PG - 401-412 LID - S0168-3659(22)00423-0 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.jconrel.2022.07.013 [doi] AB - Renal tubular epithelial cell (RTEC) is a critical target cell for the treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI). Despite various RTEC targeting strategies using ligand modified nanoparticles (NPs) following systemic administration, the nonspecific interaction between NPs and plasma proteins greatly weakens the targeting efficiency as well as the stability of NPs. Herein, celastrol (CLT) was entrapped in D-alpha-tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) forming a CLT-loaded nanocomplex core (CT) with a high loading capacity of ~50%. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was then adsorbed onto the CT surface to afford a complete albumin corona without obvious denaturation (CTB). CTB showed uniform particle size distribution and sufficient stability in vitro and in vivo. Besides clathrin-mediated and macropinocytosis pathways, CTB was actively internalized through megalin receptor-mediated endocytosis in HK-2 cells. Per biodistribution studies, CTB demonstrates enhanced renal tubule-specific distribution and targetability in mice compared to CT without albumin corona. Furthermore, pharmacodynamic studies in vivo further support that CTB effectively alleviated ischemia-reperfusion induced injuries without obvious systemic side effects in AKI mice models.
