Among cardiovascular diseases, thrombotic diseases such as ischemic heart disease and acute ischemic strokes are the most lethal, responsible by themselves for a quarter of worldwide deaths. While surgical treatments exist, they may not be used in all situations, and systemic thrombolytic drug injection, such as recombinant tissue plasminogen activators (rtPA), often remains necessary, despite serious limitations including short therapeutic window, severe side effects, and failure to address the complex nature of thrombi. This prompted intense research into alternative thrombolytics or delivery methods, including nanomedicine. However, most nanoparticles face issues of stability, biocompatibility, or synthesis robustness; among them, polymeric nanoparticles, though usually versatile and biocompatible, sometimes lack robustness and may involve toxic or complex synthesis. Here, we present polysaccharide hydrogel nanoparticles designed with an improved microemulsion-based approach that allowed a critical size reduction from microparticles to 315 nm nanoparticles. They were decorated with fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide capable of high affinity binding to P-selectin, a thrombi biomarker. These nanoparticles exhibited good stability, adequate size, biocompatibility, and targeting capacity and could be loaded with two different drugs, rtPA (fibrin degradation) or DNase I (degradation of neutrophil extracellular traps, or NETs), to exert thrombolysis. Notably, improved synergic thrombolysis was demonstrated on NET-containing thrombi, while in vivo thrombolysis shed light into improved thrombolysis of rtPA-loaded nanoparticles at 50 and 10% the recommended dose without secondary embolization. These safe, robust, and easy-to-make nanoparticles could provide effective delivery strategies for thrombolytic treatments while demonstrating the potential of polysaccharide nanoparticles as drug-delivery agents.
在心血管疾病中,诸如缺血性心脏病和急性缺血性中风等血栓性疾病是最致命的,它们自身导致了全球四分之一的死亡。虽然存在外科治疗方法,但并非在所有情况下都能使用,而且全身性溶栓药物注射,如重组组织型纤溶酶原激活剂(rtPA),尽管存在严重局限性,包括治疗窗口短、严重副作用以及无法解决血栓的复杂性质,但往往仍然是必要的。这促使人们对替代溶栓剂或给药方法进行深入研究,包括纳米医学。然而,大多数纳米颗粒面临稳定性、生物相容性或合成稳健性等问题;其中,聚合物纳米颗粒虽然通常具有通用性和生物相容性,但有时缺乏稳健性,可能涉及有毒或复杂的合成过程。在此,我们展示了一种基于改进微乳液法设计的多糖水凝胶纳米颗粒,该方法使颗粒尺寸从微粒大幅减小至315纳米的纳米颗粒。它们用岩藻依聚糖进行了修饰,岩藻依聚糖是一种硫酸化多糖,能够与血栓生物标志物P-选择素进行高亲和力结合。这些纳米颗粒表现出良好的稳定性、合适的尺寸、生物相容性和靶向能力,并且可以负载两种不同的药物,rtPA(纤维蛋白降解)或DNase I(中性粒细胞胞外陷阱降解,即NETs降解),以发挥溶栓作用。值得注意的是,在含NETs的血栓上证明了协同溶栓效果得到改善,而体内溶栓研究揭示了在推荐剂量的50%和10%时,负载rtPA的纳米颗粒的溶栓效果得到改善,且无二次栓塞。这些安全、稳健且易于制备的纳米颗粒可为溶栓治疗提供有效的给药策略,同时展示了多糖纳米颗粒作为药物递送剂的潜力。
