Antibacterial tellurium-containing polycarbonate drug carriers to eliminate intratumor bacteria for synergetic chemotherapy against colorectal cancer. Acta Biomater 2024:S1742-7061(24)00356-8. [PMID: 38964527 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.06.042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Revised: 06/23/2024] [Accepted: 06/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
Intratumor microbes have attracted great attention in cancer research due to its influence on the tumorigenesis, progression and metastasis of cancer. However, the therapeutic strategies targeting intratumoral microbes are still in their infancy. Specific microorganisms, such as Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum), are abundant in various cancer and always result in the CRC progression and chemotherapy resistance. Here, a combined anticancer and antibacterial therapeutic strategy is proposed to deliver antitumor drug to the tumors containing intratumor microbiota by the antibacerial polymeric drug carriers. We construct oral tellurium-containing drug carriers using a complex of tellurium-containing polycarbonate with cisplatin (PTE@CDDP). The results show that the particle size of the prepared nanoparticles could be maintained at about 105 nm in the digestive system environment, which is in line with the optimal particle size of oral nanomedicine. In vitro mechanism study indicates that the tellurium-containing polymers are highly effective in killing F.nucleatum through a membrane disruption mechanism. The pharmacokinetic experiments confirmed that PTE@CDDP has the potential function of enhancing the oral bioavailability of cisplatin. Both in vitro and in vivo studies show that PTE@CDDP could inhibit intratumor F.nucleatum and lead to a reduction in cell proliferation and inflammation in the tumor site. Together, the study identifies that the CDDP-loaded tellurium-containing nanoparticles have great potential for treating the F.nucleatum-promoted colorectal cancer (CRC) by combining intratumor microbiota modulation and chemotherapy. The synergistic therapeutic strategy provide new insight into treating various cancers combined with bacterial infection. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The synthesized antibacterial polymer was first employed to remodel the intratumor microbes in tumor microenvironment (TME). Moreover, it was the first report of tellurium-containing polymers against F.nucleatum and employed for treatment of the CRC. A convenient oral dosage form of cisplatin (CDDP)-loaded tellurium-containing nanoparticles (PTE@CDDP) was adopted here, and the synergistic antibacterial/chemotherapy effect occurred. The PTE@CDDP could quickly and completely eliminate F.nucleatum in a safe dose. In the CRC model, PTE@CDDP effectively reversed the inflammation level and even restored the intestinal barrier damaged by F.nucleatum. The ultrasensitive ROS-responsiveness of PTE@CDDP triggered the fast oxidation and efficient drug release of CDDP and thus a highly efficient apoptosis of the tumors. Therefore, the tellurium-containing polymers are expected to serve as novel antibacterial agents in vivo and have great potential in the F.nucleatum-associated cancers. The achievements provided new insight into treating CRC and other cancers combined with bacterial infection.

Abstract
Based on the obtained SARs, further structural optimisation of compound BC2021-104511-15i was conducted in this investigation, and totally ten novel quinoline derivates were designed, synthesised and optimised for biological activity. Among them, compound 10a displayed significant in vitro anticancer activity against COLO 205 cells with an IC50 value of 0.11 μM which was over 90-fold more potent than that of Regorafenib (IC50>10.0 μM) and Fruquintinib (IC50>10.0 μM). Furthermore, compound 10a exhibited over 90-fold selectivity towards COLO 205 relative to human normal colorectal mucosa epithelial cell FHC cells. Flow cytometry study demonstrated that compound 10a could induce apoptosis in COLO 205 cells, however, it could not induce cell cycle arrest in COLO 205 cells. The results of preliminary kinase profile study showed that compound 10a was a potential HGFR and MST1R dual inhibitor, with IC50 values of 0.11 μM and 0.045 μM, respectively.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the deadliest cancers in the world, the incidences and morality rate are rising and poses an important threat to the public health. It is known that multiple drug resistance (MDR) is one of the major obstacles in CRC treatment. Tumor microenvironment plus genomic instability, tumor derived exosomes (TDE), cancer stem cells (CSCs), circulating tumor cells (CTCs), cell-free DNA (cfDNA), as well as cellular signaling pathways are important issues regarding resistance. Since non-targeted therapy causes toxicity, diverse side effects, and undesired efficacy, targeted therapy with contribution of various carriers has been developed to address the mentioned shortcomings. In this paper the underlying causes of MDR and then various targeting strategies including exosomes, liposomes, hydrogels, cell-based carriers and theranostics which are utilized to overcome therapeutic resistance will be described. We also discuss implication of emerging approaches involving single cell approaches and computer-aided drug delivery with high potential for meeting CRC medical needs.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide. The diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic monitoring of CRC depends largely on tissue biopsy. However, due to tumor heterogeneity and limitations such as invasiveness, high cost and limited applicability in longitudinal monitoring, liquid biopsy has gathered immense attention in CRC. Liquid biopsy has several advantages over tissue biopsy including ease of sampling, effective monitoring, and longitudinal assessment of treatment dynamics. Furthermore, the importance of liquid biopsy is signified by approval of several liquid biopsy assays by regulatory bodies indicating the powerful approach of liquid biopsy for comprehensive CRC screening, diagnostic and prognostics. Several liquid biopsy biomarkers such as novel components of the microbiome, non-coding RNAs, extracellular vesicles and circulating tumor DNA are extensively being researched for their role in CRC management. Majority of these components have shown promising results on their clinical application in CRC including early detection, observe tumor heterogeneity for treatment and response, prediction of metastases and relapse and detection of minimal residual disease. Therefore, in this review, we aim to provide updated information on various novel liquid biopsy markers such as a) oral microbiota related bacterial network b) gut microbiome-associated serum metabolites c) PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), microRNA(miRNAs), Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), circular RNAs (circRNAs) and d) circulating tumor DNAs (ctDNA) and circulating tumor cells (CTC) for their role in disease diagnosis, prognosis, treatment monitoring and their applicability for personalized management of CRC.

Abstract
Among the malignant tumors in the central nervous system (CNS), glioma is the most challenging tumor to the public society, which accounts for the majority of intracranial malignant tumors with impaired brain function. In general, conventional therapies are still unable to provide an effective cure. However, novel immunotherapies have changed the treatment scene giving patients a greater potential to attain long term survival, improved quality of life. Having shown favorable results in solid tumors, those therapies are now at a cancer research hotspot, which could even shrink the growth of glioma cells without causing severe complications. However, it is important to recognize that the therapy may be occasionally associated with noteworthy adverse action called immune-related adverse events (IRAEs) which have emerged as a potential limitation of the therapy. Multiple classes of mediators have been developed to enhance the ability of immune system to target malignant tumors including glioma but may also be associated with the IRAEs. In addition, it is probable that it would take long time after the therapy to exhibit severe immune-related disorders. Gut microbiota could play an integral role in optimal immune development and/or appropriate function for the cancer therapy, which is a vital component of the multidirectional communication between immune system, brain, and gut, also known as gut-brain-immune axis. Here, we show the potential effects of the gut-brain-immune axis based on an "engram theory" for the innovative treatment of IRAEs.

Abstract
Background Few data regarding post-induction management following first-line anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-based doublet regimens in patients with left-sided RAS/BRAF wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) are available. Methods This multicenter, retrospective study aimed at evaluating clinicians’ attitude, and the safety and effectiveness of post-induction strategies in consecutive patients affected by left-sided RAS/BRAF wild-type mCRC treated with doublet chemotherapy plus anti-EGFR as first-line regimen, who did not experience disease progression within 6 months from induction initiation, at 21 Italian and 1 Spanish Institutions. The measured clinical outcomes were: progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), adverse events, and objective response rate (ORR). Results At the data cutoff, among 686 consecutive patients with left-sided RAS/BRAF wild-type mCRC treated with doublet plus anti-EGFR as first-line regimen from March 2012 to October 2020, 355 eligible patients have been included in the present analysis. Among these, 118 (33.2%), 66 (18.6%), and 11 (3.1%) received a maintenance with 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (5FU/LV)+anti-EGFR, anti-EGFR, and 5FU/LV, respectively, while 160 (45.1%) patients continued induction treatment (non-maintenance) until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, patient decision, or completion of planned treatment. The median period of follow-up for the overall population was 33.7 months (95%CI = 28.9–35.6). The median PFS values of the 5FU/LV+anti-EGFR, anti-EGFR, 5FU/LV, and non-maintenance cohorts were 16.0 (95%CI = 14.3–17.7, 86 events), 13.0 (95%CI = 11.4–14.5, 56 events), 14.0 (95%CI = 8.1–20.0, 8 events), and 10.1 months (95%CI = 9.0–11.2, 136 events), respectively (p < 0.001). The median OS values were 39.6 (95%CI = 31.5–47.7, 43 events), 36.1 (95%CI = 31.6–40.7, 36 events), 39.5 (95%CI = 28.2–50.8, 4 events), and 25.1 months (95%CI = 22.6–27.6, 99 events), respectively (p < 0.001). After adjusting for key covariates, a statistically significant improvement in PFS in favor of 5FU/LV+anti-EGFR (HR = 0.59, 95%CI = 0.44–0.77, p < 0.001) and anti-EGFR (HR = 0.71, 95%CI = 0.51–0.98, p = 0.039) compared to the non-maintenance cohort was found. Compared to the non-maintenance cohort, OS was improved by 5FU/LV+anti-EGFR (HR = 0.55, 95%CI = 0.38–0.81, p = 0.002) and, with marginal significance, by anti-EGFR (HR = 0.67, 95%CI = 0.51–0.98, p = 0.051). No difference was found in ORR. Any grade non-hematological and hematological events were generally higher in the non-maintenance compared to the maintenance cohorts. Conclusion Among the treatment strategies following an anti-EGFR-based doublet first-line induction regimen in patients affected by left-sided RAS/BRAF wild-type mCRC treated in a “real-life” setting, 5FU/LV+anti-EGFR resulted the most adopted, effective, and relatively safe regimen.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignant tumor of the gastrointestinal tract with nonobvious early symptoms and late symptoms of anemia, weight loss, and other systemic symptoms. Its morbidity and fatality rate are next only to gastric cancer, esophageal cancer, and primary liver cancer among digestive malignancies. In addition to the conventional surgical intervention, other therapies such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy and new treatment methods such as biologics and microbiological products have been introduced. As a promising cell therapy, mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) has attracted extensive research attention. MSCs are early undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells, which have the common features of stem cells, including self-replication, self-division, self-renewal, and multidirectional differentiation. MSCs come from a wide range of sources and can be extracted from a variety of tissues such as the bone marrow, umbilical cord, and fat. Current studies have shown that MSCs have a variety of biological functions such as immune regulation, tissue damage repair, and therapeutic effects on tumors such as CRC. This review outlines the overview of MSCs and CRC and summarizes the role of MSC application in CRC.
