Ischemic stroke is a serious cerebral vascular disease. The polarization of microglia, an important immune component in the central nervous system, is closely related to high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1). By designing reactive oxygen species (ROS) responsive polymer-drug conjugate nanoparticles, it is possible to manipulate microglia polarization and achieve excellent therapeutic efficacy in ischemic stroke treatment.
Ischemic stroke is an acute and serious cerebral vascular disease, which greatly affects people's health and brings huge economic burden to society. Microglia, as important innate immune components in central nervous system (CNS), are double-edged swords in the battle of nerve injury, considering their polarization between proinflammatory M1 or anti-inflammatory M2 phenotypes. High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is one of the potent pro-inflammatory mediators that promotes the M1 polarization of microglia. 18 beta-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) is an effective intracellular inhibitor of HMGB1, but of poor water solubility and dose-dependent toxicity. To overcome the shortcomings of GA delivery and to improve the efficacy of cerebral ischemia therapy, herein, we designed reactive oxygen species (ROS) responsive polymer-drug conjugate nanoparticles (DGA) to manipulate microglia polarization by suppressing the translocation of nuclear HMGB1. DGA presented excellent therapeutic efficacy in stroke mice, as evidenced by the reduction of infarct volume, recovery of motor function, suppressed of M1 microglia activation and enhanced M2 activation, and induction of neurogenesis. Altogether, our work demonstrates a close association between HMGB1 and microglia polarization, suggesting potential strategies for coping with inflammatory microglia-related diseases.
