Genetically Engineered Cellular Nanovesicle as Targeted DNase I Delivery System for the Clearance of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Acute Lung Injury
Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are prevalent critical illnesses with a high mortality rate among patients in intensive care units. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are implicated in the pathogenesis of ALI/ARDS and represent a promising therapeutic target. However, the clinical application of deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I), the only drug currently available to clear NETs, is limited due to the lack of precise and efficient delivery strategies. Therefore, targeted delivery of DNase I to the inflamed lung remains a critical issue to be addressed. Herein, a novel biomimetic DNase I delivery system is developed (DCNV) that employs genetically and bioorthogonally engineered cellular nanovesicles for pulmonary NETs clearance. The CXC motif chemokine receptor 2 overexpressed cellular nanovesicles can mimic the inflammatory chemotaxis of neutrophils in ALI/ARDS, leading to enhanced lung accumulation. Furthermore, DNase I immobilized through bioorthogonal chemistry exhibits remarkable enzymatic activity in NETs degradation, thus restraining inflammation and safeguarding lung tissue in the lipopolysaccharide‐induced ALI murine model. Collectively, the findings present a groundbreaking proof‐of‐concept in the utilization of biomimetic cellular nanovesicles to deliver DNase I for treating ALI/ARDS. This innovative strategy may usher in a new era in the development of pharmacological interventions for various inflammation‐related diseases.
