Topische Therapien

ZusammenfassungDie Behandlung neuropathischer Schmerzen mit systemisch wirksamen oral verabreichten Pharmaka ist bei vielen Patienten wirksam, kann jedoch zu zentralnervösen unerwünschten Wirkungen wie Müdigkeit oder Schwindel führen. Daher sind in den letzten Jahren topische Therapien in das Zentrum der Aufmerksamkeit gerückt. Botulinumtoxin, etabliert in der Therapie von Dystonien und Spastik, wurde zunehmend bei Schmerzerkrankungen getestet, hierbei ist Botulinum-Neurotoxin A der am besten untersuchte Serotyp. Die häufigsten Indikationen waren Schmerzen im Trigeminusversorgungsbereich und periphere neuropathische Schmerzen. Bei den meisten Studien war Botulinum-Neurotoxin A Placebo deutlich überlegen. Präklinische Studien zum Wirkmechanismus erbrachten die Erkenntnis, dass neben dem erwarteten peripheren Effekt sehr wahrscheinlich auch eine zentrale Reduktion der Ausschüttung von exzitatorischen Neurotransmittern an der Wirkung beteiligt ist.

Therapeutic Compounds

Botulinum toxin is an exceedingly potent inhibitor of neurotransmission across the neuromuscular junction, causing flaccid paralysis and death. The potential for misuse of this deadly poison as a bioweapon has added a greater urgency to the search for effective therapeutics. The development of sensitive and efficient cell-based assays for the evaluation of toxin antagonists is crucial to the rapid and successful identification of therapeutic compounds. The authors evaluated the sensitivity of primary cultures from 4 distinct regions of the embryonic chick nervous system to botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) cleavage of synaptosomal-associated protein of 25 kD (SNAP-25). Although differences in sensitivity were apparent, SNAP-25 cleavage was detectable in neuronal cells from each of the 4 regions within 3 h at BoNT/A concentrations of 1 nM or lower. Co-incubation of chick neurons with BoNT/A and toxin-neutralizing antibodies inhibited SNAP-25 cleavage, demonstrating the utility of these cultures for the assay of BoNT/A antagonists.

AbstractBotulinum neurotoxin (BoNT), produced by Clostridium botulinum, is generally known to be the most poisonous of all biological toxins. In this study, we evaluate the protection conferred by intratracheal (i.t.) inoculation immunization with recombinant Hc subunit (AHc) vaccines against aerosolized BoNT/A intoxication. Three AHc vaccine formulations, i.e., conventional liquid, dry powder produced by spray freeze drying, and AHc dry powder reconstituted in water are prepared, and mice are immunized via i.t. inoculation or subcutaneous (s.c.) injection. Compared with s.c.-AHc-immunized mice, i.t.-AHc-immunized mice exhibit a slightly stronger protection against a challenge with 30,000× LD50 aerosolized BoNT/A. Of note, only i.t.-AHc induces a significantly higher level of toxin-neutralizing mucosal secretory IgA (SIgA) production in the bronchoalveolar lavage of mice. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that the immune protection conferred by the three formulations of AHc is comparable, while i.t. immunization of AHc is superior to s.c. immunization against aerosolized BoNT/A intoxication.
