Overview

DVAP-Exo + MIT + siRNA targeting Notch1 is an experimental, exosome-based co-delivery system designed for the targeted treatment of liver fibrosis. The formulation consists of exosomes surface-modified with the DVAP peptide (a D-peptide ligand that specifically targets Vascular Adhesion Protein-1, VAP-1, which is overexpressed on activated hepatic stellate cells). These engineered exosomes encapsulate mitoxantrone (MIT), a cytotoxic small molecule, and a small interfering RNA (siRNA) directed against Notch1. The therapeutic strategy leverages the synergistic effects of mitoxantrone-induced apoptosis or senescence in activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and the silencing of Notch1 signaling, a critical pathway in HSC activation and fibrogenesis. By specifically targeting the activated HSCs, this delivery system aims to reduce the progression of liver fibrosis while minimizing systemic toxicity associated with mitoxantrone.
