Systemic delivery of proresolving lipid mediators resolvin D2 and maresin 1 attenuates intimal hyperplasia in mice.

ABSTRACT: Vascular injury induces a potent inflammatory response that influences vessel remodeling and patency, limiting long-term benefits of cardiovascular interventions such as angioplasty. Specialized proresolving lipid mediators (SPMs) derived from ?-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids [eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)] orchestrate resolution in diverse settings of acute inflammation. We hypothesized that systemic administration of DHA-derived SPMs [resolvin D2 (RvD2) and maresin 1 (MaR1)] would influence vessel remodeling in a mouse model of arterial neointima formation (carotid ligation). In vitro, SPM treatment inhibited mouse aortic smooth muscle cell migration (IC?? ? 1 nM) to a PDGF gradient and reduced TNF-?-stimulated p65 translocation, superoxide production, and proinflammatory gene expression (MCP-1). In vivo, adult FVB mice underwent unilateral carotid artery ligation with administration of RvD2, MaR1, or vehicle (100 ng by intraperitoneal injection at 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 d after ligation). In ligated carotid arteries at 4 d, SPM treatment was associated with reduced cell proliferation and neutrophil and macrophage recruitment and increased polarization of M2 macrophages in the arterial wall. Neointimal hyperplasia (at 14 d) was notably attenuated in RvD2 (62%)- and MaR1 (67%)-treated mice, respectively. Modulation of resolution pathways may offer new opportunities to regulate the vascular injury response and promote vascular homeostasis.

Project description:Resolvins D1 and D2 (RvDs) are structural isomers and metabolites of docosahexaenoic acid, an omega-3 fatty acid, enzymatically produced in our body in response to acute inflammation or microbial invasion. Resolvins have been shown to play an essential role in the resolution of inflammation, tissue repair, and return to homeostasis and thus are actively pursued as potential therapeutics in treating inflammatory disorders and infectious diseases. However, effective in vivo delivery of RvDs continues to be a challenging task. Recent studies demonstrated that RvD1 or RvD2 loaded in cell membrane-derived nanovesicles significantly increased therapeutic efficacy in treating murine peritonitis and ischemic stroke, respectively. The mechanistic details of how the subtle structural difference between RvD1 and RvD2 alters their molecular interactions with the membrane lipids of the nanovesicles and thus affects the loading efficiency remain unknown. Here, we report the encapsulation profiles of the neutral and ionized species of both RvD1 and RvD2 determined with the cell membrane-derived nanovesicles at pH values 5.4 and 7.4, respectively. Also, we performed microsecond time-scale all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in explicit water to elucidate the molecular interactions of both neutral and ionized species of RvD1 and RvD2 with the lipid bilayer using a model membrane system, containing 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) and cholesterol. We found that the differences in the position and chirality of hydroxyl groups in RvD1 and RvD2 affected their location, orientation, and conformations within the bilayer. Surprisingly, the deprotonation of their carboxyl group caused their orientation and conformation to change from a fully extended one that is oriented in parallel to the membrane plane to a J-shaped bent conformation that is oriented perpendicular to the bilayer plane. Our studies offer valuable insight into the molecular interactions of RvD1/D2 with the lipid bilayer in atomistic details and provide a mechanistic explanation for the observed differences in the encapsulation profiles of RvD1 and RvD2, which may facilitate the rational design of nanovesicle-based therapeutics for treating inflammatory diseases.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Intimal hyperplasia (IH) remains a major cause of poor patient outcomes after surgical revascularization to treat atherosclerosis. A multitude of drugs have been shown to prevent the development of IH. Moreover, endovascular drug delivery following angioplasty and stenting has been achieved with a marked diminution in the incidence of restenosis. Despite advances in endovascular drug delivery, there is currently no clinically available method of periadventitial drug delivery suitable for open vascular reconstructions. Herein we provide an overview of the recent literature regarding innovative polymer platforms for periadventitial drug delivery in preclinical models of IH as well as insights about barriers to clinical translation. METHODS:A comprehensive PubMed search confined to the past 15years was performed for studies of periadventitial drug delivery. Additional searches were performed for relevant clinical trials, patents, meeting abstracts, and awards of NIH funding. RESULTS:Most of the research involving direct periadventitial delivery without a drug carrier was published prior to 2000. Over the past 15years there have been a surge of reports utilizing periadventitial drug-releasing polymer platforms, most commonly bioresorbable hydrogels and wraps. These methods proved to be effective for the inhibition of IH in various animal models (e.g. balloon angioplasty, wire injury, and vein graft), but very few have advanced to clinical trials. There are a number of barriers that may account for this lack of translation. Promising new approaches including the use of nanoparticles will be described. CONCLUSIONS:No periadventitial drug delivery system has reached clinical application. For periadventitial delivery, polymer hydrogels, wraps, and nanoparticles exhibit overlapping and complementary properties. The ideal periadventitial delivery platform would allow for sustained drug release yet exert minimal mechanical and inflammatory stresses to the vessel wall. A clinically applicable strategy for periadventitial drug delivery would benefit thousands of patients undergoing open vascular reconstruction each year.
