Phosphatidylserine (PtdSer), one of the phospholipids that the apoptotic cell exposes, has emerged for anti-inflammatory therapy via polarizing inflammatory microglia (Mi1) to anti-inflammatory phenotype (Mi2). In this study, we report microglia polarization effect of PtdSer-exposing polymeric particles (PSPs). PSPs upregulated Mi2 microglia and suppressed Mi1 microglia through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma upregulation in vitro and in vivo. This study highlights the potential of PSPs for anti-inflammatory therapy.
