Development of LOX-1 Antibody Modified Immuno-liposomes as Drug Carriers to Macrophages in Atherosclerotic Lesions.
Die Pharmazie 2023 August 2
We developed a drug delivery system for atherosclerotic lesions using immuno-liposomes. We focused on enhancing the delivery efficiency of the liposomes to macrophages in atherosclerotic lesions by antibody modification of lectinlike oxidized low-density lipoproteins (LDL) receptor 1 (LOX-1). The cellular accumulation of the liposomes in foam cells induced by oxidized LDL (oxLDL) in Raw264 mouse macrophages was evaluated. The cellular accumulation of LOX-1 antibody modified liposomes in oxLDL-induced foam cells and untreated Raw264 cells was significantly higher compared with that of unmodified liposomes. The liposomes were also administered intravenously to Apoe shl mice as an atherosclerosis model. Frozen sections were prepared from the mouse aortas and observed by confocal laser microscopy. The distribution of LOX-1 antibody modified liposomes in the atherosclerotic regions of Apoe shl mice was significantly greater compared with that of unmodified liposomes. The results suggest that LOX-1 antibody modified liposomes can target foam cells in atherosclerotic lesions, providing a potential route for delivering various drugs with pharmacological effects or detecting atherosclerotic foci for the diagnosis of atherosclerosis.
