The Development of Hyaluronan/Fucoidan-Based Nanoparticles as Macrophages Targeting an Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate Delivery System.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to develop a macrophage-targeted nanoparticle composed of hyaluronan/fucoidan complexes with polyethylene glycol-gelatin to encapsulate and deliver epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a compound that can regulate macrophage activation and pro-inflammatory mediator production. We show that our nanoparticles can successfully bond to macrophages and deliver more EGCG than an EGCG solution treatment, confirming the anti-inflammatory effects of these nanoparticles in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages. The prepared nanoparticles were established with a small mean particle size (217.00 ± 14.00 nm), an acceptable polydispersity index (0.28 ± 0.07), an acceptable zeta potential value (-33.60 ± 1.30 mV), and a high EGCG loading efficiency (52.08% ± 5.37%). The targeting abilities of CD44 binding were increased as the hyaluronan concentration increased and decreased by adding a competitor CD44 antibody. Moreover, we found that fucoidan treatment significantly reduced macrophage migration after lipopolysaccharide treatment in a dose-responsive manner. In summary, we successfully created macrophage-targeted nanoparticles for effective targeted delivery of EGCG, which should aid in the development of future anti-inflammatory drugs against macrophage-related diseases.

Project description:Intimal macrophages play a critical role in atherosclerotic lesion initiation and progression by taking up oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) and promoting inflammatory process. 1-(Palmitoyl)-2-(5-keto-6-octene-dioyl) phosphatidylcholine (KOdiA-PC), a major type of oxidized phosphatidylcholines (PC) found on oxLDL, has a high binding affinity to the macrophage scavenger receptor CD36 and participates in CD36-mediated recognition and uptake of oxLDL by intimal macrophages. We successfully synthesized epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)-loaded nanoparticles (Enano), which were composed of EGCG, PC, (+) alpha-tocopherol acetate, and surfactant. We also incorporated KOdiA-PC on the surface of Enano to make ligand-coated Enano (L-Enano) to target intimal macrophages. The objectives of this study were to determine the anti-atherogenic effects of Enano and L-Enano in LDL receptor null (LDLr-/-) mice. Our in vitro data demonstrated that L-Enano had a higher binding affinity to mouse peritoneal macrophages than Enano. This high binding affinity was diminished by CD36 antibodies or knockdown of the CD36 receptor in mouse peritoneal macrophages, confirming the specific binding of L-Enano to the macrophage CD36 receptor. LDLr-/- mice were randomly divided to six groups and received weekly tail vein injection with PBS, EGCG, void nanoparticles (Vnano), Enano, ligand-coated Vnano (L-Vnano), or L-Enano once per week for 22?weeks. The dose of EGCG was 25?mg per kg body weight. L-Enano at 20??g/mL significantly decreased production of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and interleukin-6 from mouse macrophages, while having no effect on their plasma levels compared to the PBS control. There were no significant differences in blood lipid profiles among six treatment groups. Mice treated with L-Enano also had significantly smaller lesion surface areas on aortic arches compared to the PBS control. Liver EGCG content was decreased by treatments in the order of EGCG>Enano>L-Enano. Native EGCG had inhibitory effects on liver and body fat accumulation. This molecular target approach signals an important step towards inhibiting atherosclerosis development via targeted delivery of bioactive compounds to intimal macrophages.
