Abstract
An immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) with inadequate and exhausted tumor-infiltrating cytotoxic lymphocytes and abundant cellular immunosuppressors is the major obstacle responsible for the poor efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 (programmed cell death 1 and its ligand 1) immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Herein, a Janus silica nanoparticle (JSNP)-based immunomodulator is explored to reshape the TME for boosting the therapeutic outcomes of αPD-L1 therapy. The designed JSNP has two distinct domains, namely, an ultra pH-responsive side (UPS), which could encapsulate PI3Kγ inhibitor IPI549 in the pore structure, and a polycation-grafted intra-glutathione (GSH)-sensitive side (IGS), which could absorb CXCL9 cDNA on the surface. The final IPI549@UPS-IGS-PDMAEMA@CXCL9 cDNA (IUIPC) could release IPI549 in weak acid TME to target myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) to reverse negative immunoregulation and then release CXCL9 cDNA in tumor cells with abundant GSH for sustained CXCL9 chemokine expression and secretion to improve cytotoxic lymphocyte recruitment signals, thereby jointly restoring tumor sensitivity to PD-1/PD-L1 ICB therapy. As expected, the IUIPC-mediated TME remodeling during αPD-L1 therapy significantly ameliorated TME immunosuppression, as well as induced potent systemic antitumor immune responses, which ultimately achieved a robustly boosted antitumor efficacy proven by remarkable suppression of primary tumor growth, obvious prevention of tumor recurrence, and significant regression of abscopal tumors. Hence, the IUIPC-mediated TME-regulating strategy provides an enormous perspective for the improvement of PD-1/PD-L1 ICB therapy.

Acta Biomater 2022; 146:406-420. [PMID: 35470078 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.04.029] [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: 01/04/2022] [Revised: 04/02/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Despite huge potentials of NK cells in adoptive cell therapy (ACT), formidable physical barriers of the tumor tissue and deficiency of recognizing signals on tumor cells severely prevent NK cell infiltrating, activating and killing performances. Herein, a nano-immunomodulator AuNSP@αCD16 (CD16 antibody encoding plasmid) is explored to remodel the tumor microenvironment (TME) for improving the antitumor effects of adoptive NK cells. The as-prepared AuNSP, with a seaurchin-like gold core and a cationic polymer shell, exhibited a high gene transfection efficiency and a stable NIR-II photothermal capacity. The AuNSP could trigger mild photothermal intervention to partly destroy tumors and collapse the dense physical barriers, making a permeable TME for NK cell infiltration. What's more, the AuNSP could achieve αCD16 gene transfection to modify tumor surface with CD16 antibody, marking a unique structure on tumor cells for NK cell recognition and then lead to strong NK cell activation by CD16-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). As expected, the designed AuNSP@αCD16 induced an immune-favorable TME for NK cell performing killing functions against solid tumors, increasing the release of cytolytic granules and proinflammatory cytokines, which ultimately achieved a robustly boosted NK cell-based immunotherapy. Hence, the AuNSP@αCD16-mediated TME reconstituting strategy provides a substantial perspective for NK-based ACT on solid tumors. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In adoptive cell therapy (ACT), natural killer (NK) cells exhibit greater off-the-shelf utility and improved safety comparing with T cells, but the efficacy of NK cell therapy is severely compromised by formidable physical barriers of the tumor tissue and deficiency of NK cell recognizing signals on tumor cells. Herein, a nano-immunomodulator AuNSP@αCD16, with the abilities of inducing mild photothermal intervention and modifying the tumor cell surface with αCD16, is explored to reconstruct an infiltration-favorable and activation-facilitating tumor microenvironment for NK cells to perform killing functions. Such a simple and safe strategy is believed as a very promising candidate for future NK-based ACT.

Abstract
Ultrasound-activated therapies have been regarded as the efficient strategy for tumor treatment, among which sonosensitizer-enabled sonodynamic oxidative tumor therapy features intrinsic advantages as compared to other exogenous trigger-activated dynamic therapies. Nanomedicine-based nanosonosensitizer design has been extensively explored for improving the therapeutic efficacy of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) of tumor. This review focuses on solving two specific issues, i.e., precise and enhanced sonodynamic oxidative tumor treatment, by rationally designing and engineering multifunctional composite nanosonosensitizers. This multifunctional design can augment the therapeutic efficacy of SDT against tumor by either improving the production of reactive oxygen species or inducing the synergistic effect of SDT-based combinatorial therapies. Especially, this multifunctional design is also capable of endowing the nanosonosensitizer with bioimaging functionality, which can effectively guide and monitor the therapeutic procedure of the introduced sonodynamic oxidative tumor treatment. The design principles, underlying material chemistry for constructing multifunctional composite nanosonosensitizers, intrinsic synergistic mechanism, and bioimaging guided/monitored precise SDT are summarized and discussed in detail with the most representative paradigms. Finally, the existing critical issues, available challenges, and potential future developments of this research area are also discussed for promoting the further clinical translations of these multifunctional composite nanosonosensitizers in SDT-based tumor treatment.

Abstract
Background Photodynamic therapy (PDT), a typical reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent treatment with high controllability, has emerged as an alternative cancer therapy modality but its therapeutic efficacy is still unsatisfactory due to the limited light penetration and constant oxygen consumption. With the development of another ROS-dependent paradigm ferroptosis, several efforts have been made to conquer the poor efficacy by combining these two approaches; however the biocompatibility, tumor-targeting capacity and clinical translation prospect of current studies still exist great concerns. Herein, a novel hypoxia-responsive nanoreactor BCFe@SRF with sorafenib (SRF) loaded inside, constructed by covalently connecting chlorin e6 conjugated bovine serum albumin (BSA-Ce6) and ferritin through azobenzene (Azo) linker, were prepared to offer unmatched opportunities for high-efficient PDT and ferroptosis synergistic therapy. Results The designed BCFe@SRF exhibited appropriate size distribution, stable dispersity, excellent ROS generation property, controllable drug release capacity, tumor accumulation ability, and outstanding biocompatibility. Importantly, the BCFe@SRF could be degraded under hypoxia environment to release BSA-Ce6 for laser-triggered PDT, ferritin for iron-catalyzed Fenton reaction and SRF for tumor antioxidative defense disruption. Meanwhile, besides PDT effects, it was found that BCFe@SRF mediated treatment upon laser irradiation in hypoxic environment not only could accelerate lipid peroxidation (LPO) generation but also could deplete intracellular glutathione (GSH) and decrease glutathione peroxidase (GPX4) expression, which was believed as three symbolic events during ferroptosis. All in all, the BCFe@SRF nanoreactor, employing multiple cascaded pathways to promote intracellular ROS accumulation, presented remarkably outstanding antitumor effects both in vitro and in vivo. Conclusion BCFe@SRF could serve as a promising candidate for synergistic PDT and ferroptosis therapy, which is applicable to boost oxidative damage within tumor site and will be informative to future design of ROS-dependent therapeutic nanoplatforms.
