Abstract

A brain delivery probe was prepared by covalently conjugating lactoferrin (Lf) to a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-coated Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticle in order to facilitate the transport of the nanoparticles across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) by receptor-mediated transcytosis via the Lf receptor present on cerebral endothelial cells. The efficacy of the Fe(3)O(4)-Lf conjugate to cross the BBB was evaluated in vitro using a cell culture model for the blood-brain barrier as well as in vivo in SD rats. For an in vitro experiment, a well-established porcine BBB model was used based on the primary culture of cerebral capillary endothelial cells grown on filter supports, thus allowing one to follow the transfer of nanoparticles from the apical (blood) to the basolateral (brain) side. For in vivo experiments, SD rats were used as animal model to detect the passage of the nanoparticles through the BBB by MRI techniques. The results of both in vitro and in vivo experiments revealed that the Fe(3)O(4)-Lf probe exhibited an enhanced ability to cross the BBB in comparison to the PEG-coated Fe(3)O(4) nanoparticles and further suggested that the Lf-receptor-mediated transcytosis was an effective measure for delivering the nanoparticles across the BBB.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
