ABSTRACT
For cationic nanoparticles, the spontaneous nanoparticle-protein corona formation and aggregation in biofluids can trigger unexpected biological reactions. Herein, we present a biomimetic strategy for camouflaging the cationic peptide/siRNA nanocomplex (P/Si) with single or dual proteins, which exploits the unique properties of endogenous proteins and stabilizes the cationic P/Si complex for safe and targeted delivery. An in-depth study of the P/Si protein corona (P/Si-PC) formation and protein binding was conducted. The results provided insights into the biochemical and toxicological properties of cationic nanocomplexes and the rationales for engineering biomimetic protein camouflages. Based on this, the human serum albumin (HSA) and apolipoprotein AI (Apo-AI) ranked within the top 20 abundant protein species of P/Si-PC were selected to construct biomimetic HSA-dressed P/Si (P/Si@HSA) and dual protein (HSA and Apo-AI)-dressed P/Si (P/Si@HSA_Apo), given that the dual-protein camouflage plays complementary roles in efficient delivery. A branched cationic peptide (b-HKR) was tailored for siRNA delivery, and their nanocomplexes, including the cationic P/Si and biomimetic protein-dressed P/Si, were produced by a precise microfluidic technology. The biomimetic anionic protein camouflage greatly enhanced P/Si biostability and biocompatibility, which offers a reliable strategy for overcoming the limitation of applying cationic nanoparticles in biofluids and systemic delivery.
