Abstract:The disruption and reconstruction of the TREM2 + tissue resident macrophage (TRM) barrier on the surface of synovial lining play a key role in the activation and "remission" of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which engender the prediction of this immunologic barrier as a potential driver for the achievement of "cure" in RA. However, strategies to promote the reconstruction of this barrier have not been reported, and the effect of patching this barrier remains unidentified. On the other hand, appropriate piezoelectr… Show more
“…In another study, Jiang et al in 2023 developed piezoelectric BTO nanoparticles which can be activated by ultrasound for generating electrical stimulation for reprogramming the macrophage phenotype toward M2 for improving the pro-inflammatory conditions for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). 86 The obtained results showed that electrical stimulation resulted in decreases in the levels of FAP-α and TNF-α which altered the macrophage phenotype from M1 to M2.…”

“…In addition, ultrasound activated piezoelectricity generation has also been utilized to tune macrophage behavior for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. , For instance, Li et al in 2023 stimulated piezoelectric nanosheets, Fe/BiOCl NSs, using ultrasound in an in vivo articular inflammation model to study its effect on macrophage polarization . From the results, it was observed that CD80+ macrophages decreased by 12.3% and CD206+ macrophages increased by 3.5%, suggesting a successful M2 polarization.…”

“…Upon US stimulation, Fe/BiOCl NSs generated the electrons which led to the consumption of H + in the mitochondrial membrane causing the depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane potential, hence induing mitophagy which contributes to the anti-inflammatory effect by polarizing the macrophages to the M2 phenotype. In another study, Jiang et al in 2023 developed piezoelectric BTO nanoparticles which can be activated by ultrasound for generating electrical stimulation for reprogramming the macrophage phenotype toward M2 for improving the pro-inflammatory conditions for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) .

“…Recently, electrical stimulation has also been reported to promote macrophage phagocytosis for relieving the progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by targeting the tissue resident macrophage (TRM) receptors. Jiang et al in 2023 employed ultrasound to trigger the piezoelectric tetragonal BaTiO 3 (BTO) for generating electric fields to stimulate the TRM barrier across the joints in a noninvasive manner . The ultrasound treatment generated negative charges on the surface of BTO which caused the binding between TREM2 TRM and BTO, patching the immunological barrier.…”

The immune system plays a key role in the development and progression of numerous diseases such as chronic wounds, autoimmune diseases, and various forms of cancer. Hence, controlling the behavior of immune cells has emerged as a promising approach for treating these diseases. Current modalities for immunomodulation focus on chemical based approaches, which while effective have the limitations of nonspecific systemic side effects or requiring invasive delivery approaches to reduce the systemic side effects. Recent advances have unraveled the significance of electrical stimulation as an attractive noninvasive approach to modulate immune cell phenotype and activity. This review provides insights on electrical stimulation strategies employed for regulating the behavior of macrophages, T and B cells, and neutrophils. For obtaining a better understanding, two major types of electrical stimulation sources, conventional and self-powered sources, that have been used for immunomodulation are extensively discussed. Next, the strategies of electrical stimulation that may be applied to cells in vitro and in vivo are discussed, with a focus on conventional and stimuli-responsive self-powered sources. A description of how these strategies influence the polarization, phagocytosis, migration, and differentiation of immune cells is also provided. Finally, recent developments in the use of highly localized and efficient platforms for electrical stimulation based immunomodulation are also highlighted.
