[Establishment of an Engineered Bacterial Membrane Biomimetic Nanodrug Delivery System and Its Role in the Treatment of Glioma].

Objective: To develop engineered bacterial membrane biomimetic nanoparticles, Angiopep-2 Methods: The expression of inaX-N-angiopep-2 engineered bacteria was constructed in the laboratory, and ANG-2 EM was obtained through lysozyme treatment and ultrafiltration centrifugation. ANG-2 EM@PPC was prepared by ultrasonication of bacterial membranes. Western blotting, agarose gel electrophoresis, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to verify the preparation. Particle size and Zeta potential were measured to investigate the stability of ANG-2 EM@PPC. Regarding cell experiments, CCK-8 assay was performed to determine the effect of ANG-2 EM@PPC on the survival rate of neutrophils. A flow chamber model was designed and constructed, and the uptake efficiency of neutrophils was measured by flow cytometry to investigate the hitchhiking efficiency of ANG 2 EM@PPC on neutrophils in inflammatory environment. Neutrophil death patterns were characterized by fluorescence microscopy, and flow cytometry and Western blotting were performed to examine neutrophil apoptotic bodies and the proportion of apoptotic bodies produced. Regarding animal experiments, a mouse model of Results: The results of TEM showed successful preparation of engineered bacterial membrane biomimetic nanoparticles, with PPC exhibiting a distinct shell-core structure and a shell thickness of about 8.2 nm. Due to the coating of ANG-2 EM, the shell thickness of ANG-2 EM@PPC increased to about 9.6 nm, with a clear bacterial membrane layer on the surface. Stability was maintained for at least one week. ANG-2 EM@PPC had no significant effect on the activity of neutrophils according to the findings from the CCK-8 assay. Flow cytometry showed that ANG-2 EM@PPC uptake is enhanced in activated neutrophils and hitchhiking on neutrophils was more efficient in the stationary state than that in the flowing condition. Compared with the EM@PPC group, the neutrophil hitchhiking ability of the ANG-2 EM@PPC group was enhanced (uptake efficiency 24.9% vs. 31.1%). Fluorescence microscopy showed that ANG-2 EM@PPC changed the death pathway of neutrophils from neutrophil extracellular traps-osis (NETosis) to apoptosis. Western blot confirmed the production of neutrophil apoptotic bodies, and flow cytometry showed that the production rate was as high as 77.7%. Animal experiments showed that there was no significant difference in the distribution of engineered bacterial membrane biomimetic nanoparticles in the organs (heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidney) in the DiR group, the EM@PPC gropu, and the ANG-2 EM@PPC group ( Conclusion: An ANG-2 EM@PPC nanodelivery system with inflammation response characteristics was successfully prepared, capable of crossing BBB and targeting the tumor inflammatory microenvironment to improve the anti-glioma efficacy. This study provides a new drug delivery strategy for glioma treatment and offers a new idea for targeted drug delivery in the non-invasive inflammatory microenvironments in other central nervous system diseases.
