제목 The Chitosan Microsphere for a Nasal Vaccine Delivery System in vitro and in vivo
초록 Chitosan is a valuable excipient for nasal drug delivery system due to its biocompatibility, biodegradability and low cost. Also, it has been reported that chitosan could induce cytotoxic T lymphocytes and macrophage activation [1]. Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is a water-soluble amphipathic polymer that exhibits properties such as protein resistance and low toxicity [2]. Chitosan microspheres (CMs) and PEGylated chitosan microspheres (PCMs) were prepared based on ionic gelation process of tripolyphosphate and then, the microspheres were loaded with Bordetella Bronchiseptica Dermonecrotoxin (BBD), a virulence factor of a causative agent of atrophic rhinitis, for nasal vaccination as shown in Fig. 1. Particle sizes of BBD-loaded CMs and BBD-loaded PCMs were smaller than 10 μm and had narrow size distribution with uniformity as shown in Fig. 2. Mechanical stability, vaccine BBD release from BBD-loaded microspheres and secretion of cytokine such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) and nitric oxide (NO) from BBD-loaded CMs and BBD-loaded PCMs were checked in vitro. Also, BBD-loaded CMs were treated to mouse as a model animal, and systemic immunity and nasal immunity were checked in vivo.
