Abstract
Second near-infrared(NIR-Ⅱ)light triggered in-situ tumor vaccination(ISTV)represents one of the most promising strategies in boosting the whole-body antitumor immunity.While most of previously devel-oped nano-adjuvants for NIR-Ⅱ-triggered ISTV are"all-in-one"formulations,which may indiscriminately damage both the tumor cells and the immune cells,limiting the overall effect of immune response.To overcome this obstacle,we designed a"cocktail"nano-adjuvant by physically mixing hyaluronidases(HAase)-decorated gold nanostars(HA)for NIR-Ⅱ light triggered in situ production of tumor-associated antigens and CpG functionalized gold nanospheres(CA)for immune cells activation.Compared to"all-in-one"formulation,the"cocktail"nano-adjuvants displayed a significantly stronger immune response on NIR-Ⅱ light induced dendritic cells(DCs)mutation and T cells differentiation,greater effect on tumor-growth inhibition,and higher efficacy in inhibition of pulmonary metastases.What is more,increasing the molar ratio of HA to CA led to an enhanced anticancer immune responses.This study highlight the nano-adjuvant formulation effects on the treatment of tumors with multiple targets.
