However, the effectiveness of the drug is limited by its solubility and bioavailability, as well as by the low permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In this study, a kind of transferrin-modified Ost liposomes (Tf-Ost-Lip) was constructed, which could improve the bioavailability and enhance brain targeting.Methods: Tf-Ost-Lip was prepared by thin-film hydration method. The ability of liposomal formulations to translocate across BBB was investigated using in vitro BBB model. And the protective effect of Tf-Ost-Lip was evaluated in APP-SH-SY5Y cells. In addition, we performed pharmacokinetics study and brain tissue distribution analysis of liposomal formulations in vivo. We also observed the neuroprotective effect of the varying formulations in APP/PS-1 mice.Results: In vitro studies reveal that Tf-Ost-Lip could increase the intracellular uptake of hCMEC/D3 cells and APP-SH-SY5Y cells, and increase the drug concentration across the BBB. Additionally, Tf-Ost-Lip was found to exert a protective effect on APP-SH-SY5Y cells. In vivo studies of pharmacokinetics and the Ost distribution in brain tissue indicate that Tf-Ost-Lip prolonged the cycle time in mice and increased the accumulation of Ost in the brain. Furthermore, Tf-Ost-Lip was also found to enhance the effect of Ost on the alleviation of Alzheimer’s disease-related pathology.Conclusion: Transferrin-modified liposomes for delivery of Ost has great potential for AD treatment.Keywords: transferrin, osthole, liposomes, blood-brain barrier, Alzheimer’s diseaseKong LLi XNi YXiao HYao YWang YJu RLi HLiu JFu MWu YYang JCheng LDove Medical Pressarticletransferrinostholeliposomesblood-brain barrieralzheimer’s diseaseMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 15, Pp 2841-2858 (2020) |
