an α-syn-ASO sequence and evaluated its silence efficiency. Further, Chol-HDO@LMNPs, Chol-HDO-loaded, cerebrovascular endothelial cell membrane with DSPE-PEG2000-levodopa modification (L-DOPA-CECm)-coated nanoparticles (NPs), were developed for the targeted treatment of PD by tail intravenous injection. CECm facilitated the blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetration of NPs, together with cholesterol escaped from reticuloendothelial system uptake, as well as L-DOPA was decarboxylated into dopamine which promoted the NPs toward the PD site for DA neuron regeneration. The behavioral tests demonstrated that the nanodecoys improved the efficacy of HDO on PD mice. These findings provide insights into the development of biomimetic nanodecoys loading HDO for precise therapy of PD. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE:
The accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregates is a hallmark of PD. Our previous study designed a specific antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) targeting human SNCA, but the traumatic intracerebroventricular (ICV) is not conducive to clinical application. Here, we further optimize the ASO by creating a DNA/DNA double-stranded molecule with cholesterol-conjugated, named Chol-HDO (coDNA), and develop a DA-targeted biomimetic nanodecoy Chol-HDO@LMNPs by engineering cerebrovascular endothelial cells membranes (CECm) with DSPE-PEG2000 and L-DOPA. The in vivo results demonstrated that tail vein injection of Chol-HDO@LMNPs could target DA neurons in the brain and ameliorate motor deficits in a PD mouse model. This investigation provides a promising peripheral delivery platform of L-DOPA-CECm nanodecoy loaded with a new Chol-HDO (coDNA) targeting DA neurons in PD therapy.Mots clés
