As a hydrophobic core, poly (lactic - co - glycolic acid) can effectively encapsulate hydrophobic drugs, avoid direct contact between the drugs and the external environment, and significantly improve the chemical stability and storage period of the drugs. Combined with targeted molecular modification, the poly (lactic - co - glycolic acid) carrier can extend the in - vivo circulation time and achieve passive targeted accumulation of drugs in tumor tissues through the enhanced permeability and retention effect.

[0151] Treat mice with the arteriosclerosis treatment pharmaceutical compositions containing dTRI M24 nanoparticles prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-2:

[0152] Twenty-five ApoE gene knockout mice induced by a high-fat diet were selected to simulate the characteristics of human cardiovascular diseases;

[0153] The twenty-five ApoE gene knockout mice induced by a high-fat diet were divided into 5 groups, with 5 mice in each group. Among them, three groups were respectively treated with the arteriosclerosis treatment drug compositions containing dTRIM24 nanoparticles prepared in Examples 1 to 3, the low / high dose groups of dTRIM24 nanoparticles, and the other two groups were respectively treated with the arteriosclerosis treatment drug compositions prepared in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2;

[0154] After 20 days, the lipid core area as a proportion of the total plaque volume was quantified by aortic tissue section, and the levels of inflammatory factors such as IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β in the plaques were measured by ELISA. The treatment results are shown in Table 1:

[0156] Table 1

[0157] As can be seen from the above table, in Examples 1 to 3, although the arteriosclerosis treatment drug compositions containing dTRIM24 nanoparticles were prepared using the same materials, due to the amounts of the materials used, the particle sizes of the prepared nanocarriers were inconsistent, which in turn led to differences in the treatment effects. The materials and amounts used in Comparative Example 1 were the same as those in Example 3, but when preparing the nanocarrier, a metal-organic framework shell formed by the coordination of zinc ions and epigallocatechin gallate was not coated on the surface of the poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), resulting in differences in the treatment effects. Compared with Comparative Example 1, in the preparation of the arteriosclerosis treatment drug composition in Comparative Example 2, no active drug was added, resulting in an insignificant treatment effect.

[0158] In summary, a pharmaceutical composition for treating arteriosclerosis containing dTRI M24 nanoparticles of the present invention uses a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) copolymer as a carrier core, encapsulates dTRI M24 and auxiliary drugs, and is coated with a targeting modification layer on the surface, which can provide sustained release and stability. The poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) copolymer is composed of lactic acid and glycolic acid, and its degradation products are water and carbon dioxide, which have no toxic and side effects on the human body, have excellent biocompatibility, can precisely control the material degradation rate, meet the requirements of different drug release cycles, and the degradation time ranges from several weeks to several months. The poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) copolymer can form a stable nanoparticle structure, slowly release the encapsulated drug through hydrolysis, reduce the dosing frequency and maintain a stable blood drug concentration, and is particularly suitable for scenarios such as anti-tumor drugs and vaccines that require long-term treatment. As a hydrophobic core, the poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) copolymer can effectively encapsulate hydrophobic drugs, avoid direct contact between the drug and the external environment, and significantly improve the chemical stability and storage period of the drug. Combined with targeted molecular modification, the poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) copolymer carrier can extend the in vivo circulation time and achieve passive targeting accumulation of the drug in tumor tissues through the enhanced permeability and retention effect, and enhance the targeting to atherosclerotic plaques. Cholesterol efflux promoters can be integrated into the liposome suspension layer to accelerate lipid metabolism. The added epigallocatechin gallate can reduce the oxidative stress in the plaque microenvironment, and at the same time release anti-inflammatory drugs to inhibit the inflammatory response. The nanocarrier with a particle size of 50 nm helps to penetrate the vascular endothelial barrier. In particular, there may be vascular endothelial damage in the atherosclerotic plaque area, and smaller nanoparticles are more likely to penetrate into the lesion site. At the same time, the small particle size can enhance the retention ability of the nanocarrier in the blood vessel wall, and the treatment effect is better.
