Abstract
The effectiveness of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on inflammation-related disease is limited and the pharmaceutical preparation that was used to enhance the efficacy of MSCs cannot reach the diseased tissue in large quantities. Herein, antioxidant liposome (Lipo-OPC) is designed to anchor onto the surface of MSCs membrane via click chemical reaction (MSC-Lipo-OPC) without affecting the viability and physiological characteristics of MSCs, thus allowing efficient accumulation of MSC-Lipo-OPC in X-ray irradiated lung sites. More importantly, MSC-Lipo-OPC promotes the change of the quantity and polarity of innate immunocytes, mainly including neutrophils, macrophages and Tregs, in favor of anti-inflammatory, finally preventing the formation of radioactive pulmonary fibrosis. Therefore, it could enhance the treatment outcome of both of MSCs and drugs to radiation-induced lung injury via modifying the drug-loaded nanoparticle on the surface of MSCs membrane, further promoting the application of MSCs in radiation damage and protection.
