Simvastatin-Loaded Polymeric Nanoparticles: Targeting Inflammatory Macrophages for Local Adipose Tissue Browning in Obesity Treatment

mouse model of high-fat-diet (HFD)-induced obesity. Sim-NP administration led to the controlled release of Sim within AT, directly impacting MΦ activity and inducing AT browning while inducing weight loss. Our findings demonstrated that Sim-NP administration effectively inhibited the progression of obesity-related inflammation, controlled white fat production, and enhanced AT modulation. These results highlight the potential of Sim-NP as a potent nanotherapy for treating obesity by modulating the immune system.
