Dendrimer-Inspired Nanomaterials for the in Vivo Delivery of siRNA to Lung Vasculature

Nano Letters
Omar F KhanDaniel G Anderson

Abstract

Targeted RNA delivery to lung endothelial cells has the potential to treat conditions that involve inflammation, such as chronic asthma and obstructive pulmonary disease. To this end, chemically modified dendrimer nanomaterials were synthesized and optimized for targeted small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery to lung vasculature. Using a combinatorial approach, the free amines on multigenerational poly(amido amine) and poly(propylenimine) dendrimers were substituted with alkyl chains of increasing length. The top performing materials from in vivo screens were found to primarily target Tie2-expressing lung endothelial cells. At high doses, the dendrimer-lipid derivatives did not cause chronic increases in proinflammatory cytokines, and animals did not suffer weight loss due to toxicity. We believe these materials have potential as agents for the pulmonary delivery of RNA therapeutics.

Anti-inflammatory Treatments

A drug or substance that reduces inflammation (redness, swelling, and pain) in the body. Anti-inflammatory agents block certain substances in the body that cause inflammation and swelling. Discover the latest research on anti-inflammatory treatments here

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.
