Abstract Background Aortic valve disease is the most common valvular heart disease leading to valve replacement. The efficacy of pharmacological therapy for aortic valve disease is limited by the high mechanical stress at the aortic valves impairing the binding rate. We aimed to identify nanoparticle coating with entire platelet membranes to fully mimic their inherent multiple adhesion mechanisms and target the sclerotic aortic valve of apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE−/−) mice based on their multiple sites binding capacity under high shear stress. Methods Considering the potent interaction of platelet membrane glycoproteins with components present in sclerotic aortic valves, platelet membrane-coated nanoparticles (PNPs) were synthetized and the binding capacity under high shear stress was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Results Compared with PNPs bound intensity in the static station, 161%, 59%, and 39% of attached PNPs remained adherent on VWF-, collagen-, and fibrin-coated surfaces under shear stress of 25dyn/cm2 respectively. PNPs demonstrated effectively adhering to von Willebrand factor, collagen and fibrin under shear stresses in vitro. In an aortic valve disease model established in ApoE−/− mice, PNPs group exhibited significant increase of accumulation in the aortic valves compared with PBS and control NP group. PNPs displayed high degrees of proximity or co-localization with vWF, collagen and fibrin, which exhibited good targeting to sclerotic aortic valves by mimicking platelet multiple adhesive mechanisms. Conclusion PNPs could provide a promising platform for the molecular diagnosis and targeting treatment of aortic valve disease.

Adsorptive Properties

Morphological and cytochemical studies of platelets have reported a surface coat, or glycocalyx, external to the plasma membrane (1). Biochemical analyses have likewise confirmed the highly adsorptive properties of platelets as transporters of coagulation factors (2). However, visualization of the platelet membrane by conventional EM procedures does not reflect this special relationship between the platelet and its plasma environment. By the routine method of alcohol-propylene oxide dehydration for Epon embedding, the lipid bilayer nature of the platelet membrane appears similar to other blood cells (Fig. 1). A new rapid embedding technique using dimethoxypropane (DMP) as dehydrating agent (13) has permitted ultrastructural analyses of the surface features of the platelet-plasma interface.Aliquots of human or rabbit platelet-rich plasma (PRP) were added to equal volumes of 6% glutaraldehyde in Millonig's buffer at 37° for 45 minutes, rinsed in buffer and postfixed in 1% osmium in Millonig's buffer for 45 minutes.
