Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Temperature-responsive magnetic pluronic nanoparticles possess the capacity of drug release controlled by body temperature and can penetrate blood brain barrier.OBJECTIVE: To detect the capacity of magnetic pluronic nanoparticles to carrying ganglioside-1(GM-1) and its capacity of drug release in vivo, as well as its effects on repair of spinal cord injury.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized, controlled, animal experiment was performed at the key laboratories of Beijing Institute for Neuroscience, Capital Medical University and Institute of Process Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences between June 2006 and February 2007.MATERIALS: GM-1 loaded magnetic pluronic nanoparticles were prepared by Laboratory of Separation Science and Engineering State Key Laboratory of Biochemical Engineering, Institute of Process Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences. GM-1 was provided by Trb Pharma S.A of Argentina.METHODS: Twenty Sprague-Dawiey rats were developed into acute complete spinal cord injury models and were then evenly MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Behavior evaluation and quantitative analysis (nerve fibers and glial cells) at 4 weeks post-surgery.were significantly greater in the treatment group than in the remaining 3 groups (P < 0.05), the control groups exhibited greater numbers of nerve fibers than the sham-operation groups, and the control group 2 had higher levels compared with the control compared with the remaining 3 groups (P < 0.05). In the rostral areas, the control groups exhibited higher area ratio of glial cells than the sham-operation group (P < 0.05), and in the caudal areas, control group 2 displayed higher levels compared with the sham-operation group (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Magnetic pluronic nanoparticles possess drug-carrying and drug-releasing capacities. GM-1 loaded magnetic pluronic nanoparticies can repair spinal cord injury and promote nerve regeneration.
