ABSTRACT=<p>In recent years, studies have shown a close relationship between cardiomyocyte death and ferroptosis. Clioquinol (CQ) can inhibit ferroptosis. Porous lipid-poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microbubbles (MBs) were prepared by double emulsification (W<sub>1</sub>/O/W<sub>2</sub>) using 1,2-dioctadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phophocholine and PLGA as raw materials. Porous lipid-PLGA MBs were used as carriers to prepare CQ/PLGA MBs containing CQ. CQ/PLGA had the advantages of high drug loading, good biocompatibility, and sustained release. Our results showed that CQ/PLGA improved the effect of CQ and reduced its cytotoxicity. Under low-frequency ultrasound with certain parameters, CQ/PLGA showed steady-state cavitation, which increased the membrane permeability of mouse cardiomyocyte HL-1 to a certain extent and further prevented the process of ferroptosis in mouse cardiomyocyte HL-1.</p>
