Universal cell membrane camouflaged nano-prodrugs with right-side-out orientation adapting for positive pathological vascular remodeling in atherosclerosis. Chem Sci 2024; 15:7524-7544. [PMID: 38784734 PMCID: PMC11110172 DOI: 10.1039/d4sc00761a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
A right-side-out orientated self-assembly of cell membrane-camouflaged nanotherapeutics is crucial for ensuring their biological functionality inherited from the source cells. In this study, a universal and spontaneous right-side-out coupling-driven ROS-responsive nanotherapeutic approach, based on the intrinsic affinity between phosphatidylserine (PS) on the inner leaflet and PS-targeted peptide modified nanoparticles, has been developed to target foam cells in atherosclerotic plaques. Considering the increased osteopontin (OPN) secretion from foam cells in plaques, a bioengineered cell membrane (OEM) with an overexpression of integrin α9β1 is integrated with ROS-cleavable prodrugs, OEM-coated ETBNPs (OEM-ETBNPs), to enhance targeted drug delivery and on-demand drug release in the local lesion of atherosclerosis. Both in vitro and in vivo experimental results confirm that OEM-ETBNPs are able to inhibit cellular lipid uptake and simultaneously promote intracellular lipid efflux, regulating the positive cellular phenotypic conversion. This finding offers a versatile platform for the biomedical applications of universal cell membrane camouflaging biomimetic nanotechnology.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and its complications are a high-incidence disease worldwide. Numerous studies have shown that blood flow shear has a huge impact on the function of vascular endothelial cells, and it plays an important role in gene regulation of pro-inflammatory, pro-thrombotic, pro-oxidative stress, and cell permeability. Many important endothelial cell mechanosensitive genes have been discovered, including KLK10, CCN gene family, NRP2, YAP, TAZ, HIF-1α, NF-κB, FOS, JUN, TFEB, KLF2/KLF4, NRF2, and ID1. Some of them have been intensively studied, whereas the relevant regulatory mechanism of other genes remains unclear. Focusing on these mechanosensitive genes will provide new strategies for therapeutic intervention in atherosclerotic vascular disease. Thus, this article reviews the mechanosensitive genes affecting vascular endothelial cells, including classical pathways and some newly screened genes, and summarizes the latest research progress on their roles in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis to reveal effective therapeutic targets of drugs and provide new insights for anti-atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Biomechanical forces, including vascular shear stress, cyclic stretching, and extracellular matrix stiffness, which influence mechanosensitive channels in the plasma membrane, determine cell function in atherosclerosis. Being highly associated with the formation of atherosclerotic plaques, endocytosis is the key point in molecule and macromolecule trafficking, which plays an important role in lipid transportation. The process of endocytosis relies on the mobility and tension of the plasma membrane, which is sensitive to biomechanical forces. Several studies have advanced the signal transduction between endocytosis and biomechanics to elaborate the developmental role of atherosclerosis. Meanwhile, increased plaque growth also results in changes in the structure, composition and morphology of the coronary artery that contribute to the alteration of arterial biomechanics. These cross-links of biomechanics and endocytosis in atherosclerotic plaques play an important role in cell function, such as cell phenotype switching, foam cell formation, and lipoprotein transportation. We propose that biomechanical force activates the endocytosis of vascular cells and plays an important role in the development of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Mechanobiology focuses on a series of important physiopathological processes, such as how cells perceive different mechanomechanical stimuli, the process of intracellular mechanotransduction, and how mechanical signals determine the behavior and fate of cells. From the initial stage of embryogenesis, to developmental biology and regenerative medicine, or even through the whole life process, mechanical signaling cascades and cellular mechanical responses in mechanobiology are of great significance in biomedical research. In recent years, research in the field of mechanobiology has undergone remarkable development. Several scientific consortia around the world have been analyzing mechanobiological processes from different perspectives, aiming to gain insights into the regulatory mechanisms by which mechanical factors affect cell fate determination. In this article, we summarized and reviewed the topics that have attracted more research interests in recent years in the field of mechanobiology, for example, arterial blood vessels, stem cell, and ion channel. We also discussed the potential trends that may emerge, such as nuclear deformation, fibrous extracellular matrix, tumor mechanobiology, cellular mechanotransduction, and piezo ion channels. In addition, we put forward new ideas concerning the limitations of mechanism research and the importance of big data analysis and mining in this field, thereby providing objective support and a systematic framework for grasping the hot research topics and exploring new research directions in the field of mechanobiology.

Senescent endothelial cells' response to the degradation of bioresorbable scaffold induces intimal dysfunction accelerating in-stent restenosis. Acta Biomater 2023; 166:266-277.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a typical age-related disease accompanied by stiffening arteries. We aimed to elucidate the influence of aged arteries on in-stent restenosis (ISR) after the implantation of bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS). Histology and optical coherence tomography showed increased lumen loss and ISR in the aged abdominal aorta of Sprague-Dawley rats, with apparent scaffold degradation and deformation, which induce lower wall shear stress (WSS). This was also the case at the distal end of BRS, where the scaffolds degraded faster, and significant lumen loss was followed by a lower WSS. In addition, early thrombosis, inflammation, and delayed re-endothelialization were presented in the aged arteries. Degradation of BRS causes more senescent cells in the aged vasculature, increasing endothelial cell dysfunction and the risk of ISR. Thus, profoundly understanding the mechanism between BRS and senescent cells may give a meaningful guide for the age-related scaffold design. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The degradation of bioresorbable scaffolds aggravates senescent endothelial cells and a much lower wall shear stress areas in the aged vasculature, lead to intimal dysfunction and increasing in-stent restenosis risk. Early thrombosis and inflammation, as well as delayed re-endothelialization, are presented in the aged vasculature after bioresorbable scaffolds implantation. Age stratification during the clinical evaluation and senolytics in the design of new bioresorbable scaffolds should be considered, especially for old patients.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) hold tremendous targeting potential in cardiovascular disease and regenerative medicine, and exciting clinical applications are coming into light. Vascular endothelial cells (ECs) exposure to different magnitudes and patterns of shear stress (SS) generated by blood flow could engulf NPs in the blood. However, an unclear understanding of the role of SS on NP uptake is hindering the progress in improving the targeting of NP therapies. Here, the temporal and spatial distribution of SS in vascular ECs and the effect of different SS on NP uptake in ECs are highlighted. The mechanism of SS affecting NP uptake through regulating the cellular ROS level, endothelial glycocalyx and membrane fluidity is summarized, and the molecules containing clathrin and caveolin in the engulfment process are elucidated. SS targeting NPs are expected to overcome the current bottlenecks and change the field of targeting nanomedicine. This assessment on how SS affects the cell uptake of NPs and the marginalization of NPs in blood vessels could guide future research in cell biology and vascular targeting drugs.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cornerstones of intercellular communication with exciting fundamental, clinical, and more broadly biotechnological applications. However, variability in EV composition, which results from the culture conditions used to generate the EVs, poses significant fundamental and applied challenges and a hurdle for scalable bioprocessing. Thus, an understanding of the relationship between EV production (and for clinical applications, manufacturing) and EV composition is increasingly recognized as important and necessary. While chemical stimulation and culture conditions such as cell density are known to influence EV biology, the impact of biomechanical forces on the generation, properties, and biological activity of EVs remains poorly understood. Given the omnipresence of these forces in EV preparation and in biomanufacturing, expanding the understanding of their impact on EV composition-and thus, activity-is vital. Although several publications have examined EV preparation and bioprocessing and briefly discussed biomechanical stresses as variables of interest, this review represents the first comprehensive evaluation of the impact of such stresses on EV production, composition and biological activity. We review how EV biogenesis, cargo, efficacy, and uptake are uniquely affected by various types, magnitudes, and durations of biomechanical forces, identifying trends that emerge both generically and for individual cell types. We also describe implications for scalable bioprocessing, evaluating processes inherent in common EV production and isolation methods, and propose a path forward for rigorous EV quality control.

Abstract
In recent years, the fabrication of nano-drug delivery systems for targeted treatment of thrombus has become a research hotspot. In this study, we intend to construct a biomimetic nanomedicine for targeted thrombus treatment. The poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) was selected as the nanocarrier material. Then, urokinase and perfluoro-n-pentane (PFP) were co-loaded into PLGA by the double emulsification solvent evaporation method to prepare phase change nanoparticles PPUNPs. Subsequently, the RGD peptide-modified red blood cell membrane (RBCM) was coated on the surface of PPUNPs to prepare a biomimetic nano-drug carrier (RGD-RBCM@PPUNPs). The as-prepared RGD-RBCM@PPUNPs possessed a "core-shell" structure, have good dispersibility, and inherited the membrane protein composition of RBCs. Under ultrasound stimulation, the loaded urokinase could be rapidly released. In vitro cell experiments showed that RGD-RBCM@PPUNPs had good hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. Due to the coated RGD-RBC membrane, RGD-RBCM@PPUNPs could effectively inhibit the uptake of macrophages. In addition, RGD-RBCM@PPUNPs showed better thrombolytic function in vitro. Overall, the results suggested that this biomimetic nanomedicine provided a promising therapeutic strategy for the targeted therapy of thrombosis.

Abstract
Venous thromboembolism is a common complication following trauma. We investigated the dynamics of plasma microparticles (MPs) levels and explored their potential as biomarkers of deep vein thromboembolism (DVT) after trauma. A total of 775 patients with traumatic fractures were recruited in this nested study. About 106 trauma patients (53 DVT subjects and 53 age-, sex-, and fracture site-matched non-DVT subjects) and 53 healthy volunteers met the enrollment criteria. MPs were characterized by transmission electron microscope, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and western blotting. Circulating levels of MPs were measured using a flow cytometer. Meanwhile, routine laboratory parameters were examined in all patients. Compared to non-DVT patients, DVT patients had higher circulating phosphatidylserine (PS) + MPs, hepatocyte-derived MPs (HMPs), PS + HMPs, and platelet-derived MPs (PMPs). Notably, PS + HMPs had the best predictive value for DVT diagnosis in trauma patients (area under the curve [AUC] 0.8939, 95% CI 0.8326 to 0.9552), which was superior to d-dimer (AUC 0.5881). The Hepatic Procoagulant Index combined plasma levels of PS + HMPs and albumin, increasing the AUC to 0.8978 (95% CI 0.8396 to 0.9561). This is the first study that addressed circulating PS + HMPs are promising biomarkers with high performance in diagnosing DVT. The Hepatic Procoagulant Index is a potential predictor of DVT in trauma patients.

Abstract
Biomimetic cell membrane camouflaged technology has drawn extensive attention as a feasible and efficient way to realize the biological functions of nanoparticles from the parent cells. As the burgeoning nanotherapeutic, the right-side-out orientation self-assembly and pathological dependent "on-demand" cargo release of cell membrane camouflaged nanocarriers remarkably limit further development for practical applications. In the present study, a spontaneously right-side-out-orientated coupling-driven ROS-sensitive nanotherapeutic has been constructed for target endothelial cells (ECs) repair through the synergistic effects of spontaneously right-side-out-orientated camouflaging. This condition results from the specific affinity between the intracellular domain of key transmembrane receptors band 3 on cell membrane inner leaflet and the corresponding P4.2 peptide-modified nanoparticles without the additional coextrusion. The "on-demand" cargo release results from the pathological ROS-cleavable prodrug. Particularly, the red blood cell camouflaged nanotherapeutics (RBC-LVTNPs) can enhance target drug delivery through low oscillatory shear stress (LSS) blood flow in the injured ECs lesion. Both in vitro and in vivo results collectively confirm that RBC-LVTNPs can restore the damaged ECs and function with the recovered vascular permeability and low inflammation microenvironment. The findings provide a powerful and universal approach for developing the biomimetic cell membrane camouflaged nanotechnology.

Abstract
Endothelium health is essential to the regulation of physiological vascular functions. Because of the critical capability of endothelial cells (ECs) to sense and transduce chemical and mechanical signals in the local vascular environment, their dysfunction is associated with a vast variety of vascular diseases and injuries, especially atherosclerosis and subsequent cardiovascular diseases. This review describes the mechanotransduction events that are mediated through ECs, the EC subcellular components involved, and the pathways reported to be potentially involved. Up-to-date research efforts involving in vivo animal models and in vitro biomimetic models are also discussed, including their advantages and drawbacks, with recommendations on future modeling approaches to aid the development of novel therapies targeting atherosclerosis and related cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Disturbed blood flow induces endothelial pro-inflammatory responses that promote atherogenesis. Nanoparticle-based therapeutics aimed at treating endothelial inflammation in vasculature where disturbed flow occurs may provide a promising avenue to prevent atherosclerosis. By using a vertical-step flow apparatus and a microfluidic chip of vascular stenosis, herein, it is found that the disk-shaped versus the spherical nanoparticles exhibit preferential margination (localization and adhesion) to the regions with the pro-atherogenic disturbed flow. By employing a mouse model of carotid partial ligation, superior targeting and higher accumulation of the disk-shaped particles are also demonstrated within disturbed flow areas than that of the spherical particles. In hyperlipidemia mice, administration of disk-shaped particles loaded with hypomethylating agent decitabine (DAC) displays greater anti-inflammatory and anti-atherosclerotic effects compared with that of the spherical counterparts and exhibits reduced toxicity than "naked" DAC. The findings suggest that shaping nanoparticles to disk is an effective strategy for promoting their delivery to atheroprone endothelia.

Abstract
In recent years, our scientific interest in spaceflight has grown exponentially and resulted in a thriving area of research, with hundreds of astronauts spending months of their time in space. A recent shift toward pursuing territories farther afield, aiming at near-Earth asteroids, the Moon, and Mars combined with the anticipated availability of commercial flights to space in the near future, warrants continued understanding of the human physiological processes and response mechanisms when in this extreme environment. Acute skeletal loss, more severe than any bone loss seen on Earth, has significant implications for deep space exploration, and it remains elusive as to why there is such a magnitude of difference between bone loss on Earth and loss in microgravity. The removal of gravity eliminates a critical primary mechano-stimulus, and when combined with exposure to both galactic and solar cosmic radiation, healthy human tissue function can be negatively affected. An additional effect found in microgravity, and one with limited insight, involves changes in dynamic fluid flow. Fluids provide the most fundamental way to transport chemical and biochemical elements within our bodies and apply an essential mechano-stimulus to cells. Furthermore, the cell cytoplasm is not a simple liquid, and fluid transport phenomena together with viscoelastic deformation of the cytoskeleton play key roles in cell function. In microgravity, flow behavior changes drastically, and the impact on cells within the porous system of bone and the influence of an expanding level of adiposity are not well understood. This review explores the role of interstitial fluid motion and solute transport in porous bone under two different conditions: normogravity and microgravity.

Abstract
The progression of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction leads to serious vascular injury, highlighting the urgent need for targeted regenerative therapy. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) composed of a lipid bilayer containing nuclear and cytosolic materials are relevant to the progression of cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, EVs can deliver bioactive cargo in pathological cardiovascular and regulate the biological function of recipient cells, such as inflammation, proliferation, angiogenesis and polarization. However, because the targeting and bioactivity of natural EVs are subject to several limitations, bioengineered EVs have achieved wide advancements in biomedicine. Bioengineered EVs involve three main ways to acquire including (i) modification of the EVs after isolation; (ii) modification of producer cells before EVs’ isolation; (iii) synthesize EVs using natural or modified cell membranes, and encapsulating drugs or bioactive molecules into EVs. In this review, we first summarize the cardiovascular injury-related disease and describe the role of different cells and EVs in vascular regeneration. We also discuss the application of bioengineered EVs from different producer cells to cardiovascular diseases. Finally, we summarize the surface modification on EVs which can specifically target abnormal cells in injured vascular.

Abstract
Nanomedicines represent new promising strategies for treating atherosclerosis (AS), because they enhance drug bioavailability and have lower side effects. Nevertheless, nanomedicines have several challenges with these advantages, including a limited circulation life, lack of precise targeting, and insufficient control of drug release. Accordingly, the development of drug delivery systems (DDSs) with abilities to enhance the payload delivery to the AS plaque lesion and to control drug release can boost the therapeutic efficacy and safety for AS treatment. Herein, we employed a one-step self-assembly approach for effectively encapsulating the anti-AS drug simvastatin (SIM) in zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) (SIM/ZIF-8), and then coated it with hyaluronic acid (HA) to fabricate the SIM/ZIF-8@HA nanoplatform. The resulting nanoplatform could efficiently accumulate in plaque regions through the specific recognition between HA and CD44. Meanwhile, the acid environment breaks down ZIF-8 to release SIM. The in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that SIM/ZIF-8@HA could inhibit the proliferation of smooth muscle cells and have good biocompatibility. Moreover, SIM/ZIF-8@HA can effectively suppress the development of AS plaques without any considerable side effects in mice treatments. The findings revealed that SIM/ZIF-8@HA may be a promising nanomedicine for safe and efficient anti-AS applications.

Abstract
The eye is one of the most complex organs in the human body, containing rich and critical physiological information (e.g., intraocular pressure, corneal temperature, and pH) as well as a library of metabolite biomarkers (e.g., glucose, proteins, and specific ions). Smart contact lenses (SCLs) can serve as a wearable intelligent ocular prosthetic device capable of noninvasive and continuous monitoring of various essential physical/biochemical parameters and drug loading/delivery for the treatment of ocular diseases. Advances in SCL technologies and the growing public interest in personalized health are accelerating SCL research more than ever before. Here, the current status and potential of SCL development through a comprehensive review from fabrication to applications to commercialization are discussed. First, the material, fabrication, and platform designs of the SCLs for the diagnostic and therapeutic applications are discussed. Then, the latest advances in diagnostic and therapeutic SCLs for clinical translation are reviewed. Later, the established techniques for wearable power transfer and wireless data transmission applied to current SCL devices are summarized. An outlook, future opportunities, and challenges for developing next-generation SCL devices are also provided. With the rise in interest of SCL development, this comprehensive and essential review can serve as a new paradigm for the SCL devices.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an exceptional endogenous biological gas that mediates and regulates physiological and pathological processes in the human body. However, its synthesis process is impaired during athero-progression and formation. Hence, a strategy to boost NO production and target endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is crucial and intriguing in atherosclerosis (AS) management. Herein, we prepare L-arginine (LA) and lovastatin (LV) co-loaded PLGA nanomedicine to achieve sustainable release for enhancing NO production. The utilization of LA reveals that LA has dual contributions, acting as a NO donor and enhancing the solubility of LV by stabilizing PLGA NPs. PLGA-LA/LV demonstrated its potential to boost NO in vitro and in vivo confirmed using DAF-FM DA, augment eNOS and p-eNOS mRNA and protein levels, and suppress the ki67 proliferation marker in VSMCs; in addition, it lowers the total cholesterol level of blood plasma in C57BL/6 mice. Moreover, PLGA can protect the compound delivered and enhance the bioavailability to reach and get released in the blood circulation after oral administration. Collectively, our results endow a safe and efficient nanomedicine outcome, specifically with potential for AS management.
