AbstractObjective: Intra-articular drug delivery holds great promise for the treatment of joint diseases such as osteoarthritis. The objective of this study was to evaluate the TAT peptide transduction domain (TAT-PTD) as a potential intra-articular drug delivery technology for synovial joints. Design: Experiments examined the ability of TAT conjugates to associate with primary chondrocytes and alter cellular function both in vitro and in vivo. Further experiments examined the ability of the TAT-PTD to bind to human osteoarthritic cartilage. Results: The results show that the TAT-PTD associates with chondrocytes, is capable of delivering siRNA for chondrocyte gene knockdown, and that the recombinant enzyme TAT-Cre is capable of inducing in vivo genetic recombination within the knee joint in a reporter mouse model. Last, binding studies show that osteoarthritic cartilage preferentially uptakes the TAT-PTD from solution. Conclusions: The results suggest that the TAT-PTD is a promising delivery strategy for intra-articular therapeutics. see all
