Cuproptosis, a copper-dependent cell death process, has been confirmed to further activate the immune response and mediate resistance. However, hypoxic tumor microenvironment hampers cuproptosis sensitivity suppresses body's antitumor response. Herein, we have successfully immobilized functionalized catalase (CAT) with long single-stranded DNA containing polyvalent CpG sequences through rolling circle amplification (RCA) techniques, obtaining an enzyme-cored spherical nucleic acid nanoplatform (CAT-ecSNA-Cu) deliver copper ions for cuproptosis. The presence of long-stranded DNA-protected CAT enhances mitochondrial respiration by catalyzing conversion H2O2 O2, thereby sensitizing Meanwhile, increased oxygenation expression hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) protein, resulting in alleviation immunosuppressive microenvironment.

Abstract Overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), metal ion accumulation, and tricarboxylic acid cycle collapse are crucial factors in mitochondria‐mediated cell death. However, the highly adaptive nature damage‐repair capabilities malignant tumors strongly limit efficacy treatments based on a single treatment mode. To address this challenge, self‐reinforced bimetallic Mito‐Jammer is developed by incorporating doxorubicin (DOX) calcium peroxide (CaO 2 ) into hyaluronic (HA) ‐modified metal‐organic frameworks (MOF). After cellular, dissociates CaO Cu 2+ tumor microenvironment. The exposed further yields hydrogen (H O Ca weakly acidic environment to strengthen ‐based Fenton‐like reaction. Furthermore, combination chemodynamic therapy overload exacerbates ROS storms mitochondrial damage, resulting downregulation intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels blocking Cu‐ATPase sensitize cuproptosis. This multilevel interaction strategy also activates robust immunogenic death suppresses metastasis simultaneously. study presents multivariate model for revolutionizing mitochondria relying continuous retention ions boost cuproptosis/immunotherapy cancer.

Cuproptosis shows enormous application prospects in lung metastasis treatment. However, the glycolysis, Cu+ efflux mechanisms, and insufficient drug accumulation severely restrict cuproptosis efficacy. Herein, an inhalable poly(2-(N-oxide-N,N-diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (OPDEA)-coated copper-based metal–organic framework encapsulating pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 siRNA (siPDK) is constructed for mediating subsequently promoting immunotherapy, namely OMP. After inhalation, OMP highly efficient long-term retention, ascribing to OPDEA-mediated pulmonary mucosa penetration. Within tumor cells, degraded release Cu2+ under acidic condition, which will be reduced toxic induce glutathione (GSH) regulation. Meanwhile, siPDK released from inhibits intracellular glycolysis adenosine-5ʹ-triphosphate (ATP) production, then blocking protein ATP7B, thereby rendering cells more sensitive OMP-mediated cuproptosis. Moreover, triggers immunogenic cell death (ICD) promote dendritic (DCs) maturation CD8+ T infiltration.
