Multifunctional platforms loaded with chemical drugs.

Loaded drug Mechanism Diseases and Curative Effects References
17β-estradiol Estrogen. Significantly inhibits IUA-increased TGF-β1, epidermal growth factor and PDGF-BB levels; promotes ESR1 levels; promotes PI3K/Akt and ERK1/2 signaling activation, and inhibits endoplasmic reticulum stress. Postoperative estrogen therapy can be used to prevent recurrent adhesions; estrogen can increase the number of cells in endometrial damage and promote endometrial regeneration; inhibit endoplasmic reticulum stress-related apoptosis [145]
Sitagliptin Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) inhibitor. Promotes stem cell homing and enrichment to the site of tissue damage Inhibits the expression of DIO2, a marker gene of senescent decidual cells, increases endometrial-media embryonic stem cells, and reduces decidual senescence [166]
Pentoxyphene Medications that increase endometrial blood flow Treats endometrial damage [167]
Tocopherol
Sildenafil
Vc Regulatory factor. Promotes stem cell survival, promotes endometrial recovery, promotes keratin, vWF expression recovery, reduces IL-1β Attenuates the cytotoxic effect of PF-127, promotes cell survival and growth during encapsulation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, and promotes intimal regeneration. [114]
Mitomycin C Antibiotics. Inhibits the cell viability of endometrial stromal cells, promotes G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, and inhibits the synthesis and secretion of type I collagen. [168]
Metformin Anti-diabetic drugs. Inhibits ER stress-induced apoptosis through PI3K/Akt and ERK1/2 pathways. [169]
Silver ions Fungicide. Exhibits anti-infective effect. Works synergistically with other ingredients facilitating endometrial regeneration, fertility restoration, and live birth of offspring [170]
