研究发现,负载的吲哚菁绿使LMIBP在808纳米近红外激光照射下具有良好的光热转换能力。在安全功率密度下,纳米颗粒分散液温度可温和升高至约42°C,此温度既能有效触发后续反应,又可避免组织损伤。细胞毒性实验表明,LMIBP本身及其在激光照射条件下的生物相容性良好,背根神经节细胞存活率均超过90%。-2, 5 min).

在最关键的镇痛效能评估中,LMIBP展现了非凡的效果。在小鼠切口疼痛模型中,单次注射游离左旋布比卡胺的镇痛作用仅能维持约3小时,而LMIBP在不加激光照射时,就将镇痛时间延长至超过48小时。当在镇痛效果减弱的特定时间点(如54小时)施加近红外激光照射,能够再次显著提升小鼠的机械缩足阈值和热缩足潜伏期,实现“按需”的疼痛缓解重启。这种效果在传统聚乙二醇化纳米颗粒中无法实现。值得注意的是,当使用药物Pegcetacoplan预先抑制体内的补体C3功能后,传统纳米颗粒的镇痛时长得以延长,并与LMIBP的效果相当,这直接证明了“抑制补体-炎症轴”是LMIBP实现长效镇痛的根本原因。2, 5 min) across distinct time intervals.
