Atherosclerosis, a chronic disease associated with metabolism, poses a significant risk to human well-being. Currently, existing treatments for atherosclerosis lack sufficient efficiency, while the utilization of surface-modified nanoparticles holds the potential to deliver highly effective therapeutic outcomes. These nanoparticles can target and bind to specific receptors that are abnormally over-expressed in atherosclerotic conditions. This paper reviews recent research (2018-present) advances in various ligand-modified nanoparticle systems targeting atherosclerosis by specifically targeting signature molecules in the hope of precise treatment at the molecular level and concludes with a discussion of the challenges and prospects in this field. The intention of this review is to inspire novel concepts for the design and advancement of targeted nanomedicines tailored specifically for the treatment of atherosclerosis.
动脉粥样硬化是一种与代谢相关的慢性疾病,对人类健康构成重大风险。目前,现有的动脉粥样硬化治疗方法效率不足,而表面改性纳米颗粒的应用有望带来高效的治疗效果。这些纳米颗粒可以靶向并结合在动脉粥样硬化状态下异常过度表达的特定受体。本文综述了近期(2018年至今)各种靶向动脉粥样硬化的配体修饰纳米颗粒系统的研究进展,这些系统通过特异性靶向标志性分子,以期在分子水平上实现精准治疗,并在最后讨论了该领域的挑战与前景。本综述旨在为专门用于治疗动脉粥样硬化的靶向纳米药物的设计和发展激发新的理念。
