Nanochaperones Based on Hydrophobic Interaction and Coordination Inhibit Protein Misfolding and Fibrillation
Amyloidosis is characterized by the deposition of fibrillar aggregates, with a specific peptide or protein as the primary component, in affected tissues or organs. Excessive proliferation and deposition of amyloid fibrils can cause organismal dysfunction and lethal pathological outcomes associated with amyloidosis. In this study, a nanochaperone (nChap-NA) was developed to inhibit protein misfolding and fibrillation by simulating the function of natural molecular chaperones. The nanochaperone was prepared by self-assembly of two block copolymers PEG-b-PCL and PCL-b-P(NIPAM-co-AANTA), which had a phase-separated surface consisting of hydrophobic PNIPAM microdomains with coordinative NTA(Zn) moieties and hydrophilic PEG chains. The hydrophobic interaction of the PNIPAM microdomain and the coordination of NTA(Zn) synergistically work together to effectively trap the amyloid monomer and block its fibrillation site. Insulin and human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) were used as model proteins to investigate the nanochaperone’s inhibition of amyloid misfolding and fibrillation. It was proved that the nanochaperone could stabilize the natural conformation of the trapped insulin and hIAPP, and effectively inhibit their fibrillation. In vivo study demonstrated that the nanochaperone could effectively preserve the bioactivity of insulin and reduce the cytotoxicity caused by hIAPP aggregation. This study may provide a promising strategy for the prophylactic treatment of amyloidosis.
期刊介绍:
Chinese Journal of Polymer Science (CJPS) is a monthly journal published in English and sponsored by the Chinese Chemical Society and the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences. CJPS is edited by a distinguished Editorial Board headed by Professor Qi-Feng Zhou and supported by an International Advisory Board in which many famous active polymer scientists all over the world are included. The journal was first published in 1983 under the title Polymer Communications and has the current name since 1985.
CJPS is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the timely publication of original research ideas and results in the field of polymer science. The issues may carry regular papers, rapid communications and notes as well as feature articles. As a leading polymer journal in China published in English, CJPS reflects the new achievements obtained in various laboratories of China, CJPS also includes papers submitted by scientists of different countries and regions outside of China, reflecting the international nature of the journal.
