Abstract Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is one of the most threatening pathogens for its latent infection in macrophages. The intracellular MTB isolated itself from drugs and could spread via macrophages. Therefore, a mannose-modified macrophagetargeting solid lipid nanoparticle, MAN-IC-SLN, loading the pH-sensitive prodrug of isoniazid (INH), was designed to treat the latent tuberculosis infection. The surface of SLNs was modified by a synthesized 6-octadecylimino-hexane-1,2,3,4,5-pentanol (MAN-SA) to target macrophages, and the modified SLNs showed a higher cell uptake in macrophages (97.2%) than unmodified SLNs (42.4%). The prodrug, isonicotinic acid octylidene-hydrazide (INH-CHO), was synthesized to achieve the pH-sensitive release of INH in macrophages. The INH-CHO-loaded SLNs exhibited a pH-sensitive release profile and accomplished a higher accumulated release in pH 5.5 media (82.63 ± 2.12%) compared with the release in pH 7.4 media (58.83 ± 3.84%). Mycobacterium smegmatis was used as a substitute for MTB, and the MAN-IC-SLNs showed a fourfold increase of intracellular antibiotic efficacy and enhanced macrophage uptake because of the pH-sensitive degradation of INH-CHO and MAN-SA in SLNs, respectively. For the in vivo antibiotic efficacy test, the SLNs group displayed an 83% decrease of the colony-forming unit while the free INH group only showed a 60% decrease. The study demonstrates that macrophage targeting and pH-sensitive SLNs can be used as a promising platform for the latent tuberculosis infection. Keywords Latent tuberculosis infection .
