Improved Antiviral Activity of Classical Swine Fever Virus-Targeted Sirna by Tetrahedral Framework Nucleic Acid-Enhanced Delivery
ACS applied materials & interfaces(2021)
摘要
DNA self-assembled nanostructures have been considered as effective vehicles for biomolecule delivery because of their excellent biocompatibility, cellular permeability, noncytotoxicity, and small size. Here, we report an efficient antiviral strategy with self-assembled tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs) delivering small interfering RNA (t-siRNA) to silence classical swine fever virus (CSFV) gene in porcine host cells. In this study, two previously reported siRNAs, C3 and C6, specifically targeting the CSFV genome were selected and modified on tFNAs, respectively, and termed t-C3 and t-C6. Results indicate that t-C3 and t-C6 can inhibit the viral proliferation of CSFV in kidney derived porcine cells, PK-15, effectively and that inhibition was markedly stronger than free siRNA-C3 or siRNA-C6 only. In addition, the DNA nanostructure also has high cargo-carrying capacity, allowing to deliver multiple functional groups. To improve the antiviral ability of tFNAs, a dual-targeting DNA nanostructure t-C3-C6 was constructed and used to silence the CSFV gene in porcine host cells. This study found that t-C3-C6 can inhibit the viral release and replication, exhibiting outstanding anti-CSFV capabilities. Therefore, these dual-targeting tFNAs have great potential in virus therapy. This strategy not only provides a novel method to inhibit CSFV replication in porcine cells but also verifies that tFNAs are effective tools for delivery of antiviral elements, which have great application potential.
