Macrophage membrane-coated nanocarriers Co-Modified by RVG29 and TPP improve brain neuronal mitochondria-targeting and therapeutic efficacy in Alzheimer's disease mice.

ABSTRACT: Neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction caused by excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an early event of sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD), and considered to be a key pathologic factor in the progression of AD. The targeted delivery of the antioxidants to mitochondria of injured neurons in brain is a promising therapeutic strategy for AD. A safe and effective drug delivery system (DDS) which is able to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and target neuronal mitochondria is necessary. Recently, bioactive materials-based DDS has been widely investigated for the treatment of AD. Herein, we developed macrophage (MA) membrane-coated solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) by attaching rabies virus glycoprotein (RVG29) and triphenylphosphine cation (TPP) molecules to the surface of MA membrane (RVG/TPP-MASLNs) for functional antioxidant delivery to neuronal mitochondria. According to the results, MA membranes camouflaged the SLNs from being eliminated by RES-rich organs by inheriting the immunological characteristics of macrophages. The unique properties of the DDS after decoration with RVG29 on the surface was demonstrated by the ability to cross the BBB and the selective targeting to neurons. After entering the neurons in CNS, TPP further lead the DDS to mitochondria driven by electric charge. The Genistein (GS)- encapsulated DDS (RVG/TPP-MASLNs-GS) exhibited the most favorable effects on reliveing AD symptoms in vitro and in vivo by the synergies gained from the combination of MA membranes, RVG29 and TPP. These results demonstrated a promising therapeutic candidate for delaying the progression of AD via neuronal mitochondria-targeted delivery by the designed biomimetic nanosystems.

Project description:IntroductionReducing the protein adsorption of nanoparticles (NPs) as drug carriers to slow their rapid clearance by macrophages uptake is a critical challenge for NPs clinical translational applications. Despite extensive research efforts to inhibit cellular uptake, including covering biological agents or surface chemical coatings to impart "stealth" properties to NPs, their stability remains insufficient.ObjectivesDeveloped a novel surface modification technology based on a physical infusion engineering approach to achieve persistent inhibition of protein adhesion and cellular uptake by nanocarriers.MethodsThe nanoparticles were prepared based on conventional drug carrier mesoporous silica NPs through a two-step process. A functional nanoscale slippery surface was formed by grafting "liquid-like" brushes on the particles surface, and then a lubricant-entrenched slippery surfaces (LESS) was formed by infusing silicone oil lubricant into the entire surface. Co-incubation with macrophages (in vitro and in vivo) was used to examine the anti-uptake properties of modified NPs. The anti-adhesion properties of LESS coating surfaces to various liquids, proteins and cells were used to analyze the anti-uptake mechanism. Loaded with drugs, combined with tumor models, to evaluate the drug utilization of modified NPs.ResultsRelying on the stable and slippery LESS coating, the modified surface could prevent the adhesion of various liquids and effectively shield against the adhesion of proteins and cells, as well as remarkably reduce macrophage cellular uptake in vitro and in vivo. In addition, the LESS coating does not affect cell activity and allows NPs to be loaded with drugs, significantly improving the utilization of drugs in vitro and in vivo. This allows the NPs to reach to the target tumor site for drug delivery without active clearance by macrophages.ConclusionOur research introduces a new nanocarrier technology to improve anti-biofouling performance and stealth efficiency that will facilitate the development of nanomedicines for clinical transformation applications.
