Research Abstract |
It is expected that exon skipping, mediated by antisense oligonucleotides (AOs), is one of the most promising methods for restoration of dystrophin expression in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) treatment. However, efficient delivery method of AOs is still required for the DMD treatment. We have developed the PEG-liposomes entrapping echo-contrast gas, Bubble liposomes (BLs), which can function as a novel gene delivery tool with ultrasound (US). In this study, to develop an efficient phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomer (PMO) delivery system, we tested the potency of the BLs combined with US to boost the delivery of PMO and increase the skipping of the mutated exon in the DMD model mouse. The results indicated that the combination of BLs and US increased the efficiency compared with PMO injection alone, leading to enhanced dystrophin expression in the US-focused muscles. Thus, this US-mediated BLs technique may provide an effective delivery method for PMO therapy for DMD muscle.
