Polydopamine Nanoparticles-Encapsulated Ferroptosis Inhibitor Ferstatin-1 Promotes GPX4 Expression by Down-Regulating NOX4 to Alleviate Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.

Polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) are a promising topic in the fields of drug delivery, tissue engineering, bioimaging, etc. The present study aims to explore the impact of PDA NPs carrying ferroptosis inhibitor ferstatin-1 (Fer-1) on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI).
