Sequential delivery of TAT-HSP27 and VEGF using microsphere/hydrogel hybrid systems for therapeutic angiogenesis
چکیده انگلیسی

Ischemic disease is associated with high mortality and morbidity rates, and therapeutic angiogenesis via systemic or local delivery of protein drugs is one potential approach to treat the disease. In this study, we hypothesized that combined delivery of TAT-HSP27 (HSP27 fused with transcriptional activator) and VEGF could enhance the therapeutic efficacy in an ischemic mouse model, and that sequential release could be critical in therapeutic angiogenesis. Alginate hydrogels containing TAT-HSP27 as an anti-apoptotic agent were prepared, and porous PLGA microspheres loaded with VEGF as an angiogenic agent were incorporated into the hydrogels to prepare microsphere/hydrogel hybrid delivery systems. Sequential in vitro release of TAT-HSP27 and VEGF was achieved by the hybrid systems. TAT-HSP27 was depleted from alginate gels in 7 days, while VEGF was continually released for 28 days. The release rate of VEGF was attenuated by varying the porous structures of PLGA microspheres. Sequential delivery of TAT-HSP27 and VEGF was critical to protect against muscle degeneration and fibrosis, as well as to promote new blood vessel formation in the ischemic site of a mouse model. This approach to controlling the sequential release behaviors of multiple drugs could be useful in the design of novel drug delivery systems for therapeutic angiogenesis.
