Intranasal delivery of a Fas-blocking peptide attenuates Fas-mediated apoptosis in brain ischemia

Abstract: Ischemic stroke-induced neuronal cell death results in the permanent disabling of brain function. Apoptotic mechanisms are thought to play a prominent role in neuronal injury and ample evidence implicates Fas signaling in mediating cell death. In this study, we describe the neuroprotective effects of a Fas-blocking peptide (FBP) that by obstructing Fas signaling in cerebral ischemia inhibits apoptosis. Using an intranasal administration route in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia, we demonstrate that nose-… Show more

“…High vascular mucous membranes of the nose facilitate rapid absorption of un-metabolized drug to the central nervous system. 7,8 Recently, novel studies have been carried out to enhance the bioavailability, such as solid dispersion, 9 liposomes, 10 chitosan microparticles, 11 polymeric lipid-core nanocapsules, 12 and lipid vesicles. 13,15 Lipid vesicles, as a tool for drug delivery of SUT, have been studied.…”

“…There are other apparent advantages of intranasal administration including: convenience of administration, a possibility for repeated administration, minimal delivery time, no need for applying cytokine modification strategies to penetrate blood-brain barrier, absence of systemic side effects [20][21][22]. In agreement with this notion, clinical effects of cytokines after intranasal administration have been demonstrated in various models of neuropathology, including Alzheimer disease, brain ischemia, and traumatic brain injury [23,24,33,34].…”

“…Recently, very early treatment with zonisamide was shown to decrease morbidity by suppressing the expression of caspase-3, caspase-8, and calpain-1, inhibiting the apoptosis of neuronal cells after cerebral ischemia ( He et al, 2021 ). Further, intranasal administration of a Fas-blocking peptide 12 h after ischemic stroke attenuated Fas-mediated apoptosis, decreased the volume of the infarcted area, and reduced neurological deficits ( Ullah et al, 2018 ). Importantly, a significant reduction in the volume of the infarcted area occurred in hybrid mice expressing nonfunctional Fas ligand and in TNF knockout mice 24 h after stroke ( Martin-Villalba et al, 1999 ; Rosenbaum et al, 2000 ).…”
