Evaluation of the potential therapeutic effects of a double-stranded RNA mimic complexed with polycations in an experimental mouse model of endometriosis.
Objective To assess the therapeutic potential of polyinosine-polycytidylic acid, a double-stranded RNA molecule with selective proapoptotic and antiangiogenic activity, complexed with polyethyleneimine (pIC PEI ) in treating endometriosis. Design A heterologous mouse model of endometriosis was created by injecting human endometrial fragments into the peritoneum. Endometrial fragments were engineered to express the fluorescent protein mCherry as a reporter to monitor status over the course of the 4-week study. Setting University-affiliated infertility center. Animal(s) Ovariectomized and hormone-replaced nude mice (n = 30) injected with fluorescent-labeled human endometrial fragments at 4–6 …
Evaluation of the antiproliferative, proapoptotic, and antiangiogenic effects of a double-stranded RNA mimic complexed with polycations in an experimental mouse model of leiomyoma.
Objective To assess the antiproliferative, proapoptotic, and antiangiogenic effects of the double-stranded RNA mimic polyinosine-polycytidylic acid (pIC) complexed with polyethylenimine [pIC PEI ] in xenografted human leiomyomas. Design Heterologous leiomyoma mouse model. Setting University-affiliated infertility center. Animal(s) Ovariectomized and hormone-replaced nude mice (n = 16) who received human leiomyoma fragment transplantation. Intervention(s) Leiomyoma fragments placed in the peritoneum of 5-week-old nude female mice and treated with the vehicle (n = 8) or 0.6 mg/kg [pIC PEI ] (n = 8) for 4 weeks. Main Outcome Measure(s) The size of the leiomyoma implants, and cellular prolifera…
