The antisense phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomer (PMO), AVI-4126, has been effective in reducing neointimal formation in animal models following delivery by pluronic gels, local delivery catheters and coated stents. Greater flexibility of repeated-dosage regimens and reduced procedure complexity may be provided by systemic injection of AVI-4126 bound to perfluorobutane gas microbubble carriers. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of perfluorocarbon gas microbubble carrier (PGMC)-based systemic delivery of AVI-4126 on expression of the c-myc in vascular tissue and restenosis after stent implantation.
Seven pigs underwent stent implantation (3 stents/animal). Five pigs received IV injection of PGMC and 2 mg of AVI-4126 (AVI BioPharma). Two served as control. Four hours postprocedure, 3 pigs were sacrificed and stented segments analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and Western blot. In chronic experiments, 4 pigs (12 stent sites) were sacrificed at 28 days.
HPLC analysis of plasma samples of treated animals showed minimal presence of AVI-4126. HPLC of the treated arteries demonstrated easily detected concentrations of AVI-4126. Western blot analysis of the stented vessels demonstrated modest inhibition of c-myc. Morphometry showed that the neointimal area was significantly reduced in the AVI-4126/PGMC group compared with control (2.63+/-1.99 vs. 4.77+/-.1.71 mm2, respectively, P<.05).
In the porcine coronary stent model, systemic targeted delivery of AVI-4126 using PGMC carrier significantly inhibited neointimal formation.
反义磷酰二胺吗啉代寡聚物(PMO)AVI-4126在通过普朗尼克凝胶、局部给药导管和涂层支架给药后,已有效地减少了动物模型中的新生内膜形成。与全氟丁烷气体微泡载体结合的AVI-4126全身注射可能会提供更大的重复给药方案灵活性,并降低手术复杂性。本研究的目的是调查基于全氟碳气体微泡载体(PGMC)的AVI-4126全身给药对血管组织中c-myc表达及支架植入后再狭窄的影响。
7头猪接受支架植入(每头动物植入3个支架)。5头猪静脉注射PGMC和2mg AVI-4126(AVI生物制药公司)。2头作为对照。术后4小时,处死3头猪,用高效液相色谱法(HPLC)和蛋白质免疫印迹法分析支架段。在慢性实验中,4头猪(12个支架部位)在28天时处死。
对治疗动物血浆样本的HPLC分析显示AVI-4126的存在极少。对治疗动脉的HPLC显示很容易检测到AVI-4126的浓度。对支架血管的蛋白质免疫印迹分析显示c-myc有适度抑制。形态测量显示,与对照组相比,AVI-4126/PGMC组的新生内膜面积显著减少(分别为2.63±1.99和4.77±1.71mm2,P<0.05)。
在猪冠状动脉支架模型中,使用PGMC载体全身靶向递送AVI-4126可显著抑制新生内膜形成。
