Background And Objectives:
NSCLC (Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer) clutches highest mortality rate in man and women globally. The present study was conducted to target MUC-1 peptide (M-1) into antigen presenting cells by cargo the peptide into hyaluronic acid decorated polyethylene glycol linked poly (D, l-lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles (M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs) for generating mucosal immunity through inhalation (i.h.) route.
Methodology And Results:
The mean particle size and surface charge of M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs was measured to be 136.2 ± 18.38-nm and - 28.34 ± 6.77-mV, respectively, prepared by non-aggregated emulsion-diffusion evaporation method. The 28.42% percentage release of M-1 peptide from M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-NPs was observed to be at 2 h and 95.29% at 8 h while the percentage release of M-1 peptide from M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs was observed to be 26.02% at 4 h and 97.95% at 24 h that proved the prolonged release of antigen. M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs demonstrated higher (P < 0.05) cellular uptake of 86.2% in RAW 264.7 cells in comparison to 27.6% of M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-NPs. In addition, M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs induced remarkably (P < 0.05) elevated release of 80.6-pg/ml of TNF-α in comparison to 5-pg/ml by culture medium and 57.9-pg/ml of TNF-α by M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-NPs. Similarly, M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs persuade remarkably (P < 0.05) elevated release of 225-pg/ml of IL-1β in comparison to 47-pg/ml by culture medium and 161.9-pg/ml of IL-1β by M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-NPs. M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs might have been endocytosed through receptor mediated pathway owing to presence of sHA. Mice immunized through i.h. route with M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs induced strong (P < 0.05) IgA antibody titre as compared to M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-NPs and M-1 peptide in dose-dosage regimen.
Conclusion:
M-1-PL-co-GA-PEG-sHA-NPs nanovaccine warrants further analysis in xenograft model of NSCLC to showcase its antitumor capability.
