Microfluidic Electroporation-Facilitated Synthesis of Erythrocyte Membrane-Coated Magnetic Nanoparticles for Enhanced Imaging-Guided Cancer Therapy
Abstract
Biomimetic cell membrane-coated nanoparticles (CM-NPs) with superior biochemical properties have been broadly utilized for various biomedical applications. Currently, researchers primarily focus on using ultrasonic treatment and mechanical extrusion to improve the synthesis of CM-NPs. In this work, we demonstrate that microfluidic electroporation can effectively facilitate the synthesis of CM-NPs. To test it, Fe 3 O 4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNs) and red blood cell membrane-derived vesicles (RBC-vesicles) are infused into a microfluidic device. When the mixture of MNs and RBC-vesicles flow through the electroporation zone, the electric pulses can effectively promote the entry of MNs into RBC-vesicles. After that, the resulting RBC membrane-capped MNs (RBC-MNs) are collected from the chip and injected into experimental animals to test the in vivo performance. Owing to the superior magnetic and photothermal properties of the MN cores and the long blood circulation characteristic of the RBC membrane shells, core–shell RBC-MNs were used for enhanced tumor magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and photothermal therapy (PTT). Due to the completer cell membrane coating, RBC-MNs prepared by microfluidic electroporation strategy exhibit significantly better treatment effect than the one fabricated by conventional extrusion. We believe the combination of microfluidic electroporation and CM-NPs provides an insight into the synthesis of bioinpired nanoparticles to improve cancer diagnosis and therapy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
