Current medications for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have limited effectiveness and severe side effects. Therefore, there is an urgent need for novel therapeutic approaches that can specifically target inflamed areas in the gastrointestinal tract with minimal systemic effects. In this study, researchers constructed a library of anti-inflammatory nanoparticles called GlyNPs and evaluated their therapeutic potential in a mouse model of IBD. By attaching bilirubin (BR) to a library of glycopolymers, the researchers identified a candidate GlyNP capable of targeting macrophages in the inflamed colon and effectively alleviating colitis symptoms. These findings suggest that the BR-attached GlyNP library can serve as a platform for identifying anti-inflammatory nanomedicines for various inflammatory diseases.
Common medications for treating inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have limited therapeutic efficacy and severe adverse effects. This underscores the urgent need for novel therapeutic approaches that can effectively target inflamed sites in the gastrointestinal tract upon oral administration, exerting potent therapeutic efficacy while minimizing systemic effects. Here, we report the construction and in vivo therapeutic evaluation of a library of anti-inflammatory glycocalyx-mimicking nanoparticles (designated GlyNPs) in a mouse model of IBD. The anti-inflammatory GlyNP library was created by attaching bilirubin (BR) to a library of glycopolymers composed of random combinations of the five most naturally abundant sugars. Direct in vivo screening of 31 BR-attached anti-inflammatory GlyNPs via oral administration into mice with acute colitis led to identification of a candidate GlyNP capable of targeting macrophages in the inflamed colon and effectively alleviating colitis symptoms. These findings suggest that the BR-attached GlyNP library can be used as a platform to identify anti-inflammatory nanomedicines for various inflammatory diseases.
