Abstract Background and Aims Alteration to both the structures and functions of mesenteric lymphatic vessels is a typical hallmark of Crohn’s disease [CD]. Dysfunctional lymphatics was observed in patients with both CD and experimental colitis, suggesting mesenteric lymphatics could be potential therapeutic targets. This study aimed to develop a nano-delivery system which can enhance drug delivery in mesenteric lymphatic tissue [MLT] and evaluate the therapeutic effects in Crohn’s colitis. Methods We designed a mesoporous silica nanoparticle [MSN] conjugated with long-chain fatty acid [LMSN] and covered with enteric coating [ELMSN] which can be specifically transported via the mesenteric lymphatic system. The therapeutic efficacy of laquinimod-loaded nanoparticles [LAQ@ELMSN] was evaluated in the well-established interleukin [IL]-10−/− spontaneous experimental colitis. Results ELMSNs induced sustainable drug release that markedly increased drug concentration in MLT. In experimental colitis, the lymphatics-targeting drug delivery system suppressed lymphangitis and promoted lymphatic drainage. The downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the downstream NF-κB-related proteins efficiently inhibited lymphangiogenesis and restored tight junctions of mesenteric lymphatic vessels [MLVs]. LAQ@ELMSN showed a superior therapeutic effect in ameliorating intestinal inflammation compared with free drug administration. Alteration of gut microbiota and metabolites in experimental colitis was also reversed by LAQ@ELMSN. Conclusion Our study demonstrates a convenient, orally administered drug delivery system which enhances drug release in MLT. The results confirm the contribution of the mesenteric lymphatic system to the pathogenesis of gut inflammation and shed light on the application of lymphatics-targeting drug delivery therapy as a potential therapeutic strategy for CD treatment.
