Biolabile cationic lipids were developed for efficient intracellular delivery of DNA and siRNA. The compounds have been designed starting from the membrane lipid DOPC in a way they may loose their cationic charge when exposed to an acidic and/or enzymatic stimulus, such as those met during the journey of a lipoplex in biological media. They demonstrated remarkable efficiency to deliver DNA in various cell lines (BHK-21, Calu-3, NCI-H292, and A549), with no significant cytotoxicity. Furthermore, two of the compounds (carbonate-based DOPC derivatives) revealed able to deliver small interfering RNA in U87Luc and A549Luc cancer cells and to mediate a selective 70–80% knockdown of the stably transfected luciferase gene. The results show that the described bioresponsive cationic lipids have high DNA and siARN delivery activity which is encouraging in view of delivering a therapeutic nucleic acid to pulmonary tissues in vivo.
生物可降解阳离子脂质是为高效递送DNA和siRNA到细胞内而开发的。这些化合物的设计起点是膜脂DOPC,设计思路是使其在遭受酸性或酶促刺激时,如lipoplex在生物介质中行进过程中遇到的那些刺激,可能失去其阳离子电荷。它们在多种细胞系(BHK-21、Calu-3、NCI-H292和A549)中显示出卓越的DNA递送效率,同时没有显著的细胞毒性。此外,其中两种化合物(碳酸酯基DOPC衍生物)能够将小干扰RNA递送至U87Luc和A549Luc癌细胞,并能介导稳定转染的荧光素酶基因有选择性地70-80%的knockdown效果。结果表明,所述的生物响应性阳离子脂质具有高度的DNA和siRNA递送活性,这对于在体内向肺部组织递送治疗性核酸来说是一个令人鼓舞的发现。
