| Popis: | In the present study, we investigated potential of chitosan-based nanoparticles (CNPs) to deliver loaded therapeutic molecules to pathogen harboring macrophages. We fabricated stable CNPs employing ionic cross-linking method and evaluated their potential to target RAW 264.7 cells. The physicochemical characterization of as-synthesized CNPs was determined using electron microscopy, infrared microscopy and zeta potential measurement. Next, cellular uptake and intracellular localization studies of CNPs were followed in living RAW264.7 cells using confocal microscopy. We found that both Acr-1 loaded (CNP-A) and 4-SO4-GalNAc ligand harboring (CNP-L) chitosan nanoparticle experience increased cellular uptake by Mycobacterium smegmatis infected RAW cells. Following cellular digestion in model macrophage cell line (RAW), CNPs provide an increased immune response. Further, 4-SO4-GalNAc bearing CNP-L exhibits high binding affinity as well as antibacterial efficacy toward M. smegmatis. The data of the present study suggest that CNP-based nanoparticle offer a promising delivery strategy to target infected macrophages for prevention and eradication of intracellular pathogens such as M. smegmatis. |
