Platelet-Inspired Nanocells for Targeted Heart Repair After Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury
ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, 29(4).
author keywords: biomimetics; drug delivery; ischemic injury; platelets; stromal cell secretome
TL;DR:
A platelet‐inspired nanocell (PINC) that incorporates both prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)‐modified platelet membrane and cardiac stromal cell‐secreted factors to target the heart after I/R injury is introduced, which represents a promising therapeutic delivery platform for treating myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.
