 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Although marijuana is considered a controlled substance, cannabis research and the medical use of cannabis have shown significant promise for the treatment of numerous medical problems. Studies have demonstrated that exocannabinoids, THC and synthetic cannabinoids, including "Spice", interfere with the functions of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) present in the brain and required for neurogenesis. However, during cannabinoid abuse, significant impairments in neurocognitive and behavioral functions are evident and these effects are exacerbated in subjects with symptomatic HIV infection. The establishment of HIV latency in brain is supported by the inability of HIV drugs to cross BBB. In recent years, use of nanotechnology in medicine has shown exiting prospect for development of novel drug delivery systems. However, the existing technology suffers from lack of adequate transendothelial penetration as well as the uncertainty of drug release from the carrier if and when the nanocarrier reaches the brain. So from a drug delivery point of view, a fast and effective way of delivering and releasing latency-breaking agent, HIV drugs, and mAEA from the carrier in the brain is very much needed to eradicate HIV reservoir and to prevent exocannabinoid-induced neuronal impairments in HIV infected cannabinoid users. In the current proposal, we will examine the role of the blood brain barrier (BBB) impenetrable tenofovir, the stable endocannabinoid analog methanandamide (mAEA) to prevent the exocannabinoid- induced neuronal deficits using multifunctional nanocarrier bound mAEA delivery across the BBB using the in vitro BBB and in vivo HIVE SCID cannabinoid mouse model. Our recently published manuscript in "Nature Communication" describes magneto-electric nanoparticles (MENPs) as field triggered drug carriers offer an unique capability of low energy and dissipation free on-demand drug release across BBB. Our preliminary studies in CNS cells showed that vorinostat activates latently HIV-infected astrocytes, mAEA upregulates synaptic plasticity genes, mAEA down-regulates HIV-induced inflammatory molecules, and significantly down-regulates p24 levels. Accordingly in specific aim 1, we will develop and evaluate the transport, delivery, release on demand and efficacy of nanoformulations containing Vorinostat (VS), Tenofovir (Tef), and mAEA respectively to activate latent HIV infection, eradicate HIV and protect from HIV/cannabiniod induced neuronal deficits using an in-vitro BBB-HIV infection cannabinoid model. In specific aim 2, we will evaluate the in vivo efficacy of the developed nanocarrier in HIVE SCID cannabinoid mouse model, and in specific aim 3, the neurobehavioral modulations induced by nanoformulation in HIVE SCID cannabinoid mouse model will be studied. We expect that the unprecedented new 3-D technology could be of high significance in diagnostics and drug delivery. This multidisciplinary new break-through in specific drug targeting to the brain using MENPs is in response to PA-13-302 and will be useful for reactivation of latent HIV and final eradication of HIV from CNS reservoir and to treat cannabinoid-induced neuronal impairments in HIV subjects.

 描述（由申请人提供）：尽管大麻被认为是受控物质，但大麻研究和大麻的医疗用途已显示出治疗许多医疗问题的巨大前景。研究表明，外源大麻素、四氢大麻酚和合成大麻素，包括“香料”。 ，干扰大脑中存在的神经发生所需的内源性大麻素系统（ECS）的功能。然而，在大麻素滥用过程中，神经认知和行为功能明显受损，并且这些影响在有症状的艾滋病毒受试者中加剧。 HIV药物无法穿过血脑屏障，这支持了HIV在大脑中的潜伏期。近年来，纳米技术在医学上的应用显示出开发新型药物输送系统的广阔前景。充分的跨内皮渗透以及纳米载体到达大脑时药物释放的不确定性。因此，从药物递送的角度来看，这是一种快速有效的递送和释放潜伏破坏剂、HIV药物的方法。和来自载体的 mAEA非常需要在大脑中根除 HIV 储存库并防止 HIV 感染的大麻素使用者因外源性大麻素引起的神经元损伤。在当前的提案中，我们将研究难以穿透的血脑屏障（BBB）替诺福韦（稳定的）的作用。使用我们最近的体外 BBB 和体内 HIVE SCID 大麻素小鼠模型，使用多功能纳米载体结合 mAEA 跨 BBB 传递，内源性大麻素类似物甲烷酰胺 (mAEA) 可以预防外源性大麻素诱导的神经元缺陷。 《自然通讯》中发表的手稿描述了磁电纳米粒子（MENP）作为场触发药物载体，具有低能量和跨血脑屏障按需释放药物的独特能力。我们在中枢神经系统细胞中的初步研究表明，伏立诺他可以激活潜伏的艾滋病毒。 -感染的星形胶质细胞，mAEA上调突触可塑性基因，mAEA下调HIV诱导的炎症分子，并显着下调p24水平。因此，在具体目标 1 中，我们将开发和评估分别含有伏立诺他 (VS)、替诺福韦 (Tef) 和 mAEA 的纳米制剂的运输、递送、按需释放和功效，以激活潜伏的 HIV 感染、根除 HIV 并预防 HIV/在具体目标 2 中，我们将评估所开发的纳米载体在 HIVE SCID 大麻素小鼠中的体内功效。在具体目标 3 中，我们将研究 HIVE SCID 大麻素小鼠模型中纳米制剂诱导的神经行为调节，我们预计这种前所未有的新 3D 技术在诊断和药物输送方面具有重要意义。通过使用 MENP 靶向大脑的特定药物是对 PA-13-302 的响应，将有助于重新激活潜伏的 HIV 并最终根除 CNS 储存库中的 HIV 并治疗大麻素引起的 HIV 受试者神经元损伤。
