摘要

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is essential for the survival of both peripheral ganglion cells and central cholinergic neurons of the basal forebrain. The accelerated loss of central cholinergic neurons during Alzheimer's disease may be a determinant of dementia and this may suggest a possible therapeutic benefit for NGF. However, NGF as all other neurotrophic factors does not significantly penetrate the blood brain barrier, the fact that makes its clinical usefulness depends on the use of suitable carrier system enhances its transport through BBB. The present investigation examines brain delivery of nerve growth factor adsorbed on poly(butylcyanoacryate) nanoparticles coated with polysorbate-80 and testing its effectiveness in reversing of scopolamine-induced amnesia in model of acute amnesia in rats using the passive avoidance reflex (PAR) test. Systemic administration of NGF adsorbed on PBCA-nanoparticles coated with polysorbate-80 successfully reversed scopolamine-induced amnesia and improved recognition and memory in acute amnesia rat model. This appeared in form of significant increase in the mean latent period of (PAR) test in the group of animals treated with NGF adsorbed on PBCA-nanoparticles coated with polysorbate-80 compared with the group treated with free NGF. In summary, these results demonstrate that, using poly(butylcyanoacrylate) nanoparticles coated with polysorbate-80 as a carrier system is effective in targeting NGF to the central nervous system and may optimize the therapy of age-related neurodegenerative diseases. Introduction Nerve growth factor (NGF) which was discovered in the early 1950s, when it was found that; mouse sarcoma tissue transplants in chicken embryos caused an increase in the size of spinal ganglia, was the prototypical neurotrophic factor for many decades (1). It represents the most known and studied trophic factor, which acts on sensory and sympathetic neurons of the peripheral nervous system, and on basal forebrain and striatal cholinergic neurons of the central nervous system (2). The specificity and trophic actions of NGF on these neuronal populations and its efficacy in preventing neurodegeneration have led to its proposal for evaluation in the treatment of neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, diabetic neuropathies and Huntinton’s disease. Preclinical and clinical studies carried out on animal models and patients with diagnosis of these diseases have revealed satisfactory results (3). The cloning studies demonstrated that; NGF is a member of a gene family dubbed neurotrophins, comprising in mammals also NT-3 and NT-4/5. Currently, six neurotrophins have been isolated: NGF, BDNF, NT-3, NT-4 (also known as NT-5), NT-6, and NT-7. There is substantial evidence that they all arose through successive duplications of the genome of an ancestral chordate (4). The chemical structure of NGF was well studied. It consists of 3 types of subunits, alpha, beta and gamma, which specifically interact to form a 7S, 130,000-molecular weight complex. This complex contains 2 identical 118-amino acid beta-chains, which are solely responsible for nerve growth stimulating activity of NGF (5,6). NGF is synthesized from a precursor peptide “proneutrophin” which has low biological activity compared with the parent members of neurotropins, and is activated by peptide cleavage via enzymatic processes occur at the site of its synthesis (7). After release in target areas of NGF-responsive neurons, nerve growth factor binds to specific cell-surface receptors on the nerve terminals and is retrogradely transported to the cell bodies (8). NGF mediates its cellular responses through binding to two distinct types of cell surface receptors: the high affinity (Trk NTR), family of receptor tyrosine kinases, which exhibit high selectivity for neurotrophin binding, and the low-affinity (p75 NTR) neurotrophin receptor, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor family that binds all neurotrophins with similar af
