AI Technical Summary
Current treatments for diabetic cardiomyopathy and diabetic nephropathy lack effective methods to selectively deliver thyroid hormones to stressed cells, leading to adverse effects from high doses and inadequate targeting.
A delivery system comprising lipid or polymeric nanoparticles loaded with thyroid hormones, specifically targeting the TRPC6 receptor overexpressed in stressed podocytes and cardiomyocytes, to minimize systemic distribution and reduce toxicity.
The nanoparticle-based delivery system effectively increases intracellular T3 levels in targeted cells, enhancing their repairing and regenerating abilities while minimizing adverse effects, thereby treating diabetic cardiomyopathy and nephropathy effectively.
