A doxycycline loaded, controlled-release, biodegradable fiber for the treatment of aortic aneurysms
چکیده انگلیسی
The pathogenesis of aortic aneurysm (AA) is characterized by degradation of extracellular matrix with increased matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and inflammatory reaction. Doxycycline (DOXY) has been reported to control the extension of AA by regulation of MMP. However, systemic administration may cause adverse side effects. In this study, we demonstrated the possibility of local administration of DOXY controlled-release biodegradable fiber (DCRBF) for AA in mice. DCRBF was fabricated by biodegradable polymer (polylactic acid; PLA) mixed with DOXY using an electrospinning technique. DCRBF was cocultured with SMCs, macrophages and aortic tissue, and placed on an abdominal aortic aneurysm which induced apolipoprotein E-deficient mice. We evaluated gene and protein expression of proteases, elastin and inflammatory markers. In the presence of DCRBF, MMP-12 was significantly decreased, TGF-β1 and Lox were significantly increased in SMC gene expression, MMP-9 and -12 significantly decreased gene expression of macrophages. The DCRBF preserved elastin content and decreased MMP-2 and -9 in aortic tissue. In addition, IGF-1 and TIMP-1 were significantly increased and IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly decreased with DCRBF in vivo. In conclusion, our results suggested that local administration of DCRBF may become a promising alternative therapeutic strategy for AA.
