• Acute methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) pneumonia is one of the most frequently seen lung infection diseases with high morbidity and mortality. It is urgent to explore an efficient antibacterial strategy owing to the increase of drug resistance, virulence, and pathogenicity of MRSA. It was found that Fe3O4 can induce ferroptosis in MRSA, but its effect was inhibited by glutathione (GSH) to a certain extent, while cinnamaldehyde (CA) can enhance ferroptosis by consuming GSH. As a bacterial quorum sensing (QS) inhibitor, CA can suppress the QS system and further exert its antibacterial and antibiofilm effects. Here, we developed an Fe3O4-based ferroptosis inducer to promote ferroptosis in MRSA, interrupt the QS, destroy biofilm, and thus effectively treat acute MRSA pneumonia. We used sodium alginate (SA) to wrap Fe3O4 and CA to form particles, and then coated the surface with a hybrid biomimetic membrane composed of an erythrocyte membrane and platelet membrane to obtain lung targeted antibacterial particles (mFe-CA). Under ultrasonic (US) stimulation, mFe-CA can efficiently release Fe3O4 and CA, thereby synergically inducing MRSA death with the characteristics of ferroptosis, including mass ROS production, lipid peroxidation, GSH depletion, and respiratory chain suppression. Furthermore, mFe-CA + US can inhibit the QS system, remove biofilms, and reduce strain virulence. In the mouse model of MRSA pneumonia, mFe-CA + US treatment markedly advanced the survival rate of the mice, reduced the bacterial load in the lungs, and alleviated the inflammatory damage, but there was no obvious toxicity. This study proposes an antibacterial substitute to induce ferroptosis of MRSA, which may provide a foreground for overcoming microbial drug resistance and fighting biofilm-associated infections and also provides a target and theoretical basis for clinical treatment of acute MRSA pneumonia.
