This invention discloses a lipid-gold
nanoparticle complex for treating
sepsis. The preparation method includes the following steps:
Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is added to a dispersion of AuNPs and dispersed evenly; β-MEA is added, and stirring is continued for 4–10 hours. SDS is then removed by
filtration, and the remaining liquid is concentrated by
centrifugation. The concentrate is purified by
dialysis. After purification, the pH is adjusted to obtain a cationic AuNPs solution;
Claudin-5 overexpression
plasmid is added, and the reaction is stirred to obtain an AC solution;
soybean lecithin,
cholesterol, and DOTAP are added to a round-bottom flask, and
methanol solution is added. The mixture is heated to dissolve the liposomes, and the
methanol is removed by cooling to obtain liposomes; the AC solution is added to the round-bottom flask, and the mixture is shaken to
hydrate. The liposomes are then ultrasonically broken up, purified by
centrifugation, and filtered to obtain LAC. A "post-interpolation method" is used to add REDVC-PEG. 2000 DSPE is modified onto the surface of the
liposome complex to obtain the RLAC complex that targets vascular endothelial cells.
