Kupffer Cell Release of Platelet Activating Factor Drives Dose Limiting Toxicities of Nucleic Acid Nanocarriers
2020-02-12
Abstract excerpt
In vivo nanocarrier-associated toxicity is a significant and poorly understood hurdle to clinical translation of siRNA nanomedicines. In this work, we demonstrate that platelet activating factor (PAF), an inflammatory lipid mediator, plays a key role in nanocarrier-associated toxicities, and that prophylactic inhibition of the PAF receptor (PAFR) completely prevents these toxicities. High-dose intravenous injectio...
