Synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of poly (D,L-lactide-co-glycolide)-based nanoformulation of miRNA-150: potential implications for pancreatic cancer therapy

Abstract: MicroRNAs are small (18–22 nucleotide long) noncoding RNAs that play important roles in biological processes through posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. Their aberrant expression and functional significance are reported in several human malignancies, including pancreatic cancer. Recently, we identified miR-150 as a novel tumor suppressor microRNA in pancreatic cancer. Furthermore, expression of miR-150 was downregulated in the majority of tumor cases, suggesting that its restoration could serve … Show more

“…Arora et al developed a poly (D, L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA)-based nanoformulation of miR-150 (miR-150-NF) having high encapsulation efficiency (~78%) and sustained release capacity. When PC cells were treated with miR-150-NF, it resulted in effective intracellular concentration of miR-150 mimics leading to down regulation of its target gene (MUC4), which resulted in the inhibition of cell growth, clonogenicity, motility, and invasion [260]. Further, intra-peritoneal injection of LNA-based miR-21 antagonist resulted in down regulation of oncomir miR-21 leading to decreased splenomegaly in mice with systemic lupus erythematous [261].…”

“…A solid lipid NP delivery system in conjugation with miR-375 efficiently reached pancreatic tumors and inhibited pancreatic cancer growth in vitro and in in vivo models. The delivery of miR-150-encapsulated NPs increased the expression of miR-150 in Colo-357 and HPAF cells by 28- and 26-fold, respectively, compared with transfection of miRNA via lipofectamine [37]. …”

“…The small size of miR-mimetics results in their rapid clearance from the body and thus mandates the development of efficient delivery or vector systems to target DNA sequences encoding miRs to tumor site. Recently, Arora et al developed a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)-based nanoparticle formulation to encapsulate miR-150 and demonstrated its utility to downregulate MUC4 and HER2 in vitro [83]. Although the miR-, and RNAi-based approaches to silence MUC4 expression have shown promise, for clinical translation, the significant first step would be to test these approaches in immunocompetent animal models that express human MUC4 in normal physiological context.…”
