肝靶向配体半乳糖基白蛋白和多聚谷氨酸

化学合成两类去唾液酸糖蛋白受体(ASGPR)的人工配体——半乳糖基白蛋白(Gal_nHSA)和半乳糖基多聚-L-谷氨酸(Gal_nPLGA), 并以 ¹²⁵I标记的去唾液酸胎球蛋白(ASF)为标准配体,测定了合成配体抑制 ¹²⁵I-ASF与大鼠肝细胞膜ASGPR结合的IC₅₀值. 结果表明,Gal₁₂HSA、Gal₁₅HSA、Gal₂₆HSA、Gal₃₀HSA和Gal₃₄PLGA均能够有效地抑制 ¹²⁵I-ASF与ASGPR的结合,且前者与ASGPR的亲和力随半乳糖基化程度的增加而增加. 这些合成配体来源丰富、制备简单,适合于作为药物或基因肝靶向运送的导向配体.     

去唾液酸糖蛋白受体和脂质素协同介导原代大鼠肝细胞基因转移

以阳离子脂质素作为DNA运载体 ,以肝细胞去唾液酸糖蛋白受体 (ASGPR)的天然配体去唾液酸胎球蛋白 (ASF)作为导向配体 ,用于介导原代大鼠肝细胞基因转移 .结果表明转染复合物中加入ASF可明显提高肝细胞转染率 ,并且明显降低高比例脂质素 DNA复合物转染细胞时对细胞的毒性作用 ,ASGPR的化学合成配体半乳糖基白蛋白在基因转移中亦与ASF具有同样的作用 .因此ASGPR可与阳离子脂质素协同介导肝细胞基因转移 ,为原代肝细胞基因转移提供了一种更为简便、实用、有效的方法 ,有应用于肝基因治疗的前景 .

Asialoglycoprotein receptor and liposome synergistically mediate the gene transfer into primary rat hepatocytes

Gene transfer into primary rat hepatocytes was performed by employing cationic liposome as DNA carrier and the specific ligand of hepatic asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR), asialofetuin, as liver-targeting ligand. The resuits showed that asialofetuin, when added to the gene transfer complexes, could significantly increase the hepatocyte transfeetion efficiency, and alleviate the cellular toxicity of Lipofectin. Several synthetic ligands of ASGPR (galactosyl albumin) could also increase the transfection efficiency of hepatocyte like asialofetuin. It was proved that ASGPR and cationic liposome could synergistically mediate the gene transfer into primary rat hepatoeytes. This novel gene delivery system provided a safer, more simple and efficient gene transfer method for primary hepatocytes, and showed prospecting application in hepatic gene therapy.
