Dual-purposing disulfiram for enhanced chemotherapy and afterglow imaging using chlorin e6 and semiconducting polymer combined strategy. Theranostics 2024; 14:5141-5151. [PMID: 39267785 PMCID: PMC11388071 DOI: 10.7150/thno.96136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2024] [Accepted: 08/10/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Rationale: One of the main challenges in chemotherapy is achieving high treatment efficacy while minimizing adverse events. Fully exploiting the therapeutic potential of an old drug and monitoring its effects in vivo is highly valuable, but often difficult to achieve. Methods: In this study, by encapsulating disulfiram (DSF) approved by US Food and Drug Administration, semiconducting polymer nanocomplex (MEHPPV), and Chlorin e6 into a polymeric matrix F127 via nanoprecipitation method, a nanosystem (FCMC) was developed for afterglow imaging guided cancer treatment. The characteristics, stability as well as the ability of singlet oxygen (1O2) production of FCMC were first carefully examined. Then, we studied the mechanism for enhanced anti-cancer efficiency and afterglow luminescence in vitro. For experiments in vivo, 4T1 subcutaneous xenograft tumor mice were injected with FCMC via the tail vein every three days and the antitumor effect of FCMC was evaluated by monitoring tumor volume and body weight every three day. Results: The nanosystem, which combines DSF with Ce6, can generates abundant 1O2 that enhances the antitumor activity of DSF. The in vivo results show that FCMC-treated group exhibits an obviously higher tumor-growth inhibition rate of 67.89% after 15 days of treatment, compared to the control group of F127@MEHPPV-CuET. Moreover, Ce6 also greatly enhances the afterglow luminescence intensity of MEHPPV and promotes the redshift of the afterglow emission towards the ideal near-infrared imaging window, thereby enabling efficient afterglow tumor imaging in vivo. Conclusions: This multifunctional nanoplatform not only improves the anticancer efficacy of DSF, but also enables monitoring tumor via robust afterglow imaging, thus exhibiting great potential for cancer therapy and early therapeutic outcome prediction.

Abstract
Tendon injuries are common orthopedic ailments with a challenging healing trajectory, especially in cases like the Achilles tendon afflictions. The healing trajectory of tendon injuries is often suboptimal, leading to scar formation and functional impairment due to the inherent low metabolic activity and vascularization of tendon tissue. As pressing is needed for effective interventions, efforts are made to explore biomaterials to augment tendon healing. However, tissue engineering approaches face hurdles in optimizing tissue scaffolds and nanomedical strategies. To navigate these challenges, an injectable hydrogel amalgamated with human umbilical vein endothelial cells-derived exosomes (HUVECs-Exos) was prepared and named H-Exos-gel in this study, aiming to enhance tendon repair. In our research involving a model of Achilles tendon injuries in 60 rats, we investigated the efficacy of H-Exos-gel through histological assessments performed at 2 and 4 weeks and behavioral assessments conducted at the 4-week mark revealed its ability to enhance the Achilles tendon's mechanical strength, regulate inflammation and facilitate tendon regeneration and functional recovery. Mechanically, the H-Exos-gel modulated the cellular behaviors of macrophages and tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs) by inhibiting inflammation-related pathways and promoting proliferation-related pathways. Our findings delineate that the H-Exos-gel epitomizes a viable bioactive medium for tendon healing, heralding a promising avenue for the clinical amelioration of tendon injuries.

Abstract
Aim: To assess the chemo-immunomodulatory effects of doxorubicin-loaded cerium oxide nanoparticles coated with oleyl amine-linked cyclic RGDfK peptide (CeNP+Dox+RGD) to target both gliomas and its tumor microenvironment (TME) via integrin receptors. Materials & methods: CeNP+Dox+RGD nanoparticles are synthesized by the sequential addition of cerium III chloride heptahydrate, beta-cyclodextrin, oleic acid, and F127 micelle (CeNP). Doxorubicin was then loaded into CeNPs and coated with oleyl amine-linked cyclic RGDfK peptide to form stable CeNP+Dox+RGD nanoparticles. Results: CeNP+Dox+RGD nanoparticles crossed blood-brain barrier (BBB) effectively and demonstrated threefold enhanced survivability in glioma-bearing mice. The IHC profiling of glial tumor cross-sections showed increased CD80 expression (M1 TAMs) and decreased arginase-1 expression (M2 TAMs). Conclusion: CeNP+Dox+RGD can be an immunotherapeutic treatment option to combat glioblastoma.

Abstract
Fully mobilizing the activities of multiple immune cells is crucial to achieve the desired tumor immunotherapeutic efficacy yet still remains challenging. Herein, we report a nanomedicine formulation based on phosphorus dendrimer (termed AK128)/programmed cell death protein 1 antibody (aPD1) nanocomplexes (NCs) that are camouflaged with M1-type macrophage cell membranes (M1m) for enhanced immunotherapy of orthotopic glioma. The constructed AK128-aPD1@M1m NCs with a mean particle size of 160.3 nm possess good stability and cytocompatibility. By virtue of the decorated M1m having α4 and β1 integrins, the NCs are able to penetrate the blood-brain barrier to codeliver both AK128 with intrinsic immunomodulatory activity and aPD1 to the orthotopic glioma with prolonged blood circulation time. We show that the phosphorus dendrimer AK128 can boost natural killer (NK) cell proliferation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, while the delivered aPD1 enables immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) to restore the cytotoxic T cells and NK cells, thus promoting tumor cell apoptosis and simultaneously decreasing the tumor distribution of regulatory T cells vastly for improved glioma immunotherapy. The developed nanomedicine formulation with a simple composition achieves multiple modulations of immune cells by utilizing the immunomodulatory activity of nanocarrier and antibody-mediated ICB therapy, providing an effective strategy for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Doxorubicin is an effective chemotherapeutic agent, but its use is limited by acute and chronic cardiotoxicity. Exercise training has been shown to protect against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity, but the involvement of immune cells remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of exercise-derived B cells in protecting against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity and to further determine whether B cell activation and antibody secretion play a role in this protection. METHODS Mice that were administered with doxorubicin (5 mg/kg per week, 20 mg/kg cumulative dose) received treadmill running exercise. The adoptive transfer of exercise-derived splenic B cells to μMT-/- (B cell-deficient) mice was performed to elucidate the mechanism of B cell regulation that mediated the effect of exercise. RESULTS Doxorubicin-administered mice that had undergone exercise training showed improved cardiac function, and low levels of cardiac apoptosis, atrophy, and fibrosis, and had reduced cardiac antibody deposition and proinflammatory responses. Similarly, B cell pharmacological and genetic depletion alleviated doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity, which phenocopied the protection of exercise. In vitro performed coculture experiments confirmed that exercise-derived B cells reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis and fibroblast activation compared with control B cells. Importantly, the protective effect of exercise on B cells was confirmed by the adoptive transfer of splenic B cells from exercised donor mice to μMT-/- recipient mice. However, blockage of Fc gamma receptor IIB function using B cell transplants from exercised Fc gamma receptor IIB-/- mice abolished the protection of exercise-derived B cells against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Mechanistically, we found that Fc gamma receptor IIB, an important B cell inhibitory receptor, responded to exercise and increased B cell activation threshold, which participated in exercise-induced protection against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that exercise training protects against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by upregulating Fc gamma receptor IIB expression in B cells, which plays an important anti-inflammatory role and participates in the protective effect of exercise against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
Malignant tumors are still one of the most deadly diseases that threaten human life and health. However, developing new drugs is challenging due to lengthy trials, funding constraints, and regulatory approval procedures. Consequently, researchers have devoted themselves to transforming some clinically approved old drugs into antitumor drugs with certain active ingredients, which have become an attractive alternative. Disulfiram (DSF), an antialcohol medication, can rapidly metabolize in the physiological environment into diethyldithiocarbamate (DTC) which can readily react with Cu2+ ions in situ to form the highly toxic bis(N,N-diethyldithiocarbamate)-copper(II) (CuET) complex. In this study, DSF is loaded into mesoporous dopamine nanocarriers and surface-chelated with tannin and Cu2+ to construct M-MDTC nanoprodrugs under the camouflage of K7 tumor cell membranes. After intravenous injection, M-MDTC nanoprodrugs successfully reach the tumor sites with the help of mediated cell membranes. Under slightly acidic pH and photothermal stimulation conditions, DSF and Cu2+ are simultaneously released, forming a highly toxic CuET to kill tumor cells in situ. The generated CuET can also induce immunogenic cell death of tumor cells, increase the proportion of CD86+ CD80+ cells, and promote dendritic cell maturation. In vitro and in vivo studies of M-MDTC nanoprodrugs have shown excellent tumor-cell-killing ability and solid tumor suppression. This approach enables in situ amplification of chemotherapy in the tumor microenvironment, achieving an effective antitumor treatment.

Acta Biomater 2024; 174:358-371.

Abstract
The immune system's role in tumor growth and spread has led to the importance of activating immune function in tumor therapy. We present a strategy using an M1-type macrophage membrane-camouflaged ferrous-supply-regeneration nanoplatform (M1mDDTF) to synergistically reinforce immunogenic cell death (ICD) and transform tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) against tumors. The M1mDDTF nanoparticles consist of doxorubicin-loaded dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles chelated with FeIII-tannic acid (FeIIITA) and coated with M1-type macrophage membranes. In the acidic tumor microenvironment, FeIIITA releases Fe2+ and generates ·OH, aided by near infrared irradiation for enhanced doxorubicin release. Furthermore, the M1mDDTF nanoplatform not only directly kills tumor cells but stimulates ICD, which can increase the proportion of CD86+ CD80+ cells and promote dendritic cell maturation. Particularly, the M1mDDTF nanoplatform can also promote the gradual polarization of TAMs into the M1-type and promote tumor cell killing. This study demonstrates the safety and multifunctionality of M1mDDTF nanoparticles, highlighting their potential for clinical tumor treatment. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Malignant tumors are a global concern and a major cause of death. Nanoparticles' passive targeting is ineffective and hindered by reticuloendothelial system clearance. Therefore, enhancing nanoparticle accumulation in tumors while minimizing toxicity is a challenge. Coating nanoparticles with cell membranes enhances biocompatibility, immune evasion, and specific targeting. This approach has led to the development of numerous cell membrane-mimicking nanomaterials with remarkable properties and functions. This study developed an M1-type macrophage membrane-camouflaged ferrous-supply-regeneration nanoplatform, boosting immunogenic cell death and transforming tumor-associated macrophages. Tannic acid in the tumor microenvironment reduced Fe3+ to Fe2+, generating ·OH. M1mDDTF nanosystem induced M1-type macrophage polarization, inhibiting tumor growth and triggering immune cell death. Safe and versatile, these M1mDDTF nanoparticles hold promise for clinical tumor treatment.

Abstract
Nucleic acids have emerged as promising therapeutic agents for many diseases because of their potential in modulating gene expression. However, the delivery of nucleic acids remains a significant challenge in gene therapy. Although viral vectors have shown high transfection efficiency, concerns regarding teratogenicity or carcinogenicity have been raised. Non-viral vehicles, including cationic polymers, liposomes, and inorganic materials possess advantages in terms of safety, ease of preparation, and low cost. Nevertheless, they also face limitations related to immunogenicity, quick clearance in vivo, and lack of targeting specificity. On the other hand, bioinspired strategies have shown increasing potential in the field of drug delivery, yet there is a lack of comprehensive reviews summarizing the rapid development of bioinspired nanoparticles based on the cell membrane camouflage to construct the nucleic acids vehicles. Herein, we enumerated the current difficulties in nucleic acid delivery with various non-viral vehicles and provided an overview of bioinspired strategies for nucleic acid delivery.

Abstract
Tumor immunotherapy is a safe and effective strategy for precision medicine. However, immunotherapy for most cancer cases still ends in failure, with the root causes of the immunosuppressive and extraordinary heterogeneity of the solid tumors microenvironment. The emerging biomimetic nanodelivery system provides a promising tactic to improve the immunotherapy effect while reducing the adverse reactions on nontarget cells. Herein, we summarize the relationship between tumor occurrence and tumor immune microenvironment, mechanism of tumor immune escape, immunotherapy classification (including adoptive cellular therapy, cytokines, cancer vaccines, and immune checkpoint inhibitors) and recommend target cells for immunotherapy first, and then emphatically introduce the recent advances and applications of the latest biomimetic nanodelivery systems (e.g., immune cells, erythrocytes, tumor cells, platelets, bacteria) in tumor immunotherapy. Meanwhile, we separately summarize the application of tumor vaccines. Finally, the predictable challenges and perspectives in a forward exploration of biomimetic nanodelivery systems for tumor immunotherapy are also discussed.

Abstract
Melanoma, a highly aggressive skin tumor, exhibits notable features including heterogeneity, a high mutational load, and innate immune escape. Despite advancements in melanoma treatment, current immunotherapies fail to fully exploit the immune system's maximum potential. Activating immunogenic cell death (ICD) holds promise in enhancing tumor cell immunogenicity, stimulating immune amplification response, improving drug sensitivity, and eliminating tumors. Nanotechnology-enabled ICD has emerged as a compelling therapeutic strategy for augmenting cancer immunotherapy. Nanoparticles possess versatile attributes, such as prolonged blood circulation, stability, and tumor-targeting capabilities, rendering them ideal for drug delivery. In this review, we elucidate the mechanisms underlying ICD induction and associated therapeutic strategies. Additionally, we provide a concise overview of the immune stress response associated with ICD and explore the potential synergistic benefits of combining ICD induction methods with the utilization of nanocarriers.

Abstract
Micro-nano robots have emerged as a promising research field with vast potential applications in biomedicine. The motor is the key component of micro-nano robot research, and the design of the motor is crucial. Among the most commonly used motors are those derived from living cells such as bacteria with flagella, sperm, and algal cells. Additionally, scientists have developed numerous self-adaptive biomimetic motors with biological functions, primarily cell membrane functionalized micromotors. This novel type of motor exhibits remarkable performance in complex media. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the structure and performance of micro-nano robots that utilize living cells and functionalized biological cell membranes. We also discuss potential practical applications of these mirco-nano robots as well as potential challenges that may arise in future development.

Abstract
Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 2(PTPN2), an important member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase family, can regulate various signaling pathways and biological processes by dephosphorylating receptor protein tyrosine kinases. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that PTPN2 is involved in the occurrence and development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Recently, it has been reported that PTPN2 exerts an anti-atherosclerotic effect by regulating vascular endothelial injury, monocyte proliferation and migration, macrophage polarization, T cell polarization, autophagy, pyroptosis, and insulin resistance. In this review, we summarize the latest findings on the role of PTPN2 in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis to provide a rationale for better future research and therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy can significantly prevent tumor growth and metastasis by activating the autoimmune system without destroying normal cells. Although cancer immunotherapy has made some achievements in clinical cancer treatment, it is still restricted by systemic immunotoxicity, immune cell dysfunction, cancer heterogeneity, and the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (ITME). Biomimetic cell-derived nanoparticles are attracting considerable interest due to their better biocompatibility and lower immunogenicity. Moreover, biomimetic cell-derived nanoparticles can achieve different preferred biological effects due to their inherent abundant source cell-relevant functions. This review summarizes the latest developments in biomimetic cell-derived nanoparticles for cancer immunotherapy, discusses the applications of each biomimetic system in cancer immunotherapy, and analyzes the challenges for clinical transformation.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is emerging as a promising therapeutic approach for clinical treatment against various cancers. However, ICB based monotherapies still suffer from low immune response rate due to the limited and exhausted tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes as well as tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. In this work, the cell membrane with surface displaying PD-1 proteins (PD1-CM) was prepared for immune checkpoint blockade, which was further combined with multifunctional and biodegradable MnO2 for systematic and robust antitumor therapy. The MnO2-based gene-engineered nanocomposites can catalyze the decomposition of abundant H2O2 in TME to generate O2, which can promote the intratumoral infiltration of T cells, and thus improve the effect of immune checkpoint blockade by PD-1 proteins on PD1-CM. Furthermore, MnO2 in the nanocomposites can be completely degraded into Mn2+, which can catalyze the generation of highly toxic hydroxyl radicals for chemodynamic therapy, thereby further enhancing the therapeutic effect. In addition, the prepared nanocomposites possess the advantages of low cost, easy preparation and good biocompatibility, which are expected to become promising agents for combination immunotherapy.

Abstract
Biohybrid micro/nanorobots have demonstrated improved therapeutic outcomes for targeting and treating diseases in preclinical trials. However, in vivo applications remain challenging due to a lack of sufficient targeting. Based on evidence that immune cells play a role in the immune modulation in the tumor microenvironment, we developed M1 macrophage membrane-coated magnetic photothermal nanocomplexes (MPN) for photoacoustic (PA) imaging-guided tumor therapy. The MPN were able to inherit the protein from the original macrophage cells and exert a targeted immunosuppression role. Integrating black phosphorus quantum dots and DOX also greatly enhanced reactive oxygen species generation and chemo-phototherapy efficacy. The results suggest that the MPN can be employed as an excellent tumor immunotargeting nanorobotic platform for modulating the tumor microenvironment under PA imaging and magnetic guidance and, thus, exert synergistic therapeutic efficacies.

Abstract
Assessment of fetal maturity is essential for timely termination of pregnancy, especially in pregnant women with pregnancy complications. However, there is a lack of methods to assess the maturity of fetal intestinal function. Here, we constructed erythrocyte membrane-camouflaged aggregation-induced emission (AIE) nanoparticles. Nanocore is formed using a hollow mesoporous silicon nanobox (HMSN) of different particle sizes loaded with AIE luminogens -PyTPA (P), which are then co-extruded with erythrocyte membranes (M) to construct M@HMSN@P. The 100 nm M@HMSN@P has a more effective cellular uptake efficiency in vitro and in vivo. Swallowing and intestinal function in fetal mice mature with the increase in gestational age. After intrauterine injection of M@HMSN@P, they were swallowed and absorbed by fetal mice, and their swallowed and absorbed amount was positively correlated with the gestational age with a correlation coefficient of 0.9625. Using the M@HMSN@P (fluorescence intensity) in fetal mice, the gestational age can be imputed, and the difference between this imputed gestational age and the actual gestational age is less than 1 day. Importantly, M@HMSN@P has no side effect on the health status of pregnant and fetal mice, showing good biocompatibility. In conclusion, we constructed M@HMSN@P nanoparticles with different particle sizes and confirmed that the smaller size M@HMSN@P has more efficient absorption efficiency and it can assess fetal intestinal maturity by the intensity of the fluorescence signal.
