Nowadays, multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infectious diseases has become a thorny issue in the healthcare field. Owning to its intrinsic merits, photodynamic therapy (PDT) shows tremendous strengths in fighting against MDR bacterial infections. However, most photodynamic nanoplatforms exhibit unsatisfactory targeting efficiency towards bacteria and infection site, which may compromise the bactericidal effect of PDT. Herein, we firstly reported a bacteria-targeted collagen-based nanoparticle, named Ce6/Col/MM, for treating methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-infected wound. Ce6/Col/MM was fabricated by wrapping chlorin e6 (Ce6)-loaded collagen-based nanoparticles with macrophage membrane (MM), showing excellent photodynamic activity and good biocompatibility. In vitro studies demonstrated that Ce6/Col/MM could target to bacteria and then exhibit prominent antibacterial capacity against planktonic MRSA under light irradiation. Furthermore, the treatment of MRSA-infected wound in mice with Ce6/Col/MM plus light illumination resulted in potent bacterial inactivation and accelerated wound healing, accompanied by favorable histological compatibility. Collectively, Ce6/Col/MM with superior targeting ability towards bacteria, effective photodynamic antibacterial potency and minimal safety concerns, might be a powerful bactericidal nanoagent for treating infections caused by MDR bacteria.
