Abstract:
Objective To study the application of mesoporous silica nanoparticle(MSN)as drug carriers in the treatment of osteoarthritis(OA).Methods Core-cone structured MSN(MSN-CC)was synthesized by sol-gel method,modified by polyethyleneimine(PEI),and loaded with hyaluronic acid synthase 2(HAS2).Forty OA model rats were randomly assigned to OA group,MSN-CC-PEI group,hyaluronic acid(HA)group,or MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 group.Ten healthy rats were assigned to control group.Normal saline 100 μL was injected into the knee joint in the control group and OA group.MSN-CC-PEI 100 μL,HA solution 100 μL,and MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 100 μL were injected in MSN-CC-PEI group,HA group,and MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 group,respectively.The levels of HA,interleukin-1β(IL-1β),and prostaglandin E2(PGE2)in the joint effusion and the foot swelling degree were measured at 1,2,and 3 weeks after injection.Results HA level in the MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 group was significantly lower than that in the HA group at 1 week after intervention(P<0.05),while HA level in the MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 group was significantly higher than that in the HA group at 2 and 3 weeks after intervention(P<0.05).With the time going on,HA level in the HA group was gradually decreased(P<0.05),but HA level in the MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 group was gradually increased(P<0.05).At 1 and 2 weeks after intervention,compared with the HA group,IL-1β,PGE2 and foot swelling degree in the MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 group were increased(P<0.05).At 3 weeks after intervention,compared with the HA group,IL-1β,PGE2 and foot swelling degree in the MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 group were decreased(P<0.05).With the time going on,IL-1β,PGE2 and foot swelling degree in the HA group and MSN-CC-PEI-HAS2 group were gradually decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion MSN carrier can stably stimulate the secretion of endogenous HA,reduce the inflammatory response within joint cavity of OA rats,and improve the joint morphology and soft tissue pathological changes.
