Hyaluronic Acid - Gold Nanoparticle / Interferon α Complex for Target Specific Treatment of Hepatitis C Virus Infection |
초록 |
As an alternative to non-specific polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugated interferon α (IFNα), target specific long-acting delivery system of IFNα was successfully developed using the hybrid materials of gold nanoparticle (AuNP) and hyaluronic acid (HA) for the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The HA–AuNP/IFNα complex was prepared by chemical binding of thiolated HA and physical binding of IFNα to AuNP. According to anti-proliferation tests in Daudi cells, HA–AuNP/IFNα complex showed a comparable biological activity to PEG-Intron with a highly enhanced serum stability. Even after 7 days post-injection, HA-AuNP/IFNα complex was target specifically delivered and remained in the murine liver tissue, whereas IFNα and PEG-Intron were not detected. Accordingly, HA–AuNP/IFNα complex significantly enhanced the expression of OAS1 and Mx for innate immune responses to viral infection in the liver tissue, which was much higher than those by IFNα and PEG-Intron. |
