Gold nanoclusters conjugated berberine reduce inflammation and alleviate neuronal apoptosis by mediating M2 polarization for spinal cord injury repair

Abstract: Spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to nerve cell apoptosis and loss of motor function. Herein, excessive activation of the M1 phenotype macrophages/microglia is found to be the main reason for the poor prognosis of SCI, but the selective activation phenotype (M2) macrophages/microglia facilitates the recovery of SCI. Thereafter, we used gold nanoclusters loaded berberine (BRB-AuNCs) to reduce inflammation by inhibiting the activation of M1 phenotype macrophages/microglia, which simultaneously inhibited neuronal ap… Show more

“…iNOS was a phenotypic marker of proinflammatory macrophages [ 38 ]. It was reported that local accumulation of proinflammatory iNOS + macrophages often represented the accelerated loss of graft [ 39 , 40 ]. Thus, reducing inflammatory response damage was also an important strategy to promote neural regeneration [ 41 , 42 ].…”

“…Recently, Mei et al. [ 57 ] developed novel AuNCs conjugated to positively charged berberine through electrostatic interactions. One hundred 20-nm NPs stabilized by bovine serum albumin (BSA) showed effective anti-apoptotic ability and regulated M2 macrophage polarization.…”

“…‘Immune-interactive’ biomaterials can modulate such a balance and thereby direct the suitable immune response for tissue regeneration [ 444 , 445 ]. Some biomaterials that are capable of mediating macrophage polarization are particularly attractive for tissue regeneration [ 446 ]. Macrophages can polarize to pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype or anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype.…”
