ABSTRACT
Peptide ALW (ALWPPNLHAWVP) targeting anti-dsDNA antibodies has shown promising therapeutic effects in alleviating lupus nephritis, but is potentially limited by poor stability and non-kidney targeting. We recently developed a D-form modified ALW, called D-ALW, which the capacity to widely inhibit pathogenic polyclonal antibody reactions. Further modification of D-ALW using PEG-PLGA nanoparticles enhance good kidney-targeting ability extend half-life. Here, we demonstrate that maintains higher binding inhibition efficiencies achieves stability. Most importantly, exhibit excellent prolong half-life peptides BALB/c mice. Additionally, compared significantly reduce glomerular deposition IgG C3, improve renal histopathologies, such as proliferation inflammatory cells infiltration, markedly lifespan MRL/lpr lupus-prone Overall, these results establish offer synergistic benefits both safety efficacy, providing long-term preservation treatment advantages nephritis.
