英文摘要
Increasing knowledge of the molecular underpinnings of disease is driving a powerful imperative to deliver
agents, such as nucleic acids, to silence expression of pathologic proteins for life-saving treatment of heretofore
hopeless illnesses. Although there are promising developments in strategies to deliver cell membrane
impermeant nucleic acids, such as siRNA, to disease-causing cells, a safe and efficient method for targeted
delivery of these agents has remained elusive. A significant hurdle for gene therapies using vascular delivery is
to circumvent the endothelial barrier. We have been developing a unique technology using intravenously injected
nucleic acid-loaded microbubbles (MB) which are triggered to cavitate (expand and contract) by ultrasound (US),
causing transient permeabilization of the adjacent cell membrane and delivery of the therapeutic carried by the
MBs. The potential of this site-specific, non-invasive delivery method is extraordinary, more so because the MBs
and US transducer also provide capability for simultaneous real time image-guided navigation of therapy. Despite
its promise, the mechanisms underlying the efficacy of ultrasound-triggered MB cavitation (UTMC) as a delivery
platform are poorly understood. Without a sound knowledge of the fundamental mechanisms by which safe and
effective biotherapeutic delivery is effected by UTMC, its ultimate bedside translation is impossible. We
hypothesize that MBs cavitating in the microcirculation impart non-lethal mechanical perturbations on endothelial
cells, leading to signaling events that culminate in endothelial barrier hyperpermeability. We propose in vitro
studies to systematically interrogate mechanistic pathways, followed by in vivo experiments to investigate UTMC
endothelial barrier effects in real time, addressing three Specific Aims: (1) Determine the mechanisms by
which UTMC increases endothelial barrier permeability. We will use transwells coated with endothelial cells
and manipulate candidate pathways to test the hypothesis that UTMC-induced Ca2+ influx increases endothelial
permeability. We will optically measure attendant cellular events using multicolor confocal microscopy, thus
correlating barrier function to cell response;; (2) Determine the relationship between in vivo MB cavitation
behaviors and transendothelial transport of macromolecules (siRNA). We will use a custom ultra-high
speed camera to visualize in vivo US-MB vibrations in the microcirculation to test the hypothesis that MB
cavitation causes quantifiable mechanical events, then derive physical principles governing UTMC-mediated
hyperpermeability;; (3): Determine extravasation pathways and cellular fate of siRNA-loaded MBs during
UTMC in vivo. We will use intravital high-speed multicolor confocal microscopy in cremaster microcirculation to
visualize endothelial barrier properties and siRNA-loaded MB fate. Our multi-disciplinary team unites
physics/acoustics with biology/physiology to derive insights into fundamental physical and cellular mechanisms
underlying UTMC-facilitated gene delivery. Ultimately, our research will define a rational basis for optimization
of this remarkable technology and accelerate the translation of nucleic acid therapeutics to the bedside.
