[0056] Example 3 Application of Targeted RNA Interference against Osteoclast Sema4d Gene

[0057] Experimental procedure

[0058] a. 8-week-old Kunming mice were given treatment measures, the intensity of intervention was once a week, and the intervention period was 4 weeks. Both prevention and treatment experiments were grouped as follows: ①PBS group (blank control), ②Scrambled siRNA-(STR-R8)-(D-Asp8) group (siRNA negative control), ③Sema4d siRNA-(STR-R8) group (non-targeting Negative control), ④OVX+Sema4d si RNA-(STR-R8)-(D-Asp8) group (experimental group). Calcein and alizarin red were injected subcutaneously three days after the intervention and four days before the sampling.

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method and application of a bone-targeted RNA interference compound. The RNA interference compound comprises siRNA and (D-Asp8)-(STR-R8) carriers. Specifically, the preparation method comprises the following steps: coupling bone-oriented D-Asp8 (oligopeptide of a bone tissue-targeted water-soluble polymeric drug carrier) and STR-R8 cationic polymer (a good gene transfection carrier) by adopting a chemical method, and attracting and packaging siRNAs aiming at target genes to STR-R8 through heterogeneous charge to obtain the bone-targeted drug. The bone-targeted drug directionally acts on bone tissues under the guide effect of D-Asp8, and achieves different effects by carrying corresponding siRNAs aiming at different target genes. According to the preparation method and application of the bone-targeted RNA interference compound, the application range is wide, the bone affinity is good, the synthetic steps are simple, and the conditions are easy to control.

Description

[0001] technical field [0002] The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine and relates to a bone-targeting RNA interference complex and a synthesis method thereof. Background technique [0003] Bone is a specialized connective tissue composed of massive calcified intercellular matrix and cells that provide mechanical support and participate in calcium homeostasis. It is constantly reabsorbed and rebuilt to maintain its normal function. Disturbances in this resorption / formation balance are characteristic of most bone diseases. With the increasing understanding of bone biology, many new therapeutic drugs have been used to treat bone diseases. However, bone tissue has high hardness, poor permeability, and special physiological and biochemical processes. For general drug treatment, it is difficult for drugs to reach the lesion effectively, resulting in low local drug concentration and ineffective effects. And increasing the administration concentration will increas...
