Non-coding RNA-directed therapeutics in lung cancer: Delivery technologies and clinical applications. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 229:113466. [PMID: 37515959 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113466] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/16/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2023]
Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most aggressive and deadliest health threats. There has been an increasing interest in non-coding RNA (ncRNA) recently, especially in the areas of carcinogenesis and tumour progression. However, ncRNA-directed therapies are still encountering obstacles on their way to the clinic. In the present article, we provide an overview on the potential of targeting ncRNA in the treatment of lung cancer. Then, we discuss the delivery challenges and recent approaches enabling the delivery of ncRNA-directed therapies to the lung cancer cells, where we illuminate some advanced technologies including chemically-modified oligonucleotides, nuclear targeting, and three-dimensional in vitro models. Furthermore, advanced non-viral delivery systems recruiting nanoparticles, biomimetic delivery systems, and extracellular vesicles are also highlighted. Lastly, the challenges limiting the clinical trials on the therapeutic targeting of ncRNAs in lung cancer and future directions to tackle them are explored.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lung cancer is one of the cancer types with the highest mortality rate, exploring a more effective treatment modality that improves therapeutic efficacy while mitigating side effects is now an urgent requirement. Designing multifunctional nanoparticles can be used to overcome the limitations of drugs and conventional drug delivery systems. Nanotechnology has been widely researched, and through different needs, suitable nanocarriers can be selected to load anti-cancer drugs to improve the therapeutic effect. It is foreseeable that with the rapid development of nanotechnology, more and more lung cancer patients will benefit from nanotechnology. This paper reviews the merits of various multifunctional nanoparticles in the treatment of lung cancer to provide novel ideas for lung cancer treatment. AREAS COVERED This review focuses on summarizing various nanoparticles for targeted lung cancer therapy and their advantages and disadvantages, using nanoparticles loaded with anti-cancer drugs, delivered to lung cancer sites, enhancing drug half-life, improving anti-cancer drug efficacy and reducing side effects. EXPERT OPINION The delivery mode of nanoparticles with superior pharmacokinetic properties in the in vivo circulation enhances the half-life of the drug, and provides tissue-targeted selectivity and the ability to overcome biological barriers, bringing a revolution in the field of oncology.

Abstract
Despite immunotherapy emerging as a vital approach to improve cancer treatment, the activation of efficient immune responses is still hampered by immunosuppression, especially due to the low tumor immunogenicity. Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a promising strategy to reshape the tumor microenvironment (TME) for achieving high immunogenicity. Various stimuli are able to effectively initiate their specific ICD by utilizing the corresponding ICD-inducer. However, the ICD-guided antitumor immune effects are usually impaired by various biological barriers and TME-associated immune resistance. Biomimetic active materials are being extensively explored as guided agents for ICD due to their unique advantages. In this review, two major strategies are systematically introduced that have been employed to exploit biomimetic active materials guided ICD for cancer immunotherapy, mainly including naive organism-derived nanoagents and engineered bioactive platforms. This review outlines the recent advances in the field at biomimetic active materials guided physiotherapy, chemotherapy, and biotherapy for ICD induction. The advances and challenges of biomimetic active materials guided ICD for cancer immunotherapy applications are further discussed in future clinical practice. This review provides an overview of the advances of biomimetic active materials for targeting immunoregulation and treatment and can contribute to the future of advanced antitumor combination therapy.
