ABSTRACT
In this study, we synthesized mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs) using an emulsion-induced interface assembly strategy and loaded epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) into MPDA NPs via electrostatic attraction to form EGCG@MPDA NPs. In the post myocardial infarction (MI) environment, these interventions specifically aimed to eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and facilitate the repair of MI. We further combined them with a thermosensitive chitosan (CS) hydrogel to construct an injectable composite hydrogel (EGCG@MPDA/CS hydrogel). Utilizing in vitro experiments, the EGCG@MPDA/CS hydrogel exhibited excellent ROS-scavenging ability of H9C2 cells under the oxidative stress environment and also could inhibit their apoptosis. The EGCG@MPDA/CS hydrogel significantly promoted left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in infarcted rat models post injection for 28 days compared to the PBS group (51.25 ± 1.73% vs 29.31 ± 0.78%, P < 0.05). In comparison to the PBS group, histological analysis revealed a substantial increase in left ventricular (LV) wall thickness in the EGCG@MPDA/CS hydrogel group (from 0.58 ± 0.03 to 1.39 ± 1.11 mm, P < 0.05). This work presents a novel approach to enhance MI repair by employing the EGCG@MPDA/CS hydrogel. This hydrogel effectively reduces local oxidative stress by ROS and stimulates the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) pathway.
