Abstract

Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury causes excessive oxidative events and initiates destructive inflammatory responses, and it is an important promoter to the pathology of various pathema states. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent type of nonapoptotic cell death accompanied by the accumulation of membrane lipid peroxide and consumption of polyunsaturated fatty acid, and it plays a key role in I/R injury diseases. Moreover, the excessive production of inflammatory cytokines contributes to the development of acute kidney injury. Here, we reported neutrophil membrane-coated copper-based nanoparticles (N-Cu5.4O@DFO NPs) for I/R kidney injury treatment. The highly biocompatible and stable N-Cu5.4O@DFO NPs showed excellent antioxidant and iron ion scavenging abilities in vitro. Our finding showed that the N-Cu5.4O@DFO NPs strategy could significantly accumulate in the inflammatory kidney, reduce oxidative damage events and inflammatory response, and finally achieve synergistic therapy against renal I/R injury. This work promotes the development of nanoantioxidant agents with multiple antioxidant properties for the therapy of other I/R injury diseases.
