Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of the most common autoimmune diseases worldwide, causing severe cartilage damage and disability. Despite the recent progress made in RA treatment, limitations remain in achieving early and efficient therapeutic intervention. Advanced therapeutic strategies are in high demand, and siRNA-based therapeutic technology with a gene-silencing ability represents a new approach for RA treatment. In this study, we created a cationic delivery micelle consisting of low-molecular-weight (LMW) polyethylenimine (PEI)-cholesterol-polyethylene glycol (PEG) (LPCE) for small interfering RNA (siRNA)-based RA gene therapy. The carrier is based on LMW PEI and modified with cholesterol and PEG. With these two modifications, the LPCE micelle becomes multifunctional, and it efficiently delivered siRNA to macrophages with a high efficiency greater than 70%. The synthesized LPCE exhibits strong siRNA protection ability and high safety. By delivering nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) p65 siRNA, the p65 siRNA/LPCE complex efficiently inhibited macrophage-based cytokine release in vitro. Local administration of the p65 siRNA/LPCE complex exhibited a fast and potent anti-inflammatory effect against RA in a mouse model. According to the results of this study, the functionalized LPCE micelle that we prepared has potential gene therapeutic implications for RA.
