Abstract
Long double-stranded (ds)RNA, a potent stimulator of type I interferon and the innate immune response. In the present study, we demonstrated, for the first time, the efficacy of cationic polystyrene latex nanostructures (clNPs) as a dsRNA carrier, improving cellular delivery and robustly potentiating the immunostimulatory capacity of dsRNA in the ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3. The clNPs complexed with an in vitro transcribed dsRNA molecule, were bound by SKOV3 cells, and had increased cellular association compared to uncomplexed clNPs. clNPs complexed with dsRNA induced a more robust innate immune response compared to dsRNA alone. Transcript expression of two interferon-stimulated genes, were increased 47- and 108-fold over dsRNA and induced a significant antiviral state against vesicular-stomatitis virus, resulting in a 3.3-fold improvement on the efficacy of dsRNA. These data highlight the potential of polystyrene latex nanostructures as dsRNA carriers for anticancer immunotherapies, improving the uptake and efficacy of the nucleic acid.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research – Part B: Applied Biomaterials is a highly interdisciplinary peer-reviewed journal serving the needs of biomaterials professionals who design, develop, produce and apply biomaterials and medical devices. It has the common focus of biomaterials applied to the human body and covers all disciplines where medical devices are used. Papers are published on biomaterials related to medical device development and manufacture, degradation in the body, nano- and biomimetic- biomaterials interactions, mechanics of biomaterials, implant retrieval and analysis, tissue-biomaterial surface interactions, wound healing, infection, drug delivery, standards and regulation of devices, animal and pre-clinical studies of biomaterials and medical devices, and tissue-biopolymer-material combination products. Manuscripts are published in one of six formats:
• original research reports
• short research and development reports
• scientific reviews
• current concepts articles
• special reports
• editorials
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research – Part B: Applied Biomaterials is an official journal of the Society for Biomaterials, Japanese Society for Biomaterials, the Australasian Society for Biomaterials, and the Korean Society for Biomaterials. Manuscripts from all countries are invited but must be in English. Authors are not required to be members of the affiliated Societies, but members of these societies are encouraged to submit their work to the journal for consideration.
