Antibiotic-loaded nanoparticles targeted to the site of infection enhance antibacterial efficacy
Open accessAbstract
Bacterial resistance to antibiotics has made it necessary to resort to antibiotics that have considerable toxicities. Here, we show that the cyclic 9-amino acid peptide CARGGLKSC (CARG), identified via phage display on Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bacteria and through in vivo screening in mice with S. aureus-induced lung infections, increases the antibacterial activity of CARG-conjugated vancomycin-loaded nanoparticles in S. aureus-infected tissues and reduces the needed overall systemic dose, minimizing side effects. CARG binds specifically to S. aureus bacteria but not Pseudomonas bacteria in vitro, selectively accumulates in S. aureus-infected lungs and skin of mice but not in non-infected tissue and Pseudomonas-infected tissue, and significantly enhances the accumulation of intravenously injected vancomycin-loaded porous silicon nanoparticles bearing the peptide in S. aureus-infected mouse lung tissue. The targeted nanoparticles more effectively suppress staphylococcal infections in vivo relative to equivalent doses of untargeted vancomycin nanoparticles or of free vancomycin. The therapeutic delivery of antibiotic-carrying nanoparticles bearing peptides targeting infected tissue may help combat difficult-to-treat infections.

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.
