Abstract
Rapid advancements in nanotechnology have been integrated into various disciplines, leading to an increased prevalence of nanoparticle exposure. The widespread utilization of nanomaterials and heightened levels of particulate pollution have prompted government departments to intensify their focus on assessing the safety of nanoparticles (NPs). The cardiovascular system, crucial for maintaining human health, has emerged as vulnerable to damage from nanoparticle exposure. A mounting body of evidence indicates that interactions can occur when NPs come into contact with components of the cardiovascular system, contributing to adverse cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, the underlying molecular mechanisms driving these events remain elusive. This work provides a comprehensive review of recent advance on nanoparticle-induced adverse cardiovascular events and offers insight into the associated molecular mechanisms. Finally, the influencing factors of NPs-induced cardiovascular toxicity are discussed.

Abstract
Polymeric materials, despite their many undeniable advantages, nowadays are a major environmental challenge. Thus, in recent years biodegradable polymer matrices have been widely used in various sectors, including the medicinal, chemical, and packaging industry. Their widespread use is due to the properties of biodegradable polymer matrices, among which are their adjustable physicochemical and mechanical properties, as well as lower environmental impact. The properties of biodegradable polymers can be modified with various types of nanofillers, among which clays, organic and inorganic nanoparticles, and carbon nanostructures are most commonly used. The performance of the final product depends on the size and uniformity of the used nanofillers, as well as on their distribution and dispersion in the polymer matrix. This literature review aims to highlight new research results on advances and improvements in the synthesis, physicochemical properties and applications of biodegradable polymer matrices modified with metal nanoparticles and metal oxides.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the world's most prominent cause of mortality, continue to be challenging conditions for patients, physicians, and researchers alike. CVDs comprise a wide range of illnesses affecting the heart, blood vessels, and the blood that flows through and between them. Advances in nanomedicine, a discipline focused on improving patient outcomes through revolutionary treatments, imaging agents, and ex vivo diagnostics, have created enthusiasm for overcoming limitations in CVDs' therapeutic and diagnostic landscapes. Nanomedicine can be involved in clinical purposes for CVD through the augmentation of cardiac or heart-related biomaterials, which can be functionally, mechanically, immunologically, and electrically improved by incorporating nanomaterials; vasculature applications, which involve systemically injected nanotherapeutics and imaging nanodiagnostics, nano-enabled biomaterials, or tissue-nanoengineered solutions; and enhancement of sensitivity and/or specificity of ex vivo diagnostic devices for patient samples. Therefore, this review discusses the latest studies based on applying organic nanoparticles in cardiovascular illness, including drug-conjugated polymers, lipid nanoparticles, and micelles. Following the revised information, it can be concluded that organic nanoparticles may be the most appropriate type of treatment for cardiovascular diseases due to their biocompatibility and capacity to integrate various drugs.

Preliminary Investigation on Efficacy and Safety of Substance P-Coated Stent for Promoting Re-Endothelialization: A Porcine Coronary Artery Restenosis Model. Tissue Eng Regen Med 2024; 21:53-64. [PMID: 37973692 PMCID: PMC10764706 DOI: 10.1007/s13770-023-00608-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 09/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Current polymer-based drug-eluting stents (DESs) have fundamental issues about inflammation and delayed re-endothelializaton of the vessel wall. Substance-P (SP), which plays an important role in inflammation and endothelial cells, has not yet been applied to coronary stents. Therefore, this study compares poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)-based everolimus-eluting stents (PLGA-EESs) versus 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC)-based SP-eluting stents (MPC-SPs) in in-vitro and in-vivo models. METHODS The morphology of the stent surface and peptide/drug release kinetics from stents were evaluated. The in-vitro proliferative effect of SP released from MPC-SP is evaluated using human umbilical vein endothelial cell. Finally, the safety and efficacy of the stent are evaluated after inserting it into a pig's coronary artery. RESULTS Similar to PLGA-EES, MPC-SP had a uniform surface morphology with very thin coating layer thickness (2.074 μm). MPC-SP showed sustained drug release of SP for over 2 weeks. Endothelial cell proliferation was significantly increased in groups treated with SP (n = 3) compared with the control (n = 3) and those with everolimus (n = 3) (SP: 118.9 ± 7.61% vs. everolimus: 64.3 ± 12.37% vs. the control: 100 ± 6.64%, p < 0.05). In the animal study, the percent stenosis was higher in MPC-SP group (n = 7) compared to PLGA-EES group (n = 7) (MPC-SP: 28.6 ± 10.7% vs. PLGA-EES: 16.7 ± 6.3%, p < 0.05). MPC-SP group showed, however, lower inflammation (MPC-SP: 0.3 ± 0.26 vs. PLGA-EES: 1.2 ± 0.48, p < 0.05) and fibrin deposition (MPC-SP: 1.0 ± 0.73 vs. PLGA-EES: 1.5 ± 0.59, p < 0.05) around the stent strut. MPC-SP showed more increased expression of cluster of differentiation 31, suggesting enhanced re-endothelialization. CONCLUSION Compared to PLGA-EES, MPC-SP demonstrated more decreased inflammation of the vascular wall and enhanced re-endothelialization and stent coverage. Hence, MPC-SP has the potential therapeutic benefits for the treatment of coronary artery disease by solving limitations of currently available DESs.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE. PROCESSES & IMPACTS 2023; 25:2148-2156.

Abstract
Nanoplastics (NPs) have been widely detected in soil-groundwater systems. However, to date, the effect of real groundwater on the fate and transport of NPs has been poorly understood. In this study, the transport and retention behaviors of both polystyrene and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) NPs (PS NPs and PLGA NPs) in different real groundwaters from three coastal cities in China were explored using column experiments. PS (0.51 and 1.1 μm) and PLGA (1 μm) NPs with a low concentration of 2 mg L-1 were employed. Close observation showed that the transport of PS NPs was much higher than PLGA NPs in different groundwaters, with an average breakthrough curve plateau (C/Co) of ∼0.81 for PS NPs and ∼0.19 for PLGA NPs, respectively. As observed for PLGA, the plastic shape- and size-induced straining may be the reason for the minimal transport. Interestingly, we found that although the physicochemical characteristics of different real groundwaters varied significantly, the transport of certain NPs in real groundwater was similar with negligible differences. Closer inspection indicated that similar pHs of different groundwaters may be the reason contributing to these findings. Further investigation revealed that the transport behaviors of PS and PLGA NPs in real groundwater did not follow the classical DLVO theory. These findings suggest that the fate and transport of NPs in real soil-groundwater systems are much more comprehensive than the prediction based on DLVO theory and need intensive investigation.

Abstract
Cardiovascular tissue engineering is providing many solutions to cardiovascular diseases. The complex disease demands necessitating tissue-engineered constructs with enhanced functionality. In this study, we are presenting the production of a dexamethasone (DEX)-loaded electrospun tubular polymeric poly(l-lactide) (PLA) or poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) construct which contains iPSC-CMs (induced pluripotent stem cell cardiomyocytes), HUVSMCs (human umbilical vein smooth muscle cells), and HUVECs (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) embedded in fibrin gel. The electrospun tube diameter was calculated, as well as the DEX release for 50 days for 2 different DEX concentrations. Furthermore, we investigated the influence of the polymer composition and concentration on the function of the fibrin gels by imaging and quantification of CD31, alpha-smooth muscle actin (αSMA), collagen I (col I), sarcomeric alpha actinin (SAA), and Connexin 43 (Cx43). We evaluated the cytotoxicity and cell proliferation of HUVECs and HUVSMCs cultivated in PLA and PLGA polymeric sheets. The immunohistochemistry results showed efficient iPSC-CM marker expression, while the HUVEC toxicity was higher than the respective HUVSMC value. In total, our study emphasizes the combination of fibrin gel and electrospinning in a functionalized construct, which includes three cell types and provides useful insights of the DEX release and cytotoxicity in a tissue engineering perspective.

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.
