Abstract
The clinical translation of tumor hypoxia intervention modalities still falls short of expectation, restricted by poor biocompatibility of oxygen-carrying materials, unsatisfactory oxygen loading performance, and abnormally high cellular oxygen consumption-caused insufficient hypoxia relief. Herein, a carrier-free oxygen nano-tank based on modular fluorination prodrug design and co-assembly nanotechnology is elaborately exploited, which is facilely fabricated through the molecular nanoassembly of a fluorinated prodrug (FSSP) of pyropheophorbide a (PPa) and an oxygen consumption inhibitor (atovaquone, ATO). The nano-tank adeptly achieves sufficient oxygen enrichment while simultaneously suppressing oxygen consumption within tumors for complete tumor hypoxia alleviation. Significant, the fluorination module in FSSP not only confers favorable co-assemblage of FSSP and ATO, but also empowers the nanoassembly to readily carry oxygen. As expected, it displays excellent oxygen carrying capacity, favorable pharmacokinetics, on-demand laser-triggerable ATO release, closed-loop tumor hypoxia relief, and significant enhancement to PPa-mediated PDT in vitro and in vivo. This study provides a novel nanotherapeutic paradigm for tumor hypoxia intervention-enhanced cancer therapy.

ROS-responsive core-shell nano-inhibitor impedes pyruvate metabolism for reinforced photodynamic therapy and interrupted pre-metastatic niche formation. Acta Biomater 2024; 182:288-300. [PMID: 38729547 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.05.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024]
Abstract
The formation of pre-metastatic niche (PMN) in a hospitable organ derived from the primary tumor requires the communication between the tumor cells and the host environment. Pyruvate is a fundamental nutrient by which the tumor cells metabolically reshape the extracellular matrix in the lung to facilitate their own metastatic development. Here we report a combination regimen by integrating the photo-sensitizer and the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) inhibitor in a dendritic polycarbonate core-hyaluronic acid shell nano-platform with multivalent reversible crosslinker embedded in it (DOH-NI+L) to reinforce photodynamic therapy (PDT) toward the primary tumor and interrupt PMN formation in the lung via impeding pyruvate uptake. We show that DOH-NI+L mediates tumor-specific MPC inhibitor liberation, inhibiting the aerobic respiration for facilitated PDT and restraining ATP generation for paralyzing cell invasion. Remarkably, DOH-NI+L is demonstrated to block the metabolic crosstalk of tumor cell-host environment by dampening pyruvate metabolism, provoking a series of metabolic responses and resulting in the pulmonary PMN interruption. Consequently, DOH-NI+L realizes a significant primary tumor inhibition and an efficient pulmonary metastasis prevention. Our research extends nano-based anti-metastatic strategies aiming at PMN intervention and such a dendritic core-shell nano-inhibitor provides an innovative paradigm to inhibit tumor growth and prevent metastasis efficiently. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In the progression of cancer metastasis, the formation of a pre-metastatic niche (PMN) in a hospitable organ derived from the primary tumor is one of the rate-limiting stages. The current nano-based anti-metastatic modalities mainly focus on targeted killing of tumor cells and specific inhibition of tumor cell invasion, while nanomedicine-mediated interruption of PMN formation has been rarely reported. Here we report a combination regimen by integrating a photo-sensitizer and an inhibitor of mitochondrial pyruvate carrier in a dendritic core-shell nano-platform with a reversible crosslinker embedded in it to reinforce PDT toward the primary tumor and interrupt PMN formation via impeding the uptake of pyruvate that is a fundamental nutrient facilitating aerobic respiration and PMN formation. Our research proposed a nano-based anti-metastatic strategy aiming at PMN intervention.

Abstract
Interfering with intratumoral metabolic processes is proven to effectively sensitize different antitumor treatments. Here, a tumor-targeting catalytic nanoplatform (CQ@MIL-GOX@PB) loading with autophagy inhibitor (chloroquine, CQ) and glucose oxidase (GOX) is fabricated to interfere with the metabolisms of tumor cells and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), then realizing effective antitumor chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Once accumulating in the tumor site with the navigation of external biotin, CQ@MIL-GOX@PB will release Fe ions and CQ in the acid lysosomes of tumor cells, the latter can sensitize Fe ions-involved antitumor CDT by blocking the autophagy-dependent cell repair. Meanwhile, the GOX component will consume glucose, which not only generates many H2O2 for CDT but also once again decelerates the tumor repair process by reducing energy metabolism. What is more, the release of CQ can also drive the NO anabolism of TAMs to further sensitize CDT. This strategy of multiple metabolic regulations is evidenced to significantly improve the antitumor effect of traditional CDT nanoagents and might provide a new sight to overcome the bottlenecks of different antitumor treatments.

Abstract
In oxygen (O2)-dependent photodynamic therapy (PDT), photosensitizers absorb light energy, which is then transferred to ambient O2 and subsequently generates cytotoxic singlet oxygen (1O2). Therefore, the availability of O2 and the utilization efficiency of generated 1O2 are two significant factors that influence the effectiveness of PDT. However, tumor microenvironments (TMEs) characterized by hypoxia and limited utilization efficiency of 1O2 resulting from its short half-life and short diffusion distance significantly restrict the applicability of PDT for hypoxic tumors. To address these challenges, numerous macromolecular nano-assemblies (MNAs) have been designed to relieve hypoxia, utilize hypoxia or enhance the utilization efficiency of 1O2. Herein, we provide a comprehensive review on recent advancements achieved with MNAs in enhancing the effectiveness of O2-dependent PDT against hypoxic tumors.

Abstract
Stimulator of the interferon genes (STING) pathway is appealing but challenging to potentiate the innate anti-tumor immunity. In this work, nuclear-targeted chimeric peptide nanorods (designated as PFPD) are constructed to amplify innate immunity through localized DNA damage and STING activation. Among which, the chimeric peptide (PpIX-FFVLKPKKKRKV) is fabricated with photosensitizer and nucleus targeting peptide sequence, which can self-assemble into nanorods and load STING agonist of DMXAA. The uniform nanosize distribution and good stability of PFPD improve the sequential targeting delivery of drugs towards tumor cells and nuclei. Under light irradiation, PFPD produce a large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to destroy nuclear DNA in situ, and the released cytosolic DNA fragment will efficiently activate innate anti-tumor immunity in combination with STING agonist. In vitro and in vivo results indicate the superior ability of PFPD to activate natural killer cells and T cells, thus efficiently eradicating lung metastatic tumor without inducing unwanted side effects. This work provides a sophisticated strategy for localized activation of innate immunity for systemic tumor treatment, which may inspire the rational design of nanomedicine for tumor precision therapy.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a cancer treatment strategy that utilizes photosensitizers to convert oxygen within tumors into reactive singlet oxygen (1O2) to lyse tumor cells. Nevertheless, pre-existing tumor hypoxia and oxygen consumption during PDT can lead to an insufficient oxygen supply, potentially reducing the photodynamic efficacy. In response to this issue, we have devised a pH-responsive amphiphilic triblock fluorinated polymer (PDP) using copper-mediated RDRP. This polymer, composed of poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate, 2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate, and (perfluorooctyl)ethyl acrylate, self-assembles in an aqueous environment. Oxygen, chlorine e6 (Ce6), and doxorubicin (DOX) can be codelivered efficiently by PDP. The incorporation of perfluorocarbon into the formulation enhances the oxygen-carrying capacity of PDP, consequently extending the lifetime of 1O2. This increased lifetime, in turn, amplifies the PDT effect and escalates the cellular cytotoxicity. Compared with PDT alone, PDP@Ce6-DOX-O2 NPs demonstrated significant inhibition of tumor growth. This study proposes a novel strategy for enhancing the efficacy of PDT.

Abstract
Ferroptosis therapy, which uses ferroptosis inducers to produce lethal lipid peroxides and induce tumor cell death, is considered a promising cancer treatment strategy. However, challenges remain regarding how to increase the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to enhance antitumor efficacy. In this study, a hyaluronic acid (HA) encapsulated hollow mesoporous manganese dioxide (H-MnO2 ) with double-shell nanostructure is designed to contain iron coordinated cyanine near-infrared dye IR783 (IR783-Fe) for synergistic ferroptosis photodynamic therapy against tumors. The nano photosensitizer IR783-Fe@MnO2 -HA, in which HA actively targets the CD44 receptor, subsequently dissociates and releases Fe3+ and IR783 in acidic TME. First, Fe3+ consumes glutathione to produce Fe2+ , which promotes the Fenton reaction in cells to produce hydroxyl free radicals (·OH) and induce ferroptosis of tumor cells. In addition, MnO2 catalyzes the production of O2 from H2 O2 and enhances the production of singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) by IR783 under laser irradiation, thus increasing the production and accumulation of ROS to provide photodynamic therapy. The highly biocompatible IR783-Fe@MnO2 -HA nano-photosensitizers have exhibited tumor-targeting ability and efficient tumor inhibition in vivo due to the synergistic effect of photodynamic and ferroptosis antitumor therapies.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has received increasing attention for tumor therapy due to its minimal invasiveness and spatiotemporal selectivity. However, the poor targeting of photosensitizer and hypoxia of the tumor microenvironment limit the PDT efficacy. Herein, eccentric hollow mesoporous organic silica nanoparticles (EHMONs) are prepared by anisotropic encapsulation and hydrothermal etching for constructing PDT nanoplatforms with targeting and hypoxia-alleviating properties. The prepared EHMONs possess a unique eccentric hollow structure, a uniform size (300 nm), a large cavity, and ordered mesoporous channels (2.3 nm). The EHMONs are modified with the mitochondria-targeting molecule triphenylphosphine (CTPP) and photosensitizers chlorin e6 (Ce6). Oxygen-carrying compound perfluorocarbons (PFCs) are further loaded in the internal cavity of EHMONs. Hemolytic assays and in vitro toxicity experiments show that the EHMONs-Ce6-CTPP possesses very good biocompatibility and can target mitochondria of triple-negative breast cancer, thus increasing the accumulation of photosensitizers Ce6 at mitochondria after entering cancer cells. The EHMONs-Ce6-CTPP@PFCs with oxygen-carrying ability can alleviate hypoxia after entering in the cancer cell. Phantom and cellular experiments show that the EHMONs-Ce6-CTPP@PFCs produce more singlet oxygen reactive oxygen species (ROSs). Thus, in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that the EHMONs-Ce6-CTPP@PFCs showed excellent treatment effects for triple-negative breast cancer. This research provides a new method for a targeting and oxygen-carrying nanoplatform for enhancing PDF effectiveness.

Abstract
Cancer with a complex pathological process is a major disease to human welfare. Due to the imbalance between oxygen (O2) supply and consumption, hypoxia is a natural characteristic of most solid tumors and an important obstacle for cancer therapy, which is closely related to tumor proliferation, metastasis, and invasion. Various strategies to exploit the feature of tumor hypoxia have been developed in the past decade, which can be used to alleviate tumor hypoxia, or utilize the hypoxia for targeted delivery and diagnostic imaging. The strategies to alleviate tumor hypoxia include delivering O2, in situ O2 generation, reprogramming the tumor vascular system, decreasing O2 consumption, and inhibiting HIF-1 related pathways. On the other side, hypoxia can also be utilized for hypoxia-responsive chemical construction and hypoxia-active prodrug-based strategies. Taking advantage of hypoxia in the tumor region, a number of methods have been applied to identify and keep track of changes in tumor hypoxia. Herein, we thoroughly review the recent progress of nanomedicine strategies in both conquering and utilizing hypoxia to combat cancer and put forward the prospect of emerging nanomaterials for future clinical transformation, which hopes to provide perspectives in nanomaterials design.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as an invasive and promising antitumour treatment, however, the hypoxia in deep tumour tissues and the poor water-solubility of photosensitizers as bottlenecks greatly hinder PDT efficiency. Herein, a tumour microenvironment (TME) activated supramolecular nanoplatform consisting of the pillar[5]arene-based amphiphilic polymer POPD, the phototherapeutic agent Cy7-CN, respiratory medication atovaquone (ATO) and chemotherapeutic drug pyridinyl camptothecin (CPT-Py) was constructed for imaging-guided hypoxia-ameliorated phototherapies. Owing to host-guest interaction, the photochemical and photophysical properties of cyanine were improved exceedingly due to the suppression of π-π stacking. Triggered by the acidic microenvironment in tumour sites, the supramolecular nanoplatform would dissociate and release CPT-Py and ATO which inhibits mitochondria-associated oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and encourages more oxygen to be used in enhanced PDT. In vitro and in vivo studies verified that the rational combination of ATO-enhanced PDT and PTT overcame the disadvantages of single phototherapy and formed mutual promotion, and simultaneously sensitized chemotherapeutic drugs, which resulted in high tumour inhibition. It is hoped that the supramolecular nanoplatform could shed light on the development of phototherapeutic agents.

Abstract
Hypoxia is a typical feature of most solid tumors and has important effects on tumor cells' proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. This is the key factor that leads to poor efficacy of different kinds of therapy including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, photodynamic therapy, etc. In recent years, the construction of hypoxia-relieving functional nanoplatforms through nanotechnology has become a new strategy to reverse the current situation of tumor microenvironment hypoxia and improve the effectiveness of tumor treatment. Here, the main strategies and recent progress in constructing nanoplatforms are focused on to directly carry oxygen, generate oxygen in situ, inhibit mitochondrial respiration, and enhance blood perfusion to alleviate tumor hypoxia. The advantages and disadvantages of these nanoplatforms are compared. Meanwhile, nanoplatforms based on organic and inorganic substances are also summarized and classified. Through the comprehensive overview, it is hoped that the summary of these nanoplatforms for alleviating hypoxia could provide new enlightenment and prospects for the construction of nanomaterials in this field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Doxorubicin (Dox) has been recommended in clinical guidelines for the standard-of-care treatment of breast cancer. However, Dox therapy faces challenges such as hypoxia, acidosis, H2O2-rich conditions and condensed extracellular matrix in TME as well as low targeted ability. METHODS We developed a nanosystem H-MnO2-Dox-Col NPs based on mesoporous manganese dioxide (H-MnO2) in which Dox was loaded in the core and collagenase (Col) was wrapped in the surface. Further the H-MnO2-Dox-Col NPs were covered by a fusion membrane (MP) of inflammation-targeted RAW264.7 cell membrane and pH-sensitive liposomes to form biomimetic MP@H-MnO2-Dox-Col for in vitro and in vivo study. RESULTS Our results shows that MP@H-MnO2-Dox-Col can increase the Dox effect with low cardiotoxicity based on multi-functions of effective penetration in tumor tissue, alleviating hypoxia in TME, pH sensitive drug release as well as targeted delivery of Dox. CONCLUSIONS This multifunctional biomimetic nanodelivery system exhibited antitumor efficacy in vivo and in vitro, thus having potential for the treatment of breast cancer.

Platelet membrane camouflaged AIEgen-mediated photodynamic therapy improves the effectiveness of anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy in large-burden tumors. Bioeng Transl Med 2023; 8:e10417. [PMID: 36925700 PMCID: PMC10013814 DOI: 10.1002/btm2.10417] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2022] [Revised: 07/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Although immunotherapy has achieved recent clinical success in antitumor therapy, it is less effective for solid tumors with large burdens. To overcome this challenge, herein, we report a new strategy based on platelet membrane-camouflaged aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogen (Plt-M@P) combined with the anti-programmed death ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1) for tumoral photodynamic-immunotherapy. Plt-M@P is prepared by using poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)/PF3-PPh3 complex as a nanocore, and then by co-extrusion with platelet membranes. PF3-PPh3 is an AIE-active conjugated polyelectrolyte with photosensitizing capability for photodynamic therapy (PDT). Plt-M@P exhibits superior tumor targeting capacity in vivo. When applied in small tumor-bearing (~40 mm3) mice, Plt-M@P-mediated PDT significantly inhibits tumor growth. In tumor models with large burdens (~200 mm3), using Plt-M@P-mediated PDT or anti-PD-L1 alone is less effective, but the combination of both is effective in inhibiting tumor growth. Importantly, this combination therapy has good biocompatibility, as demonstrated by the absence of damage to the major organs, especially the reproductive system. In conclusion, we show that Plt-M@P-mediated PDT can improve anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy by enhancing antitumor effects, providing a promising strategy for the treatment of tumors with large burdens.

Abstract
The cancer photodynamic therapy (PDT) is limited by a congenital defect, namely the tumor hypoxia. Cancer cells are characterized by the vigorous oxygen-consuming glycolysis, which is well-known as the "Warburg effect" and one of the primary causes for the hypoxia. Herein, we employed the glucose metabolism as the cancer-specific target to enhance the performance of PDT. The Salvianolic acid B as the inhibitor of glucose uptake and aerobic glycolysis was concomitantly delivered with the photosensitizer chlorin e6 by a redox-responsive organosilica cross-linked micelle. The results demonstrated that the Salvianolic acid B suppressed the glucose metabolism, retarded the oxygen consumption to retain adequate oxygen as the ammo for PDT, which remarkably improve the efficacy of PDT both in vitro and in vivo. Our study not only provides an alternative strategy to address the hypoxia problem for PDT, but also enhances the selectivity of the treatment by targeting the cancer-specific Warburg effect.

Abstract
The outcome of laser-triggered plasmons-induced phototherapy, including photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), is significantly limited by the hypoxic tumor microenvironment and the upregulation of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in response to heat stress. Mitochondria, the biological battery of cells, can serve as an important breakthrough to overcome these obstacles. Herein, dendritic triangular pyramidal plasmonic CuPt alloys loaded with heat-sensitive NO donor N, N'-di-sec-butyl-N, N'-dinitroso-1,4-phenylenediamine (BNN) is developed. Under 808 nm laser irradiation, plasmonic CuPt can generate superoxide anion free radicals (·O2 - ) and heat simultaneously. The heat generated can then trigger the release of NO gas, which not only enables gas therapy but also damages the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Impaired mitochondrial respiration leads to reduced oxygen consumption and insufficient intracellular ATP supply, which effectively alleviates tumor hypoxia and undermines the synthesis of HSPs, in turn boosting plasmonic CuPt-based PDT and mild PTT. Additionally, the generated NO and ·O2 - can react to form more cytotoxic peroxynitrite (ONOO- ). This work describes a plasmonic CuPt@BNN (CPB) triggered closed-loop NO gas, free radicals, and mild photothermal therapy strategy that is highly effective at reciprocally promoting antitumor outcomes.

Abstract
Safe and effective strategies are urgently needed to fight against the life-threatening diseases of various cancers. However, traditional therapeutic modalities, such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery, exhibit suboptimal efficacy for malignant tumors owing to the serious side effects, drug resistance and even relapse. Phototherapies, including photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), are emerging therapeutic strategies for localized tumor inhibition, which can produce a large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) or elevate the temperature to initiate cell death by non-invasive irradiation. In consideration of the poor bioavailability of phototherapy agents (PTAs), lots of drug delivery systems have been developed to enhance the tumor targeted delivery. Nevertheless, the carriers of drug delivery systems inevitably bring biosafety concerns on account of their metabolism, degradation, and accumulation. Of note, carrier-free nanomedicine attracts great attention for clinical translation with synergistic antitumor effect, which is characterized by high drug loading, simplified synthetic method and good biocompatibility. In this review, the latest advances of phototherapy with various carrier-free nanomedicines are summarized, which may provide a new paradigm for the future development of nanomedicine and tumor precision therapy.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is applied as a robust therapeutic option for tumor, which exhibits some advantages of unique selectivity and irreversible damage to tumor cells. Among which, photosensitizer (PS), appropriate laser irradiation and oxygen (O2) are three essential components for PDT, but the hypoxic tumor microenvironment (TME) restricts the O2 supply in tumor tissues. Even worse, tumor metastasis and drug resistance frequently happen under hypoxic condition, which further deteriorate the antitumor effect of PDT. To enhance the PDT efficiency, critical attention has been received by relieving tumor hypoxia, and innovative strategies on this topic continue to emerge. Traditionally, the O2 supplement strategy is considered as a direct and effective strategy to relieve TME, whereas it is confronted with great challenges for continuous O2 supply. Recently, O2-independent PDT provides a brand new strategy to enhance the antitumor efficiency, which can avoid the influence of TME. In addition, PDT can synergize with other antitumor strategies, such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, photothermal therapy (PTT) and starvation therapy, to remedy the inadequate PDT effect under hypoxia conditions. In this paper, we summarized the latest progresses in the development of innovative strategies to improve PDT efficacy against hypoxic tumor, which were classified into O2-dependent PDT, O2-independent PDT and synergistic therapy. Furthermore, the advantages and deficiencies of various strategies were also discussed to envisage the prospects and challenges in future study.

Abstract
A triphenylphosphine coordinated Cu(I) complex of Fc-OD-Cu was rationally designed for chemodynamic therapy (CDT) of cancer. The complex was capable of generating a highly toxic hydroxyl radical (˙OH) via a Fenton-like reaction induced by Cu(I) moieties and simultaneously mediated by ferrocene moieties. As a result, the CDT efficiency of Fc-OD-Cu is higher than that of Ba-OD-Cu (without ferrocene moieties) and Fc-OD (without Cu(I) moieties).

Photodiagnosis Photodyn Ther 2022; 40:103056. [PMID: 35944845 DOI: 10.1016/j.pdpdt.2022.103056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2022] [Revised: 07/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glioblastoma (GBM) is a high-grade, poor prognosis tumor that is resistant to standard treatment. The presence of a small number of glioma stem cells (GSCs) surviving in the harsh microenvironment is responsible for their refractoriness. This study aimed to investigate the effect of a hypoxic environment on the sensitivity of GSCs to photodynamic therapy with 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA-PDT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Six human GSC lines, Mesenchymal types HGG13, HGG30, HGG1123, and Proneural types HGG146, HGG157, HGG528, were divided into two groups: normoxia (O2 21%)-cultured cells (Normoxia-GSCs), and hypoxia (O2 5%)-cultured cells (Hypoxia-GSCs). To compare the effects of different oxygen partial pressures on photoporphyrin Ⅸ (PpⅨ) biosynthetic activity, PpⅨ biosynthetic enzyme and transporter expression levels were examined by qRT-PCR; the intracellular PpⅨ concentration was determined using flow cytometry. Additionally, the sensitivity of these two groups of cells to ALA-PDT was evaluated in vitro. RESULTS Hypoxia-GSCs showed higher mRNA levels of FECH (ferrochelatase), which is required for iron synthesis to convert PpⅨ to heme, compared with Normoxia-GSCs. Flow cytometry revealed that the accumulation of PpⅨ in Hypoxia-GSCs reduced upon incubation with ALA. However, Hypoxia-GSCs showed less reduction in sensitivity to ALA-PDT than Normoxia-GSCs. CONCLUSION Hypoxia-GSCs had lower intracellular PpⅨ accumulation than Normoxia-GSCs due to increased gene expression of FECH, and that their sensitivity to ALA-PDT was reduced less, despite accumulating lower concentrations of PpⅨ. ALA-PDT is a potentially effective therapy for hypoxia-tolerant GSCs that exist in hypoxia at 5% oxygen concentration.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) holds great promise in tumor therapy due to high safety, efficacy, and specificity. However, the risk of increased metastasis in hypoxic tumors after oxygen-dependent PDT remains underestimated. Here, we propose a post-PDT oxygen supply (POS) strategy to reduce the risk of metastasis. Herein, biocompatible and tumor-targeting Ce6@BSA and PFC@BSA nanoparticles were constructed for PDT and POS in a 4T1-orthotropic breast cancer model. PDT with Ce6@BSA nanoparticles increased tumor metastasis via the HIF-1α signaling pathway, whereas POS significantly reduced the PDT-triggered metastasis by blocking this pathway. Furthermore, POS, with clinical protocols and an FDA-approved photosensitizer (hypericin), and oxygen inhalation reduced PDT-induced metastasis. Our study findings indicate that PDT may increase the risk of tumor metastasis and that POS may solve this problem. POS can reduce the metastasis resulting not only from PDT but also from other oxygen-dependent treatments such as radiotherapy and sonodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Currently, the role of the lysosome, endoplasmic reticulum, or dictyosome in the transcription and translation of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) is well revealed, but the role and function of mitochondria in the PD-L1 expression in tumors is still not fully researched, making it hard to offer a novel PD-L1 regulation strategy. In this research, it is newly revealed that mitochondria oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) depression can be used as an effective PD-L1 down-regulation method. To offer an ideal and high-effective tumor mitochondria-targeted OXPHOS depression nanosystem, IR-LND is prepared by conjugating mitochondria-targeted heptamethine cyanine dye IR-68 with mitochondrial complexes I and II depression agent lonidamine (LND), which then further self-assembled with albumin (Alb) to form IR-LND@Alb nanoparticles. By doing this, PD-L1 expression in tumors is selectively and effectively depressed by IR-LND@Alb nanoparticles. As expected, the anti-tumor efficacy of such a PD-L1 depression strategy is superior to conventional anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies. Interestingly, IR-LND can also be served as a novel ideal promising photodynamic therapy (PDT) drug with self-oxygen and self-PD-L1 regulation capacity. All in all, this tumor-selective metabolic reprogramming platform to reactivate immunotherapy and sensitize for PDT effect, would open a new window for mitochondrial immunotherapy for cancer patients.

Abstract
Although photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising antitumor strategy for tumor treatment, the short half-life and the limited diffusion distance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) greatly hamper its antitumor efficacy. Moreover, tumor cells develop antioxidative microenvironments to weaken the oxidative damage caused by PDT. Herein, a plasma membrane-targeted photooxidant (designated as SCPP) is prepared by the self-assembly of a chimeric peptide (Pal-K(PpIX)-R4) and sorafenib. Plasma membrane-targeted SCPP could enhance lipid peroxidation (LPO) through in situ PDT upon light irradiation. Moreover, sorafenib-mediated chemotherapy could block cystine/glutamate antiporter xCT (SLC7A11) to inhibit the syntheses of intracellular GSH and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), which would destroy the antioxidant defense system of tumors. As a consequence, SCPP achieves a highly efficient tumor inhibition through enhanced PDT and ferroptosis therapy. This study might provide guidance for multisynergistic tumor therapy with a sophisticated mechanism under unfavorable conditions.

Abstract
The construction of organelle-targeting nanomaterials is an effective way to improve tumor imaging and treatment. Here, a new type of composite nanomaterial named as PTTPB is developed. PTTPB is composed of organelle-targeting aggregation-induced emission photosensitizer TTPB and polydopamine nanomaterials. With the functional modification of TTPB, PTTPB can recognize sialic acid on the cell membrane and present mitochondrial targeted capabilities. The intake of PTTPB in cancerous cells can be increased by the recognition process of cell membrane. PTTPB can generate singlet oxygen for photodynamic therapy (PDT), and present good photothermal conversion ability with irradiation. The PTTPB with organelle-targeting imaging-guided can realize the tumor ablation with the synergistic effect of PDT and photothermal therapy.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy has achieved promising clinical progress over the recent years for its potential to treat metastatic tumors and inhibit their recurrences effectively. However, low patient response rates and dose-limiting toxicity remain as major dilemmas for immunotherapy. Stimuli-responsive nanoparticles (srNPs) combined with immunotherapy offer the possibility to amplify anti-tumor immune responses, where the weak acidity, high concentration of glutathione, overexpressions of enzymes, and reactive oxygen species, and external stimuli in tumors act as triggers for controlled drug release. This review highlights the design of srNPs based on tumor microenvironment and/or external stimuli to combine with different anti-tumor drugs, especially the immunoregulatory agents, which eventually realize synergistic immunotherapy of malignant primary or metastatic tumors and acquire a long-term immune memory to prevent tumor recurrence. The authors hope that this review can provide theoretical guidance for the construction and clinical transformation of smart srNPs for controlled drug delivery in synergistic cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a treatment modality that uses light to target tumors and minimize damage to normal tissues. It offers advantages including high spatiotemporal selectivity, low side effects, and maximal preservation of tissue functions. However, the PDT efficiency is severely impeded by the hypoxic feature of tumors. Moreover, hypoxia may promote tumor metastasis and tumor resistance to multiple therapies. Therefore, addressing tumor hypoxia to improve PDT efficacy has been the focus of antitumor treatment, and research on this theme is continuously emerging. In this review, we summarize state-of-the-art advances in strategies for overcoming hypoxia in tumor PDTs, categorizing them into oxygen-independent phototherapy, oxygen-economizing PDT, and oxygen-supplementing PDT. Moreover, we highlight strategies possessing intriguing advantages such as exceedingly high PDT efficiency and high novelty, analyze the strengths and shortcomings of different methods, and envision the opportunities and challenges for future research.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has aroused great research interest in recent years owing to its high spatiotemporal selectivity, minimal invasiveness, and low systemic toxicity. However, due to the hypoxic nature characteristic of many solid tumors, PDT is frequently limited in therapeutic effect. Moreover, the consumption of O2 during PDT may further aggravate the tumor hypoxic condition, which promotes tumor proliferation, metastasis, and invasion resulting in poor prognosis of treatment. Therefore, numerous efforts have been made to increase the O2 content in tumor with the goal of enhancing PDT efficacy. Herein, these strategies developed in past decade are comprehensively reviewed to alleviate tumor hypoxia, including 1) delivering exogenous O2 to tumor directly, 2) generating O2 in situ, 3) reducing tumor cellular O2 consumption by inhibiting respiration, 4) regulating the TME, (e.g., normalizing tumor vasculature or disrupting tumor extracellular matrix), and 5) inhibiting the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) signaling pathway to relieve tumor hypoxia. Additionally, the O2 -independent Type-I PDT is also discussed as an alternative strategy. By reviewing recent progress, it is hoped that this review will provide innovative perspectives in new nanomaterials designed to combat hypoxia and avoid the associated limitation of PDT.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a noninvasive and effective local treatment for cancers that produces selective damage to target tissues and cells. However, PDT alone is unlikely to completely inhibit tumor metastasis and/or local tumor recurrence. RNA interference (RNAi) is a phenomenon of gene silencing mediated by exogenous or endogenous double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). RNAi has entered a golden period of development, with the approval of four treatments employing RNAi. PDT in combination with RNAi therapy to inhibit related targets has been a research hotspot, with better clinical outcomes than monotherapy. In this review, the progress of PDT and small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting different genes is discussed, while the achievements of the combined immunotherapy are reviewed.
