Early on in the pandemic, Lee Makowski read an article about the condition of peoples bodies after dying of COVID-19, and he was shocked by what he learnedthere was something very wrong with the patients blood.

The autopsy reports revealed COVID-19 patients were suffering from huge amounts of thick, coagulated blood, and dysfunctional blood vessels were tearing through body tissue instead of repairing ithighly uncommon side effects of respiratory diseases.

The postmortem evidence plus his own experience with something called COVID toesan odd side effect of the disease that causes heightened blood vessel formation in the toes, turning them bright redled Makowski to speculate that something about the virus might be causing abnormal blood-related complications.

One of the most perplexing and devastating effects of this disease is the scenario where three or four weeks after being hospitalized with pneumonia, people under the age of 50 are back home, they feel fine, and then all of a sudden they have a stroke and die, says Makowski, professor and chair of the bioengineering department at Northeastern.

Makowski, who recently published his hypothesis in the journal Viruses, believes the spike protein found on the surface of the virus might mimic proteins that regulate blood vessels and control the formation of blood clots, which could explain many of the non-respiratory complications of COVID-19.

The spike protein is an arm-like apparatus that the virus uses to attach to and enter healthy cells. At the tip of the spike protein rests a string of three amino acids called RGD. This structure is known for connecting cells to each other in the body.

Researchers dont know yet whether RGD is the culprit for COVID-19s blood-related complications, but they do know that RGD can contribute to the formation of blood clots and the growth of new blood vessels when it interacts with cell receptors called integrins.

Other proteins that have RGD are known to cause complications. Our theory is that RGD is making it easier for the virus to bind to things that could cause these blood complications, says William Olson-Sidford, a third-year bioengineering student and co-author of the paper who worked on this project as a co-op last fall.

Right now, researchers know that the viruss spike protein binds to cell receptors called ACE2. ACE2 is found in many cell types including in the lungs, heart, blood vessels, kidneys, liver, and gastrointestinal tract.

But our theory is that because [the virus] has an RGD, it may also be more likely to bind to other cells in the body that people arent thinking about, Olson-Sidford says.

Makowski hypothesizes that dysregulated blood vessel growthwhich can disrupt lung tissueis triggered by an increase of RGD during infection.

As for COVID-19-related kidney failure, its hard to know whether its caused by direct damage to the tissue by viral invasion or indirect damage through coagulation and blocked arteries, Makowski says. But either way, a faulty connection between RGD and integrin could be the culprit.

Recognizing that coagulation is a major problem has greatly improved the survival rate of people who are severely sick with COVID-19, Makowski says. Now if you end up in the ICU, you almost always get an anticoagulant, and that saves a lot of lives.

Uncovering the cause of that coagulation is the next step. Makowski hopes his hypothesis will spur other researchers to investigate further.

2021 Exclusive Insights on: Rhodiola Extract Market to Witness Robust Expansion throughout the Forecast Period| Martin Bauer Group, Parchem, The Green...

A research team led by Samir Mitragotri, the Hiller Professor of Bioengineering and Hansjorg Wyss Professor of Biologically Inspired Engineering at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and Rahmi Oklu, of the Mayo Clinic, report the development of a new ionic liquid formulation that killed cancer cells and allowed uniform distribution of a chemotherapy drug into liver tumors and other solid tumors in the lab. This discovery could solve a problem that has long plagued drug delivery to tumors and provide new hope to patients with liver cancer awaiting a liver transplant.

The preclinical study results are published in Science Translational Medicine.

Uniform drug delivery to tumors is often riddled with challenges. Higher drug doses are often used to encourage drug delivery into the tumor, and these higher doses could lead to significant toxicity.

"If the drug cannot penetrate the tumor and remain there, then it cannot do its job," said Oklu, the director of Mayo Clinics Minimally Invasive Therapeutics Laboratory.

Current treatment involves ablation, which involves heating or cooling the tumor or infusing radioactive particles into the arteries of the tumor to destroy the cancer cells and keep patients within the criteria for a transplant.

"You could do a microwave ablation and basically burn the tumor, but that is often not an option if the tumor is close to the heart or other important structures. And sometimes it is hard to find the blood supply of the tumor to infuse the radioactive particles," said Oklu.

The research team developed an ionic liquid essentially salt in a liquid state as an alternative way to deliver drugs into tumors through an ultrasound-guided needle injection. Once injected, the ionic liquid deposited the chemotherapy drugs uniformly, killing the cancer cells as the liquid engulfed the tumors.

Mitragotri and his lab have been pioneering the use of ionic liquids for all kinds of treatment applications, including as a way to deliver insulin by skin patches and pills, as nanoparticle coatings for targeted delivery, as vaccine adjuvants, and as a way to deliver therapeutics to treat psoriasis.

Ionic liquids are an exceptionally versatile group of materials, said Mitragotri. In our lab, we have already demonstrated that they have the ability to overcome a variety of biological barriers within the body for delivering drugs. In this study, we demonstrate a novel application of ionic liquids to deliver chemotherapeutic drugs in the liver tumor.

The researchers reported this approach was successful in preclinical studies using freshly resected human tumors in the lab and liver tumors in animal models. In addition, the authors reported that the chemotherapy remained in the targeted zone for the length of the 28-day trial.

Whereas drugs often wash away quickly from direct injection into tumors or from standard IV delivery of chemotherapy through the veins of the arm, the ionic liquid, which the authors call a "locally active agent for tumor treatment and eradication," or LATTE, also encouraged immune cell infiltration in the microenvironment of the tumor. This may play a role in achieving immunotherapy in solid tumors. The researchers say this could solve current challenges, especially in hepatocellular carcinoma the most common form of liver cancer where liver transplant can be curative.

The authors suggest that LATTE may work via diverse methods, and future studies are planned to expand on these preclinical findings. Future efforts might examine additional chemotherapy drugs, effects of immunotherapy agents and effects on overall survival, and involve a detailed analysis of local and body-wide immune implications of this experimental intervention.

This has been a very exciting collaboration, said Mitrigotri. Our lab focuses on chemistry, material science and engineering aspects of ionic liquids. This collaborative study with interventional radiologist Dr. Oklus lab at Mayo Clinic has enabled us to demonstrate a novel application of these amazing materials.

In addition to Oklu, Mayo Clinic authors include lead author Hassan Albadawi, Zefu Zhang, Izzet Altun, Jingjie Hu, and Leila Jamal. In addition to Mitragotri, authors from Harvard University are Kelly Ibsen, and Eden Tanner.

This study was funded by the National Institutes of Health.
