    Functionalized lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for targeted RNA delivery in multiple myeloma (MM): overcoming bone marrow (BM) niche challenges and bio-inspired strategies. This schematic illustrates LNP design for BM-targeted RNA therapy in MM, addressing niche barriers (e.g., fibrosis, hypoxia) and incorporating antibody orientation and co-stimulation. ( Top Center and Top Right ): BM niche challenges include TGF-β-driven fibrosis (collagen I/III crosslinking), hypoxia (pO 2 < 5 mmHg), dense ECM (hyaluronan/heparan sulfate), high interstitial pressure, MM cell efflux pumps, and macrophage/MDSC scavenging. To reach this niche, antibody decoration (e.g., anti-CD38 ) or naturally inspired ApoA1 (enhances BM tropism ) can be used. ( Top and Bottom Left ): Functionalized LNPs with PEGylated lipid (stealth/stability), phospholipid (disperses aggregates), nucleic acid, ionizable lipid (endosomal escape), and cholesterol (structural integrity). Encapsulates RNA (e.g., siRNA) for intravenous injection into MM mouse models, as in αCD38-tLNP siRNA-CKAP5 studies (; IV for systemic BM delivery). ( Bottom Center ): ApoA-coated LNP composition, DMPC (phospholipid: stabilizes with ApoA1), cholesterol (structural organization), tricaprylin (promotes spherical stability), MC3 (ionizable lipid for RNA complexation), ApoA1 (BM targeting/stability) . Antibody ratios (e.g., CD3/CD28 on aLNPs) affect cargo expression (e.g., higher CD28 ratios increase CAR+% in T-cells via bio-inspired co-stimulation ). ( Bottom Right ): Antibody orientation is critical; nanobody-mediated (e.g., anti-Fc nanobody) ensures site-specific conjugation and antibody orientation, improving LNP targeting .

    Functionalized lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for targeted RNA delivery in multiple myeloma (MM): overcoming bone marrow (BM) niche challenges and bio-inspired strategies. This schematic illustrates LNP design for BM-targeted RNA therapy in MM, addressing niche barriers (e.g., fibrosis, hypoxia) and incorporating antibody orientation and co-stimulation. ( Top Center and Top Right ): BM niche challenges include TGF-β-driven fibrosis (collagen I/III crosslinking), hypoxia (pO 2 < 5 mmHg), dense ECM (hyaluronan/heparan sulfate), high interstitial pressure, MM cell efflux pumps, and macrophage/MDSC scavenging. To reach this niche, antibody decoration (e.g., anti-CD38 ) or naturally inspired ApoA1 (enhances BM tropism ) can be used.

    Figure Lengend Snippet: The therapeutic effect of local injection of CD47 antibody, PKA inhibitor, G protein inhibitor, or Src kinase inhibitor on arthritis development. Six groups of wild-type rats were included (n=5) and for panels (A–D) the solid black line stands for the normal rat group, the solid orange line for the model group, the dashed red line for the CD47 antibody treatment group, the solid blue line for the PKA inhibitor (H89) treatment group, the dashed purple line for the G protein inhibitor treatment group and the green line for the Src kinase inhibitor (PP2) treatment group. (A–D) . Swelling of hind left paws (A) and right paws (B) , arthritis score (C) and clinic score (D) of rats during the experiment were shown. On day 28 of the animal experiment, rats were sacrificed and synovial tissues of the hind left paws were taken and used as samples for western-blot analysis. Photos of western-blot for CD47, SIRP-α, TSP-1, integrin subunit α4, αM, αv, αL, β1, β2, and β3 under PKA inhibitor H89, G protein inhibitor PTX, and Src kinase inhibitor PP2 treatment (E) and CD47 antibody treatment (F) were shown. Photos of western-blot for markers of T cells (CD3), neutrophils (Ly6G), macrophages (CD68), and B cells (CD45RA) in synovial membranes of rats under PKA inhibitor H89, G protein inhibitor PTX, and Src kinase inhibitor PP2 treatment (G) and CD47 antibody treatment (H) were shown.

    Article Snippet: Total expression of integrin α4β1 on wild-type rat CD3+ T cells was confirmed with a flow cytometry method with the use of a rabbit anti-rat integrin α4β1 monoclonal antibody (8440T, Cell Signaling Technology) and Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG(H+L) (FMS-RBaf48801, Fcmacs).

    Techniques: Injection, Western Blot

    “TSP-1-CD47-integrin α4β1” trimolecular co-action model to explain the important role of CD47 in RA. CD47 expressed on the surface of T cells interacts with TSP-1 scattered on the blood vessel to promote integrin α4β1 (on T cell surface) interaction with VCAM-1 present on the surface of vascular endothelial cells, thereby promoting T cells infiltration into the joint synovial tissue and accelerating arthritis development.
