Myocardial infarction (MI) induces cardiomyocyte necrosis, inflammation, fibrosis, and ventricular remodeling, leading to heart failure. To address this, we developed an intelligent cardiac patch, SMM@Gel, composed of a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive PVA-TSPBA hydrogel matrix reinforced via solvent exchange and salting-out technology, loaded with mannose-functionalized, danshensu sodium-loaded hollow mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (Sa@mPDA-Man). This design makes sustained drug release and ROS scavenging come true. In vitro, studies demonstrated SMM@Gel promoted endothelial tube formation (24 ± 3 nodes vs. 6 ± 2 in controls) and M2 macrophage polarization (CD206+ cells) while reducing inflammation (iNOS downregulation). In vivo, experiments in MI rats revealed SMM@Gel preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF: 52.3 % ± 4.1 % vs. 38.5 % ± 3.2 % in the saline group), normalized ventricular dimensions (EDV/ESV) and enhanced wall thickness. Histological analysis showed reduced infarct size (18.7 % ± 2.5 % vs. 32.1 % ± 3.8 %), decreased inflammation, and improved neovascularization. RNA-seq identified pathways linked to angiogenesis, inflammation resolution, and extracellular matrix remodeling. These findings highlight SMM@Gel's potential as a dual-action therapy for MI, combining ROS scavenging, anti-inflammatory effects, and angiogenic promotion to mitigate post-MI remodeling and preserve cardiac function.
