Abstract
En 中文
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as promising diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in various diseases. However, there is currently a lack of molecular strategies that can effectively use disease-associated extracellular miRNAs as input signals to drive therapeutic functions. Herein, we present a modular and programmable miRNA-responsive chimeric DNA receptor (miRNA-CDR) capable of biomarker-driven therapy. By grafting a miRNA-responsive DNA nanodevice on a natural membrane receptor via aptamer anchoring, miRNA-CDR can sense extracellular miRNA levels and autonomously induce dimerization-mediated receptor activation via the complementary-mediated strand displacement reaction-induced dynamic DNA assembly. The sequence programmability of miRNA-CDR allows it to sense and respond to a user-defined miRNA with tunable sensitivity. Moreover, the miRNA-CDR is versatile and customizable to reprogram desirable signaling output via adapting a designated receptor, such as MET and FGFR1. Using a mouse model of drug-induced acute liver injury (DILI), we demonstrate the functionality of a designer miRNA-CDR in rewiring the recognition of the DILI-elevated miR-122 to promote MET signaling of hepatocytes for biomarker-driven in situ repair and liver function restoration. Our synthetic miRNA-CDR platform provides a novel molecular device enabling biomarker-driven therapeutic cellular response, potentially paving the way for improving the precision of cell therapy in regenerative medicine.
