Abstract
Treatment of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases using biologic therapies is limited due to the blood-brain barrier (BBB). This study explores a clinically validated approach to bypass the BBB for the purposes of direct central nervous system (CNS) delivery of antibodies using the Minimally Invasive Nasal Depot (MIND) technique. Using a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mouse model of neuroinflammation, we evaluated the efficacy of MIND in delivering a BBB impermeant full-length anti-IL-1β antibody. The results demonstrated that MIND delivery resulted in a significant reduction in IL-1β levels and microglial activation in relevant brain regions, notably outperforming conventional intravenous (IV) administration. These results underscore the ability of the MIND approach to transform the treatment landscape for a range of neurodegenerative diseases by enabling the targeted delivery of otherwise BBB impermeant therapeutics.
