Inflammation‐modulating nanoparticles for pneumonia therapy

Abstract: Pneumonia is a common but serious infectious disease, and is the sixth leading cause for death. The foreign pathogens such as viruses, fungi, and bacteria establish an inflammation response after interaction with lung, leading to the filling of bronchioles and alveoli with fluids. Although the pharmacotherapies have shown their great effectiveness to combat pathogens, advanced methods are under developing to treat complicated cases such as virus‐infection and lung inflammation or acute lung injury (ALI).

“…Macrophages are thought to be important in the progression of ALI. Macrophages in the alveoli are the first defenders activated by infection, and thus play a key role in the initiation and maintenance of inflammatory response [5] . Here, RAW264.7 cells were used to mimic alveolar macrophages, whose viability was examined after incubation with various concentrations of DEX and NPs.…”

“…Therefore, the inhalation of medicines contained in a polymeric matrix has been extensively studied as a potential method of overcoming the short residence time and low lung drug concentration [50] . The benefits of employing nanotechnology for drug administration via inhalation route include targeted drug delivery, higher effectiveness, lower toxicity, reduced biodistribution, enhanced bioavailability and improved patient comfort [ 5 , 51 ]. Modeling and drug administration were improved by endotracheal intubation atomization (Fig.…”

“…Certain viruses, i.e. coronavirus, adenoviruses, influenza virus, and respiratory syncytial viruses are also responsible for the spread of viral pneumonia (Muhammad et al., 2022 ). The therapy is initiated after the conformation of an etiological agent and the severity of the disease then the treatment starts in a rational way to treat the development of these resistant strains.…”
