The gene delivery system for rheumatoid synovium.
A gene therapy of synovial tissue is potentially a novel therapeutic method in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The method induces expression of anti-arthritic molecules in target cells, and is also useful for the investigation of novel therapeutic targets in vitro. Previous studies showed that viral vectors, which can infect non-proliferative cells well, i.e. adenovirus-based vector, were effective ...
متن کاملOptimization of conditions for gene delivery system based on PEI
Objective(s): PEI based nanoparticle (NP) due to dual capabilities of proton sponge and DNA binding is known as powerful tool for nucleic acid delivery to cells. However, serious cytotoxicity and complicated conditions, which govern NPs properties and its interactions with cells practically, hindered achievement to high transfection efficiency. Here, we have tried to optimize the properties of ...
متن کاملThe Synovium in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease targeting multiple joints. The synovium is the primary site of the inflammatory process, which if untreated leads to irreversible damage to the adjacent cartilage and bone. It is now well established that autoantibodies that are characteristic of RA, including rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrulluninated protein antibodies (ACPA), are...
متن کاملEfficient Non-viral Gene Delivery in Vivo into Synovium
INTRODUCTION:• Gene delivery into joints is considered to become a useful strategy for the treatment of joint diseases. Viral vectors are commonly used because of their high transduction efficacies. Despite of recent improvement of the vectors, the viral vectors are associated with some unsolved problems such as induction of inflammatory responses and undesired generation of replication-compete...
متن کاملLocal Gene Delivery System by Bubble Liposomes and Ultrasound Exposure into Joint Synovium
Recently, we have developed novel polyethylene glycol modified liposomes (bubble liposomes; BL) entrapping an ultrasound (US) imaging gas, which can work as a gene delivery tool with US exposure. In this study, we investigated the usefulness of US-mediated gene transfer systems with BL into synoviocytes in vitro and joint synovium in vivo. Highly efficient gene transfer could be achieved in the...
