We have synthesized a renal-specific drug carrier, 14-succinyl triptolide-lysozyme (TPS-LZM) conjugate for targeted delivery of TP to the PTECs. TPS-LZM could be taken up by HK-2 cells, free TP would be degraded and released, mainly from basolateral side of the cells. Compared with TP, the overall targeting efficiency (TE) of TPS-LZM was significantly enhanced from 11.74% to 95.54% and its MRT was moderately prolonged from 3.08h to 4.10h. At very low concentration, TPS-LZM could significantly reverse the disease progression in renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury animal models, while the mixture of free TP and LZM was ineffective. Further, TPS-LZM conjugate presented much lower hepatotoxicity (0.78 folds lower than TP) and no adverse effect on the immune (1.13 folds higher than TP) and genital system. Thus, TPS-LZM represents a very effective drug candidate for specific treatment of immunological renal diseases with low adverse side effect.

D004337 Drug Carriers Forms to which substances are incorporated to improve the delivery and the effectiveness of drugs. Drug carriers are used in drug-delivery systems such as the controlled-release technology to prolong in vivo drug actions, decrease drug metabolism, and reduce drug toxicity. Carriers are also used in designs to increase the effectiveness of drug delivery to the target sites of pharmacological actions. Liposomes, albumin microspheres, soluble synthetic polymers, DNA complexes, protein-drug conjugates, and carrier erythrocytes among others have been employed as biodegradable drug carriers.

D004847 Epithelial Cells Cells that line the inner and outer surfaces of the body by forming cellular layers (EPITHELIUM) or masses. Epithelial cells lining the SKIN; the MOUTH; the NOSE; and the ANAL CANAL derive from ectoderm; those lining the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM and the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM derive from endoderm; others (CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM and LYMPHATIC SYSTEM) derive from mesoderm. Epithelial cells can be classified mainly by cell shape and function into squamous, glandular and transitional epithelial cells.
