ABSTRACT:
2
development of hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs). To avoid the oxidative
3
toxicity, we designed and synthesized polydopamine coated hemoglobin (Hb-PDA)
4
nanoparticles via simple one-step assemblage without any toxic reagent. Hb-PDA
5
nanoparticles showed oxidative protection of Hb by inhibiting the generation of
6
methemoglobin (MetHb) and ferryl (Fe IV) Hb, as well as excellent antioxidant
7
properties by scavenging free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS).
8
Interestingly, the scavenging rate of Hb-PDA nanoparticles for ABTS+ radical is at
9
most 89% while for DPPH radical it reaches 49%. In addition, Hb-PDA efficiently
10
reduced the intracellular H2O2-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation.
11
Moreover, Hb-PDA nanoparticles exhibited high oxygen affinity, low effect on blood
12
constituents and low cytotoxicity. The results indicate that polydopamine coated
13
hemoglobin might be a promising approach for constructing novel oxygen carriers
14
with the capacity to reduce oxidative side reaction.

INTRODUCTION
2
Blood transfusion, clinically significant for saving lives and maintaining the
3
organisms’ normal physiologic functions, is widely applied in surgical operations,
4
nature disasters and battlefield wounds. However, the risks of virus transmission,
5
short shelf life and severe shortage seriously affect the availability of blood-based
6
products. Hemoglobin (Hb) possesses the ability to transport and transfer oxygen as
7
blood substitutes to re-establish oxygen homeostasis in tissues. Nevertheless,
8
unmodified hemoglobin is not ideal oxygen carriers since they have two main
9
problems: one is the dissociation into dimers resulting in a short circulation time and
10
renal toxicity; the other is connected with oxidative stress injury.1 Therefore, various
11
approaches have been adopted to explore the possibilities for improvement on
12
HBOCs, such as crosslinking,2,3 surface modification4 and encapsulation.5
13
Unfortunately, serious adverse effects still occurred in phase II and phase III clinical
14
trials.6, 7 For example, the lipid peroxidation related to the oxidative toxicity could be
15
hindering the application of liposome-encapsulated Hb (LEH) as oxygen carriers.
16
Meanwhile, either the chemically modified HBOCs or the encapsulated HBOCs
17
require the complex procedure to prepare such as emulsification and cross bonding
18
using inorganic reagents like glutaraldehyde,imposing restrictions on applying the
19
HBOCs. Moreover, oxidative side reactions of HBOCs caused by oxidative state
20
formation of Hb are still an important issue which needs to be addressed.8, 9 Hb in its
21
reduced state could be auto-oxidized to generate MetHb which is incapable of
22
transporting oxygen. The increasing MetHb levels (>10%) significantly decreases the
23
oxygen supply to tissues transported by the total Hb.10 In addition, the ROS such as
24
hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) would be generated by Hb during autoxidation.11
25
Consequently, the ferryl oxidation state through the reaction of Hb with H2O2
26
promotes oxidative side reactions because of the heme degradation products or iron
27
release.12 Meanwhile when the ischemic tissue is reperfused in hemorrhagic shock
28
and other disease states, the over-generation of superoxide (O2-) and H2O2 promotes
29
oxidative toxicity of Hb and even oxidative damages. Such oxidative side reactions 3

might be associated with the lack of protection by redox cycling (e.g. catalase,
2
glutathione) in HBOCs.13 Chang et al. reported a strategy has been taken to minimize
3
the above-mentioned side reactions based on cross-linking Hb with superoxide
4
dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) extracted from RBCs.14 A specific strategy we
5
need is necessary not only to reduce the autoxidation of Hb, but also to attenuate the
6
oxidative damage. Hb copolymerized with rubrerythrin or binded with haptoglobin
7
(Hp) have been recognized as the prevention of Hb auto-oxidation.15,
8
bovine Hb crosslinks intra-molecularly with ATP and inter-molecularly with
9
adenosine, and conjugates with glutathione (GSH) as the oxygen carrier,
10
HemoTech.17 A new approach of incorporating a Pt nanoparticle (PtNP) embedded
11
into the exterior HSA units has showed superoxide dismutase and catalase activities
12
as the improvement of a Hb-HSA3 cluster.18, 19 The preparing procedure of the above
13
approaches may be relatively complicated because of chemical cross-linking,
14
meanwhile adding some inorganic reagents, which may be have influence on Hb
15
activities. It is therefore essential to develop simple methods to prepare HBOCs to
16
reduce the autoxidation of Hb and attenuate the oxidative damage.
16
Purified
17
Polydopamine (PDA) as a novel coating material could be strongly attached to
18
virtually all types of the substrate surfaces in an efficient and simple process.20, 21
19
Recently, Ben Wang et al. reported a catecholic chemistry-based strategy to shelter
20
antigenic epitopes on Red Blood Cells (RBCs) using PDA against agglutination.22
21
Furthermore, PDA has been showing great promise for biomedical applications with
22
excellent hemocompatibility and biocompatibility. Meanwhile, PDA-modified
23
surfaces could effectively inhibit platelet adhesion and fibrinogen conformation
24
transition.23 In addition, PDA would not affect the viability or proliferation of many
25
kinds of mammalian cells and showed no tissue damage, inflammatory action, or
26
fibrosis.24-26 Moreover, PDA could be acted as an antioxidant agent, which could
27
scavenge free radicals caused by the distinct hydroquinone moiety.27
28
In this work, we focused on the desirable properties of the PDA coating to
29
encapsulate Hb via a simple one-step process. The morphology and chemical
30
properties were characterized. The oxygen-carrying capacity, effect on blood 4

20
coagulation test designed to assess fibrin formation from fibrinogen following
21
activation of thrombin (volume ratio to PPP 2:1). Fibrinogen (Fbg) is known as a
22
soluble protein in the plasma that is broken down to fibrin by the enzyme thrombin to
23
form clots following activation of thrombin (volume ratio to PPP 2:1).

Fabrication and Characterization. To successfully synthesize the Hb-PDA, Hb was
11
incubated with dopamine hydrochloride in Tris-HCl buffer solution (pH 8.5) at 4 oC
12
under slight stirring. Color of the solution quickly changed from red to brown and
13
eventually became black on account of the polymerization of dopamine (Figure 1A). 12

Unlike glutaraldehyde cross-linked Hb by reactions of amino groups33 and
2
PEG-conjugated Hb by reactions of sulfhydryl groups34 as oxygen carriers, PDA has
3
scarcely any chemical reaction with the groups of Hb amino acids and closely bonds
4
on Hb surfaces. For the attachment mechanism, PDA contains catechol function
5
groups can form covalent or strong noncovalent interactions, such as p-electron,
6
hydrogen-bonding, and other interactions.20 Compared with particle-encapsulated
7
hemoglobin using liposomes35 and polymeric particles,5 the method to prepare
8
Hb-PDA is via one-step assemblage without any toxic reagent and easy to enlarge the
9
synthetic system, avoiding liposome peroxidation and the complex preparation. The
10
size of Hb-PDA nanoparticles were approximately 6-8 nm (Figure 1B) and showed no
11
obvious changes for at least 7 days (Figure 1C). The transmission electron
12
microscopy (TEM) image also revealed that the PDA deposited on the Hb surface and
13
developed uniform nanoparticles (Figure 1D).

The integrity of Hb structure in HBOCs is fundamental for transporting oxygen.
3
FTIR was used to identify the influence of the preparation process on Hb structure
4
(Figure 2A). The C-O stretching band (amide I) was located at 1643 cm-1 and the N-H
5
bending band (amide II) at 1528 cm-1 in the spectrum of the Hb and Hb-PDA, which
6
demonstrated a negligible change in the chemical structure of the Hb after PDA
7
coated.36 The peaks at 809 cm-1and 875 cm-1 corresponding to the three and five
8
substituted benzene stretching vibrations showed the modification of PDA layer. In
9
addition, the Hb with a PDA coating was also monitored through scanning 220 nm to
10
650 nm using a UV-vis spectrometer. The absorption peaks at 414 nm is regarded to
11
as the Soret band and two further peaks between 500 and 600 nm as the Q-band,
12
varying with the ligand state of the heme and oxygenation of Hb. It can be seen from
13
Figure 2B, three maxima bands at 414, 540 and 574 nm were the characteristic peaks
14
of Hb-PDA in accordance with OxyHb, which reveals integrity of oxyHb structure.

The absorbance spectra of oxidation products from dopamine exhibiting a
16
eumelanin-like character a characteristic band around 280 nm and a broad-band
17
absorption throughout the visible region.37 After the encapsulation, Hb-PDA showed
18
the additional characteristic peak at 279 nm, which was also proved that the
19
generation of PDA coating. To confirm whether the encapsulation process has
20
influence on the bioactivity of Hb, we detected the secondary structures via CD. As
21
shown in Figure 2C, comparing the CD spectrum of Hb-PDA with that of Hb, the
22
characteristic absorption peaks of the α-helix at 194, 210 and 224 nm were almost
23
identical and the content of α-helix about Hb and Hb-PDA was 94.8% and 93.1%,
24
respectively, which illustrated that the preparation process rarely influence on the
25
secondary structure of Hb.38
26
As an oxygen carrier, the primary biological function of Hb-PDA is maintaining
27
the capacity to bind and release oxygen. Figure 2D shows ODCs of Hb-PDA and Hb.

Oxidative Protection of Hb. The iron in Hb molecule is easy to bind and release
12
oxygen and converts into MetHb, which impairs the oxygen-carrying capacity and
13
leads to inflammation (Figure 3A). Redox character about PDA is related to the
14
quinone groups because of release of electrons during the spontaneous oxidation

progress.20 To confirm whether PDA could protect Hb against the formation of
16
MetHb, the evaluation of the oxidation protection activity was conducted via FRAP

assay kit. The insert of Figure 3B reveals that Hb has no reducing power on Fe (III), 15

while Hb-PDA could convert Fe (III) into Fe (II). Moreover, the reducing ability was
2
improved with the increasing concentration of PDA (Figure 3B). The functionality of
3
the oxidation protection activity of Hb was monitored via UV-vis spectrum (Figure
4
3C). The oxygenation of oxyHb exhibited typical absorption peaks at 414, 540 and
5
574 nm, whereas MetHb showed the characteristic peaks at 406 and 500 nm caused
6
by oxidation of iron.40 There was a red shift in the absorption spectra of MetHb
7
solution after incubation with the Hb-PDA and the absorbance peaks at 500 nm of
8
MetHb could be not scarcely observed in MetHb and Hb-PDA mixture solution,
9
which exhibit slightly protective activity on Fe(II) because of PDA. Therefore, the
10
PDA coating is beneficial for oxidative protection of Hb to maintain its
11
oxygen-carrying capacity.

Antioxidant properties of Hb-PDA. Free radicals keep a balance between
2
production and elimination in the body. During severe injury and shock, the increase
3
of intracellular H2O2 accounts for the excessive generation of free radicals. Thus,
4
HBOCs with free radicals scavenging ability is significant in practical application.
5
PDA was recognized as an efficient antioxidant in the biological system for the
6
distinct hydroquinone moiety. To verify whether PDA could maintain the antioxidant
7
properties in Hb-PDA nanoparticles, in vitro antioxidant activities of Hb-PDA were
8
studied in detail.
9
The potential antioxidant activity of synthesized Hb-PDA nanoparticles was
10
extensively evaluated by DPPH and ABTS+ radical-scavenging assay. In Figure 4A,
11
after incubation with Hb-PDA nanoparticles, the absorbance at 734 nm of the all
12
samples decreased because of the scavenging ABTS+ radical. According to Figure 4B,
13
the ABTS+ radical scavenging effect of Hb-PDA nanoparticles enhanced at most up to
14
89% in dose-dependent manner, which involved electron-transfer process.41 As shown
15
in Figure 4C, the absorbance of DPPH at 520 nm was decreased, which represented
16
the ability of Hb-PDA with DPPH radical scavenging activity. In Figure 4D, the
17
scavenging ability of Hb-PDA nanoparticles on DPPH in dose-dependent manner and
18
reached 49% at the concentration of 0.5 mM due to the hydrogen-donating ability.
19
Taken together, Hb-PDA nanoparticles have an excellent antioxidant capacity through
20
scavenging a variety of free radicals. In addition, a higher concentration of Hb-PDA
21
nanoparticles shows a stronger antioxidant activity.

that Hb-PDA nanoparticles have scarcely influence on the ADP induced platelets
2
aggregation process. Furthermore, the radios of the platelets aggregation were no
3
difference in groups with different concentrations. The above-mentioned results might
4
be related to the rich in quinone of Hb-PDA or poor in amino groups.23
5
The evaluation of Hb-PDA impact on RBCs was also performed by a hemolysis
6
assay. Hemolytic activity of Hb-PDA is critical to the intravenous injection. If the
7
extent of hemolysis via the quantitation of free hemoglobin in the mixed solution is
8
higher than 5%, the sample would induce hemolytic.28 As shown in Figure 6B,
9
Hb-PDA nanoparticles with different concentrations showed a minor impact on the
10
hemolysis radio of RBCs.
11
Nanoparticles-induced clotting is still a main barrier in the clinical application. Fan
12
et al. showed that PDA, as a surface modifier, can inhibit alteration of plasma proteins
13
which triggers the coagulation of blood.30 The influences of control substrates on the
14
duration time of coagulation pathways were investigated. According to Figure 6C, the
15
results indicated no significant differences between the PT, TT and Fbg values of
16
control (0.9% NaCl solution) group and those of Hb-PDA group. Thus, the
17
coagulation assay results suggest that Hb-PDA nanoparticles had lower effect on
18
coagulation process relative to control.
19
Cytotoxicity of Hb-PDA. In vitro cytotoxicity of the Hb-PDA on HUVEC was
20
assessed by a CCK-8 assay. Figure 6D demonstrates that different concentrations of
21
Hb-PDA had no significant cytotoxic activity on the HUVEC after co-incubation for
22
24 h. Therefore, Hb-PDA nanoparticles would be a potential oxygen carrier because
23
of its excellent biocompatibility of the nanoparticles.

CONCLUSION
2
In summary, we have presented a novel HBOC employing the bio-inspired PDA to
3
encapsulate Hb with oxygen-carrying and antioxidant activities. Due to the simple
4
preparation method, Hb-PDA could maintain the integrity of Hb chemical structure
5
without introducing any toxic reagent. And the oxidative action of Hb to MetHb and
6
ferryl was decreased during the PDA coating. Excitingly, Hb-PDA exhibited excellent
7
antioxidant activity. The DPPH radical scavenging effect of Hb-PDA was almost 1.44
8
times as that of trolox and the ABTS+ radical scavenging effect reached 2 times. In
9
addition, Hb-PDA nanoparticles show the suppressive effects on intracellular ROS
10
generation. Moreover, Hb-PDA nanoparticles have low influen on blood constituents
11
and cell viability. These excellent characteristics suggested that polydopamine coated
12
hemoglobin represented a promising progress for novel oxygen carriers.
