Homing peptides to the spinal cord were identified and isolated using phage display technology. In vivo biopanning was performed by intravenous systemic injection of a phage library to screen specific peptides targeting the spinal cord of mice. Analyses of the sequences of targeted phages yielded two candidate peptides targeting the spinal cord: SP1 (C-LHQSPHI-C) and SP2 (C-PTNNPRS-C). These peptides were synthesized and intravenously injected into mice to evaluate their tissue specificity and potential as gene delivery carriers. The complexes between SP1 or SP2 peptides and the plasmid vector expressing the reporter gene could induce gene transduction in the spinal cord through systemic injection without gene expression in the brain, liver, and kidney. In addition, intravenous injection of the complex between SP1 and the vectors induced interleukin-4 expression in the spinal cord, resulting in effective suppression of lipopolysaccharide-induced hyperalgesia. Therefore, intravenously administered spinal cord homing peptides complexed with a plasmid vector provided tissue-specific treatment featuring gene delivery to the CNS through systemic circulation. This novel method of gene delivery is feasible and has great potential for clinical application.
