The invention relates to red blood cell-derived vesicles comprising encapsulated active agents, their use in therapy and methods of production thereof.

Provided herein are erythrocytes with polymeric particles (i.e., ‘backpacks’) adhered that provide delivery of payload therapeutic agents to subjects administered these cells.

The invention provides methods, compositions, and medical kits comprising a nitrite-reductase promoter, such as an allosteric modulator of hemoglobin, for use in treating medical disorders and preservation of blood products. In one aspect, the invention provides methods, compositions, and medical kits comprising an inorganic nitrite salt and a nitrite-reductase promoter, such as an allosteric modulator of hemoglobin, for use in treating medical disorders, such as cancer, cardiovascular disorders, ischemic conditions, hemolytic conditions, and bacterial infections. Exemplary inorganic nitrite salts include sodium nitrite and arginine nitrite. Exemplary allosteric modulators of hemoglobin described herein include alkyl-substituted and acyl-substituted di-nitroheterocycles.
