Aromatic aldehydes that increase hemoglobin (Hb) oxygen affinity (e.g., 5-HMF) can prevent hypoxia-induced erythrocyte sickling, but clinical efforts have been hindered by insufficient potency or poor pharmacokinetics. Herein, analogs of 5-HMF (MMA-500 series of compounds) are reported to retain 5-HMF positive physicochemical and pharmacodynamic properties, including safety, solubility, and relatively short duration of action that are essential for their acute use. Two analogs, MMA503 and MMA509, demonstrate over 3.3-fold greater in vitro antisickling activity than 5-HMF. This potency is evidenced by significantly enhanced Hb adduct formation, increased oxygen affinity, and robust inhibition of red blood cell sickling in sickle blood assays.

The physicochemical properties and morphology of MLB are characterized through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering. The Brij-coated MLB exhibited significantly improved stability in serum environments compared to MSN coated with an unmodified phospholipid bilayer.
