Nano-integrated cascade antioxidases opsonized by albumin bypass the blood–brain barrier for treatment of ischemia-reperfusion injury

. We further showed that the neutrophil-mediated delivery of antioxidases effectively reduced oxidative damage and apoptosis of neurons in brain tissue in a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) mouse model. Moreover, the successful delivery of Se with the nanoparticles increased the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and effectively inhibited neuronal ferroptosis, achieving a satisfactory neuroprotective effect in I/R injury mice. Our study demonstrated that the rationally designed nanomedicines using the "neutrophil piggybacking" strategy can efficiently penetrate the BBB, greatly expanding the application of nanomedicines in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) diseases.
