Regulating intracellular fate of siRNA by endoplasmic reticulum membrane-decorated hybrid nanoplexes.

ABSTRACT: Most cationic vectors are difficult to avoid the fate of small interfering RNA (siRNA) degradation following the endosome-lysosome pathway during siRNA transfection. In this study, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane isolated from cancer cells was used to fabricate an integrative hybrid nanoplexes (EhCv/siRNA NPs) for improving siRNA transfection. Compared to the undecorated Cv/siEGFR NPs, the ER membrane-decorated EhCv/siRNA NPs exhibits a significantly higher gene silencing effect of siRNA in vitro and a better antitumor activity in nude mice bearing MCF-7 human breast tumor in vivo. Further mechanistic studies demonstrate that functional proteins on the ER membrane plays important roles on improving cellular uptake and altering intracellular trafficking pathway of siRNA. It is worth to believe that the ER membrane decoration on nanoplexes can effectively transport siRNA through the endosome-Golgi-ER pathway to evade lysosomal degradation and enhance the silencing effects of siRNA.

Project description:Aim and experimental set-up: Sequencing of small RNA from total RNA fractions. The aim of this experiment was to compare profiles of miRNA expression between the following genetic backgrounds: Col-0 (wild type), era1-2 (farnesyl transferase mutant), j2-2/j3-2 + pJ3:J3 (j2/j3 double knockout expressing transgenic J3 under the control of the endogenous J3 promoter), j2-2/j3-2 + pJ3:J3C417S (j2/j3 double knockout expressing transgenic J3 mutated in the farnesylation site (C417S) under the control of the endogenous J3 promoter). Seedlings were grown under sterile conditions for 16 days. Two biological replicates of each genotype were harvested, and total RNA was prepared by Trizol extraction. Small RNA libraries were constructed using NEBNext Small RNA Library Prep Set and sequenced on an Illumina platform. Sequencing of small RNA bound to AGO1 in membrane fractions The aim of this experiment was to characterize AGO1-bound small RNAs in membrane fractions, and to answer two specific questions: Can miRNAs be identified whose association with membrane-bound AGO1 is different between the following four genotypes: Col-0 (wild type), era1-2 (farnesyl transferase mutant), j2-2/j3-2 + pJ3:J3 (j2/j3 double knockout expressing transgenic J3 under the control of the endogenous J3 promoter), j2-2/j3-2 + pJ3:J3C417S (j2/j3 double knockout expressing transgenic J3 mutated in the farnesylation site (C417S) under the control of the endogenous J3 promoter) Is the ratio between reads matching miRNA and miRNA* different between the above four genotypes? Seedlings were grown under sterile conditions for 16 days. Two biological replicates of each genotype were harvested. Microsomes were prepared from 2g of seedling tissue, solubilized by 1% deoxycholate and AGO1 was immunoprecipitated with specific antibodies (Agrisera). Immunopurified AGO1 was eluted from Protein A sepharose beads by competitive elution with antigenic AGO1 peptide. Small RNA was extracted by Trizol extraction from eluted AGO1. Small RNA libraries were constructed using NEBNext Small RNA Library Prep Set and sequenced on an Illumina platform.
