Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a critical condition characterized by a rapid deterioration in kidney function, frequently resulting in severe complications and elevated mortality rates. Recent advancements in nanomedicine have introduced porphyrin-loaded gold (Au) functionalized polymeric nanodots (P-APNDs) as a promising therapeutic approach for AKI. The formation of P-APNDs was confirmed by analyzing physiochemical parameters such as FTIR, XRD, and TEM which revealed their spherical shape with a smaller size of 10 nm. The P-APND exhibits significant efficacy in alleviating AKI due to its preferential renal accumulation and potent antioxidant capacity. P-APND exhibited exceptional antioxidant properties in effectively scavenging various toxic free radicals, thereby providing efficient cellular protection against oxidative stresses in vitro at HEK 293 cell lines and found that P-APND was effective in treating cisplatin (Cs) induced cell lines. The in vivo analysis was carried out in a Cs-induced mice model. The accumulation of the drug in the kidney for a prolonged time shows the efficiency of the P-APND. The decreased serum creatinine levels and blood urea nitrogen confirm the improvement of kidney injury after the treatment with P-APND. Combining this therapy with comprehensive nursing care could mark a significant advancement in AKI management.
