| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we examined a drug delivery system using nano-microbubbles and ultrasound applicable to a gene therapy for temporomandibular joint ankylosis. As a study model, the kinetics of luciferase gene expression was analyzed in the mice model for the joint ankylosis by using bioluminescence imaging. To improve transfer efficiency of transfection with minimum tissue damage, parameters such as irradiation time of ultrasound, ultrasonic frequency to be irradiated, ultrasonic pressure, the duty ratio, pulse number, structure of the nano-microbubbles, the zeta potential, bubble size, the inner sealing gas, and the proportion of cells and the bubble were tested. As a result, the luciferase gene activity was observed in the skeletal muscle close to the knee joint of the model mouse after the luciferase gene transfection.
