Description
Summary:Magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONP) present the promising instrument for broad‐spectrum of clinical applications, for example, targeted drug delivery. Reactivity of nanoparticles depends on their surface area and material. In the blood plasma IONP are getting covered with an albumin crown, so it was decided to test this shell for biocompatibility. Male Wistar rats were anesthetized and underwent laparotomy. Abdominal aorta was connected to external hemodynamic loop with regulated blood flow. Hind body quarter got step‐like blood flow changing from 30 to 150 mmHg and back. This was followed with i.v. injection of IONP, albumin solution or albumin‐covered IONP and consequent similar flow changes. Central hemodynamics—heart rate and mean arterial pressure were registered throughout the experiment and no significant changes in these parameters were observed. Hind paw microcirculation level had the same dynamic in all groups under changing blood flow conditions. At the end, venous blood was collected for endothelin‐1 and NO evaluation that showed similar changes and no endothelial damage. Mesenteric arteries and femoral artery reactivity were evaluated with wire myography. Mesenteric arteries had the most relaxing function preservation after albumin‐covered IONP injection. Given data reveal advantage of albumin‐coated IONP so this can be used for further investigations as a vascular‐safe vehicle.
