新型纳米药物递送系统在低氧性肺动脉高压治疗中的研究进展

    Advances in novel nanomedicine delivery system for hypoxic pulmonary hypertension treatment

    • 摘要: 低氧性肺动脉高压(hypoxic pulmonary hypertension,HPH)常发生于多种呼吸系统疾病,具有较高的病死率。机体在低氧环境下发生的肺血管低氧性收缩(hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction,HPV)与肺血管结构重建(pulmonary vascular remodeling,PVR)是造成持续性肺动脉压力增高的重要病理生理学机制。目前,HPH的常规治疗方法仅能改善患者的症状,无法根治HPH,且药物难以在肺血管蓄积,生物利用度低。纳米药物递送系统(nano drug delivery system,NDDS)作为一种新兴技术,在提高药物的靶向性与疗效的精准性上展示了强大的优势,同时还显著降低了药物引发的不良副作用。本文对纳米靶向药物递送系统在HPH治疗中的最新进展进行综述,为HPH的治疗提供理论基础与新的治疗策略。

       

      Abstract: Hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) often occurs in various respiratory diseases or hypoxia-related diseases with a high mortality. During the course of acute hypoxia, pulmonary blood vessels are prone to produce hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) and pulmonary vascular remodeling (PVR), which is an important pathophysiological mechanism to elevate pulmonary arterial pressure. With the constant progress on therapeutic methods, HPH is still an incurable, chronic and disabling disease. Currently, conventional treatments for HPH can only improve patients' symptoms, but not cure HPH, and the drugs are difficult to accumulate in the pulmonary vasculature and have low bioavailability. Recently, nano drug delivery systems (NDDS), as an emerging technology, have been demonstrated to possess powerful effects on improving the targeting and precision of drug efficacy, as well as reducing adverse side effects of drugs. This article reviews the latest progress of lung nano targeted drug delivery systems for HPH treatment, providing a theoretical basis and therapeutic ideas for the treatment of HPH.
