    查看更多>>摘要:Bone metastasis,a life-threatening complication of advanced breast cancer,is often accompanied by debilitating pain(cancer-induced bone pain,CIBP)that severely impairs life quality and survival.The concurrent treatment of bone metastases and CIBP remains a clinical challenge because the therapeu-tic options are limited.In this study,we construct a near-infrared light-activated nano-therapeutic sys-tem to meet this conundrum.In detail,sorafenib(SRF)and photosensitizer(chlorin e6,Ce6)are encap-sulated into mesoporous hydroxyapatite nanoparticles(HANPs),which are further functionalized with hyaluronic acid(HA)to obtain HA-SRF/Ce6@HANPs system.The designed nanoplatform destroys tumor cells in vitro and in vivo via the synergism of SRF(interrupting the exchange of cystine/glutamate by inhibiting SLC7A11)and photodynamic therapy(PDT,inducing reactive oxygen species generation).The decrease in tumor burden and reduction of extracellular glutamate significantly attenuate CIBP in mice model with developing bone cancer.Moreover,the combination of HA-SRF/Ce6@HANPs and PDT inhibit osteoclasts activation,promote osteoblast differentiation and accelerate bone repair.Overall,the nanoa-gent with good biocompatibility may provide an effective therapy method for the concurrent treatment of breast cancer bone metastasis and CIBP.

    查看更多>>摘要:Although it has been developed for many years,nucleic acid aptamer screening technology still fails to be widely used,a considerable part of it is due to the variability of tumor cell morphology,which leads to the use of immortalized cell lines in the laboratory to screen nucleic acid aptamers for recognition ability of tumor cells in the diseased body.To address this,primary cells that can be stably passaged were iso-lated and extracted from spontaneous tumors of genetically engineered pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma model mice in this study.Next,an automated screening instrument for nucleic acid aptamers developed autonomously by our group was used to perform efficient aptamer screening using a limited number of cells,and the obtained nucleic acid aptamers were affinity verified at the cellular level.Finally,to an-swer the question of the cell growth environment difference on the recognition ability of nucleic acid aptamers,we verified its targeting ability to tumors in vivo on a nude mice xenograft tumor model,and further used a common antitumor drug doxorubicin combined with nucleic acid aptamers to verify the drug loading ability of this aptamer combined with the targeting therapeutic ability.

    查看更多>>摘要:Immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICls)therapy targeting programmed cell death ligand 1(PD-L1)and pro-grammed death protein 1(PD-1)had exhibited significant clinical benefits for cancer treatment such as triple negative breast cancer(TNBC).However,the relatively low anti-tumor immune response rate and ICIs drug resistance highlight the necessity of developing ICIs combination therapy strategies to improve the anti-tumor effect of immunotherapy.Herein,the immunomodulator epigallocatechin gallate palmitate(PEGCG)and the immunoadjuvant metformin(MET)self-assembled into tumor-targeted micelles via hy-drogen bond and electrostatic interaction,which encapsulated the therapeutic agents doxorubicin(DOX)-loaded PEGCG-MET micelles(PMD)and combined with ICIs(anti-PD-1 antibody)as therapeutic strategy to reduce the endogenous expression of PD-L1 and improve the tumor immunosuppressive microenvi-ronment.The results presented that PMD integrated chemotherapy and immunotherapy to enhance an-titumor efficacy in vitro and in vivo,compared with DOX or anti-PD-1 antibody for the therapy of TNBC.PMD micelles might be a potential candidate,which could remedy the shortcomings of antibody-based ICIs and provide synergistic effect to enhance the antitumor effects of ICIs in tumor therapy.

    查看更多>>摘要:Nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC),a malignant tumor originating from the nasopharynx,is one of the common malignant tumors of the head and neck.There are significant geographical differences in the incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma,with a high incidence in China and Southeast Asian countries.Herein,we designed and synthesized a novel near-infrared fluorescent(NIRF)probe to detect glutathione(GSH)in cellular and tumor environments using semi-naphthofluorescein(SNAFL)as the fluorescent molecular backbone and 2-fluoro-4-nitrobenzenesulfonate as the recognition moiety.Upon reaction with GSH,SNAFL-GSH emitted a fluorescence signal,and its emission wavelength at 650 nm was remark-ably enhanced.The results of selectivity experiments indicated that SNAFL-GSH was able to discriminate GSH from Cys,Hcy,and H2S.Moreover,SNAFL-GSH could image both endogenous and exogenous GSH and distinguish normal and cancer cells by fluorescence signal difference.At the cellular level,cisplatin(DDP)-induced ferroptosis and inhibition of proliferation of various NPC cell lines(CNE2,CNE1,5-8F cells)by erastin combined with DDP were visualized with the help of SNAFL-GSH.In a mouse tumor xenograft model,we successfully employed SNAFL-GSH for the evaluation of the efficacy of erastin combined with DDP in the treatment of NPC.More importantly,the probe could image cancerous tissue sections from NPC patients with an imaging depth of approximately 80 μm.It was foreseen that SNAFL-GSH offered great potential for application in the diagnosis and evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy of NPC,and these results would also provide new ideas for the clinical treatment of NPC.

    查看更多>>摘要:Targeting delivery of tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen(TACA)-based vaccine to antigen-presenting cells(APCs)mediated by endogenous antibodies can improve the immunogenicity of TACA.However,an essential requirement of this approach is to generate high titers of endogenous antibodies in vivo through pre-immunization,which complicates the immunization procedure and may cause side effects.Herein,we report a new generation of APC-targeting TACA-based supramolecular complex vaccine,as-sembled by sialyl Thomsen-nouveau-bovine serum albumin-adamantine(sTn-BSA-Ada)and heptavalent rhamnose(Rha)-modified β-cyclodextrin(β-CD)via host-guest interaction.The complex vaccine re-tained anti-Rha antibodies recruiting capability and facilitated the APCs uptake of the vaccine via the interaction of the Fc-domain with the Fc receptors on APCs.We demonstrate that direct immuniza-tion of complex vaccine elicited anti-Rha and anti-sTn specific immune response synchronously,gen-erating a novel self-enhancement effect that can improve the antigen delivery to APCs in high efficacy.The structure-activity relationship(SAR)study proved that complex vaccine 4 with polyethylene glycol 6(PEG6)linker in host molecule provoked a robust and specific sTn immune response comparable to the pre-immunization approach.The antisera induced by complex vaccine,either through direct immuniza-tion or pre-immunization,exhibited equal potency of cytotoxicity against the sTn expression cancer cells.This study provides a general platform for TACA-based vaccines with self-enhancement effects without the need for pre-immunization.

    查看更多>>摘要:Small interfering RNA(siRNA)-based gene silencing has been considered as a potential therapy modality against inflammatory diseases.Nevertheless,the effective delivery of siRNA to desired destination still re-mains challenging due to poor stability,high molecular weight and negative charge.Currently,ionizable lipid nanoparticle(LNP)has been extensively used as vector for effective delivery of siRNA.Herein,we re-port a mannose-modified LNP(M-MC3 LNP@TNFα)loading tumor necrosis factor α(TNFα)siRNA for tar-geting liver macrophages,achieving effectively inhibit acute liver injury.The M-MC3 LNP@TNFα not only increases the internalization of LNP by macrophages,but also enhances the gene silencing efficiency of TNFα in vitro.Additionally,the M-MC3 LNP@TNFα exhibits higher accumulation in liver of healthy mice than that of MC3 LNP@TNFα(un-modified LNP)owing to the targeting effect of mannose.As expected,the M-MC3 LNP@TNFα significantly suppresses the expression of TNFα and ameliorates liver damage in acute liver injury model.Such a LNP targeting siRNA delivery holds great potential for the treatment of diseases associated with liver in the future.

    查看更多>>摘要:Remodeling tumor microenvironment(TME)is a very promising and effective strategy to enhance the effects of chemotherapy,photodynamic therapy,and immunotherapy.Normalization of tumor vasculature as well as depletion of glutathione(GSH)can improve the TME.Here,we developed a novel therapeutic nanoparticle functional enzyme ultra QDAU5 nanoparticles(FEUQ Nps)based on a fluorescence-on and releasable strategy by combining a vascular normalization inducer,a GSH depleting agent,and an acti-vated fluorophore.In which the cleavage of disulfide bonds releases active molecules that induce vascu-lar normalization and improve the hypoxic microenvironment.In addition,it may deplete GSH in cancer cells,thus inducing the production of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and lipid peroxide(LPO)and pro-moting iron toxicity.It may also lead to endoplasmic stress and release of calmodulin,which activates the immune system.Meanwhile,quenched fluorophores are turned on in the presence of galactosidase(GLU)for tumor-specific labeling.In summary,we developed novel therapeutic agent nanoparticles with the function of vascular normalization inducers to achieve specific labeling of hepatocellular carcinoma while exerting efficient antitumor effects in vivo.

    查看更多>>摘要:Paclitaxel(PTX)is widely applied for the treatment of unresectable and metastasis breast carcinoma as well as other cancers,whereas its efficacy is always impeded by poor solubility.Liposomes are one kind of the most successful drug carriers which are capable of solubilizing PTX and improving patients'tol-erance owing to excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability.However,poor compatibility between PTX and liposomes compromises the stability,drug loading and anti-tumor capacity of liposomal for-mulations.To address this issue,three lipids with various chain lengths,namely,myristic acid(MA,14C),palmitic acid(PA,16C)and stearic acid(SA,18C),were conjugated to PTX via ester bonds and the synthe-sized prodrugs with high lipophilicity were further formulated into liposomes,respectively.All liposomes show high stability and drug loadings,as well as sustained drug release.The chain lengths of lipids are negatively correlated with drug release and enzymatic conversion rates,which further impact the phar-macokinetics,tumor accumulation,and anti-tumor efficacy of liposomal PTX.Neither rapid nor slow drug release facilitates high tumor accumulation as well as anti-tumor efficacy of PTX.Among all liposomes,PTX-PA-loaded liposomes show the longest circulation and highest tumor accumulation of PTX and exert the most potent anti-tumor capacities in vivo,owing to its moderate drug release and enzymatic conver-sion rate.Witnessing its superior safety,PTX-PA liposomes hold potential for further clinical translation.

    查看更多>>摘要:Activated hepatic stellate cells(aHSCs),the main source of extracellular matrix deposition,are key targets in liver fibrosis.However,no effective drug specific to aHSCs has been clinically applied due to poor drug delivery efficiency.Herein,we designed a CXC chemokine receptor 4(CXCR4)-targeted reactive oxygen species(ROS)-responsive platform AMD-Dex-ROS-responsive-sorafenib(ARS)based on natural polysac-charide and thioctic acid frame,which can deliver anti-fibrosis drug represented by sorafenib specifically to aHSCs on account of CXCR4 over-expression on aHSCs,and smartly disassemble via ROS-responsive thioketal rupture relying on high intracellular ROS in HSCs,realized on-demand drug release and effec-tive liver fibrosis reversion.Notably,in this platform,the CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 not only enhanced aHSCs targeting efficiency of sorafenib but also effectively magnified the aHSCs elimination of sorafenib by blocking stroma cell derived factor-1(SDF-1)/CXCR4-induced aHSCs protection,resulting in synergis-tic anti-fibrosis effect.The platform provided a new approach for drug delivery system design and liver fibrosis treatment.
