To develop biocompatible and bioresorbable negatively charged calcium phosphate nanoparticles (CaP-NPs) as an innovative therapeutic system for the delivery of bioactive molecules to the heart.
MATERIALS & METHODS: CaP-NPs were synthesized via a straightforward one-pot biomineralization-inspired protocol employing citrate as a stabilizing agent and regulator of crystal growth. CaP-NPs were administered to cardiac cells in vitro and effects of treatments were assessed. CaP-NPs were administered in vivo and delivery of microRNAs was evaluated.
CaP-NPs efficiently internalized into cardiomyocytes without promoting toxicity or interfering with any functional properties. CaP-NPs successfully encapsulated synthetic microRNAs, which were efficiently delivered into cardiac cells in vitro and in vivo.
CaP-NPs are a safe and efficient drug-delivery system for potential therapeutic treatments of polarized cells such as cardiomyocytes.
开发具有生物相容性和生物可吸收性的带负电荷的磷酸钙纳米颗粒（CaP-NPs），作为一种将生物活性分子输送到心脏的创新治疗系统。
通过一种简单的一锅法生物矿化启发方案合成CaP-NPs，该方案使用柠檬酸盐作为稳定剂和晶体生长调节剂。将CaP-NPs体外施用于心脏细胞，并评估治疗效果。将CaP-NPs体内给药，并评估微小RNA的递送情况。
CaP-NPs能有效内化到心肌细胞中，而不会促进毒性或干扰任何功能特性。CaP-NPs成功包裹了合成的微小RNA，这些微小RNA在体外和体内均能有效地递送至心脏细胞。
CaP-NPs是一种安全有效的药物递送系统，可用于对极化细胞如心肌细胞进行潜在的治疗。
