Abstract
Nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) offer high biocompatibility, nanomaterial permeability, substantial specific surface area, and well-defined pores. These properties make MOFs valuable in biomedical applications, including biological targeting and drug delivery. They also play a critical role in tumor diagnosis and treatment, including tumor cell targeting, identification, imaging, and therapeutic methods such as drug delivery, photothermal effects, photodynamic therapy, and immunogenic cell death. The diversity of MOFs with different metal centers, organics, and surface modifications underscores their multifaceted contributions to tumor research and treatment. This review is a summary of these roles and mechanisms. The final section of this review summarizes the current state of the field and discusses prospects that may bring MOFs closer to pharmaceutical applications.

Bai Z, Huang J, Lu H, Wang N, Li H, Zhu Y. Based on polydopamine-coated metal organic framework multifunctional nanoplatform for enhanced photothermal/sonodynamicand treatment combined with checkpoint blockade therapy. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:132207. [PMID: 38723823 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132207] [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: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024]
Abstract
To overcome the low efficacy of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) caused by hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment, we developed a multiple anti-tumor nanoplatform with synergistic SDT, photothermal therapy (PTT), and ferroptosis effects. PCN-224@FcCaO2/Mn/dihydroartemisinin/imiquimod/PDA (PFC) was prepared by modified with dihydroartemisinin (DHA), imiquimod (R837), CaO2, ferrocene (Fc) and Mn2+ on the PCN-224 (Cu) to achieve self-replenishment of H2O2/O2 and GSH consumption. FcCaO2 decomposed into H2O2 in the tumor microenvironment, triggering the Fenton effect to produce OH, and Cu2+ reduced the potential loss of OH by the depletion of GSH. Under ultrasonic (US) and laser irradiation, PFC exhibits exciting PTT and SDT effects from polydopamine (PDA) and PCN-224. Mn2+ not only promoted the reaction of H2O2 to produce O2 to effectively enhance SDT but also induced tumor cell apoptosis by Mn2+ combined with DHA. PFC induced ferroptosis via Fe interaction with DHA to produce ROS and reduce the expression of GPX4. The released R837 and tumor-associated antigens from SDT/PTT can produce damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which can initiate adaptive immune responses to kill cancer cells, and released again to promote the tumor immune cycle. What's more, SDT/PTT and ferroptosis combined with aPD-L1 can effectively suppress both primary and distant tumor growth.

Abstract
Non-invasive cancer therapies, especially those based on reactive oxygen species, including photodynamic therapy (PDT), have gained much interest. As emerging photodynamic nanocarriers, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on porphyrin can release reactive oxygen species (ROS) to destroy cancer cells. However, due to the inefficient production of ROS by photosensitizers and the over-expression of glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME), their therapeutic effect is not satisfactory. Therefore, herein, we developed a multi-functional nanoparticle, HN@Cu-MOF, to enhance the efficacy of PDT. We combined chemical dynamic therapy (CDT) and nitric oxide (NO) therapy by initiating sensitization to PDT and cell apoptosis in the treatment of tumors. The Cu2+-doped MOF reacted with GSH to form Cu+, exhibiting a strong CDT ability to generate hydroxyl radicals (˙OH). The Cu-MOF was coated with HN, which is hyaluronic acid (HA) modified by a nitric oxide donor. HN can target tumor cells over-expressing the CD44 receptor and consume GSH in the cells to release NO. Both cell experiments and in vivo experiments showed an excellent tumor inhibitory effect upon the treatment. Overall, the HN@Cu-MOF nanoparticle-integrated NO gas therapy and CDT with PDT led to a significant enhancement in GSH consumption and a remarkable elevation in ROS production.

A pH-responsive bi-MIL-88B MOF coated with folic acid-conjugated chitosan as a promising nanocarrier for targeted drug delivery of 5-Fluorouracil. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1265440. [PMID: 37745070 PMCID: PMC10517339 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1265440] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Cancer has remained one of the leading causes of death worldwide, with a lack of effective treatment. The intrinsic shortcomings of conventional therapeutics regarding tumor specificity and non-specific toxicity prompt us to look for alternative therapeutics to mitigate these limitations. In this regard, we developed multifunctional bimetallic (FeCo) bi-MIL-88B-FC MOFs modified with folic acid-conjugated chitosan (FC) as drug delivery systems (DDS) for targeted delivery of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU). The bi-MIL-88B nanocarriers were characterized through various techniques, including powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray, thermogravimetric analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Interestingly, 5-FU@bi-MIL-88B-FC showed slower release of 5-FU due to a gated effect phenomenon endowed by FC surface coating compared to un-modified 5-FU@bi-MIL-88B. The pH-responsive drug release was observed, with 58% of the loaded 5-FU released in cancer cells mimicking pH (5.2) compared to only 24.9% released under physiological pH (5.4). The in vitro cytotoxicity and cellular internalization experiments revealed the superiority of 5-FU@bi-MIL-88B-FC as a highly potent targeted DDS against folate receptor (FR) positive SW480 cancer cells. Moreover, due to the presence of Fe and Co in the structure, bi-MIL-88B exhibited peroxidase-like activity for chemodynamic therapy. Based on the results, 5-FU@bi-MIL-88B-FC could serve as promising candidate for smart DDS by sustained drug release and selective targeting.
