Atherosclerosis (AS) poses a significant threat to human life and health. However, conventional antiatherogenic medications exhibit insufficient targeting precision and restricted therapeutic effectiveness. Moreover, during the progression of AS, macrophages undergo polarization toward the proinflammatory M1 phenotype and generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) to accelerate the occurrence of inflammatory storms, and ingest excess lipids to form foam cells by inhibiting cholesterol efflux. In our study, we developed a macrophage membrane-functionalized hollow mesoporous manganese dioxide nanomedicine (Col@HMnO2-MM). This nanomedicine has the ability to evade immune cell phagocytosis, enables prolonged circulation within the body, targets the inflammatory site of AS for effective drug release, and alleviates the inflammatory storm at the AS site by eliminating ROS. Furthermore, Col@HMnO2-MM has the ability to generate oxygen autonomously by breaking down surplus hydrogen peroxide generated at the inflammatory AS site, thereby reducing the hypoxic microenvironment of the plaque by downregulating hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α), which in turn enhances cholesterol efflux to inhibit foam cell formation. In an APOE−/− mouse model, Col@HMnO2-MM significantly reduced inflammatory factor levels, lipid storage, and plaque formation without significant long-term toxicity. In summary, this synergistic treatment significantly improved the effectiveness of nanomedicine and may offer a novel strategy for precise AS therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
