Mulberry Biomass-Derived Nanomedicines Mitigate Colitis through Improved Inflamed Mucosa Accumulation and Intestinal Microenvironment Modulation

The therapeutic outcomes of conventional oral medications against ulcerative colitis(UC)are restricted by inefficient drug delivery to the colitis mucosa and weak capacity to modulate the inflammatory microenvironment.Herein,a fluorinated pluronic(FP127)was synthesized and employed to functionalize the surface of mulberry leaf-derived nanoparticles(MLNs)loading with resveratrol nanocrystals(RNs).The obtained FP127@RN-MLNs possessed exosome-like morphologies,desirable particle sizes(around 171.4 nm),and negatively charged surfaces(-14.8 mV).The introduction of FP127 to RN-MLNs greatly improved their stability in the colon and promoted their mucus infiltration and mucosal penetration capacities due to the unique fluorine effect.These MLNs could efficiently be internalized by colon epithelial cells and macrophages,reconstruct disrupted epithelial barriers,alleviate oxidative stress,provoke macrophage polarization to M2 phenotype,and down-regulate inflammatory responses.Importantly,in vivo studies based on chronic and acute UC mouse models demonstrated that oral administration of chitosan/alginate hydrogel-embedding FP127@RN-MLNs achieved substantially improved therapeutic efficacies compared with nonfluorinated MLNs and a first-line UC drug(dexamethasone),as evidenced by decreased colonic and systemic inflammation,integrated colonic tight junctions,and intestinal microbiota balance.This study brings new insights into the facile construction of a natural,versatile nanoplatform for oral treatment of UC without adverse effects.
