By inhibiting acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, organophosphate compounds (OPs) can quickly cause severe injury to the nervous system and death, making it extremely difficult to rescue victims after OP exposure. However, it is quite challenging to construct scavengers that neutralize and eliminate these harmful chemical agents promptly in the blood circulation system. Herein, we report an enzyme-armed biomimetic nanoparticle that enables a 'targeted binding and catalytic degradation' action mechanism designed for highly efficient in vivo detoxification (denoted as 'Nanocleaner'). Specifically, the resulting Nanocleaner is fabricated with polymeric cores camouflaged with a modified red blood cell membrane (RBC membrane) that is inserted with the organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH) enzyme. In such a subtle construct, Nanocleaner inherits abundant acetylcholinesterase (AChE) on the surface of the RBC membrane, which can specifically lure and neutralize OPs through biological binding. The OPH enzyme on the membrane surface breaks down toxicants catalytically. The in vitro protective effects of Nanocleaner against methyl paraoxon (MPO)-induced inhibition of AChE activity were validated using both preincubation and competitive regimens. Furthermore, we selected the PC12 neuroendocrine cell line as an experimental model and confirmed the cytoprotective effects of Nanocleaner against MPO. In mice challenged with a lethal dose of MPO, Nanocleaner significantly reduces clinical signs of intoxication, rescues AChE activity and promotes the survival rate of mice challenged with lethal MPO. Overall, these results suggest considerable promise of enzyme-armed Nanocleaner for the highly efficient removal of OPs for clinical treatment.
通过抑制乙酰胆碱酯酶(AChE)的活性,有机磷化合物(OPs)能迅速对神经系统造成严重损伤,导致暴露于 OPs 后的患者救治极为困难。然而,构建能在血液循环系统中迅速中和并消除这些有害化学物质的清除剂极具挑战性。在此,我们报告了一种酶武装仿生纳米颗粒,其能实现“靶向结合和催化降解”的作用机制,从而设计出高效的体内解毒(表示为“Nanocleaner”)。具体来说,所得的 Nanocleaner 是由聚合物核心构建的,聚合物核心伪装成经过修饰的红细胞膜(RBC 膜),其中插入有机磷水解酶(OPH)酶。在这种微妙的结构中,Nanocleaner 继承了 RBC 膜表面丰富的乙酰胆碱酯酶(AChE),其可以通过生物结合特异性地吸引和中和 OPs。膜表面的 OPH 酶可以催化分解有毒物质。我们通过预孵育和竞争方案验证了 Nanocleaner 对甲基对氧磷(MPO)诱导的 AChE 活性抑制的体外保护作用。此外,我们选择 PC12 神经内分泌细胞系作为实验模型,证实了 Nanocleaner 对 MPO 的细胞保护作用。在接受致死剂量 MPO 挑战的小鼠中,Nanocleaner 显著减轻了中毒的临床症状,挽救了 AChE 活性,并提高了接受致死剂量 MPO 挑战的小鼠的存活率。总的来说,这些结果表明酶武装的 Nanocleaner 具有很高的去除 OPs 的潜力,有望用于临床治疗。
