Sorafenib is one of the few effective first-line drugs approved for treatment advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, development drug resistance common among individuals with HCC. Recent evidence indicated that anticancer activity sorafenib mainly relies on induction ferroptosis. Furthermore, in our study, genes suppress ferroptosis, especially GPX4 and DHODH, were enriched sorafenib-resistant cells primary tissues associated poor prognosis HCC patients who received treatment. Therefore, a new ferroptosis inducer comprising multiplex small interfering RNA (multi-siRNA) capable simultaneously silencing DHODH was created. Then, exosomes high multi-siRNA loading HCC-specific targeting established by fusing SP94 peptide N-terminal recognition motif (RRM) U1-A exosomal membrane protein Lamp2b. The results from vitro vivo experiments indicate this tumor-targeting nano-delivery system (ExoSP94-lamp2b-RRM-multi-siRNA) could enhance sorafenib-induced overcome resistance. Taken together, HCC-targeted (ExoSP94-Lamp2b-RRM) specifically deliver to tissues, expression consequently increase sensitivity sorafenib, which opens avenue clinically overcoming perspective

Abstract Tumor immunotherapy is only effective in a fraction of patients due to low response rate and severe side effects, these challenges clinics can be addressed through induction immunogenic cell death (ICD). ICD elicited from many antitumor therapies release danger associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) tumor‐associated antigens facilitate maturation dendritic cells (DCs) infiltration cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). The process reverse the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment improve sensitivity immunotherapy. Nanostructure‐based drug delivery systems (NDDSs) are explored induce by incorporating therapeutic molecules for chemotherapy, photosensitizers (PSs) photodynamic therapy (PDT), photothermal conversion agents (PTT), radiosensitizers radiotherapy (RT). These NDDSs loaded at right dose place time, resulting greater effectiveness lower toxicity. Immunotherapeutic also combined with achieve synergic effect multi‐modality approach. In this review, harnessed load multiple PDT, PTT, RT combination promote reduce effects cancer treatment.

The field of nanozymes has developed rapidly over the past decade. Among various oxidoreductases mimics, catalase (CAT)-like nanozyme, acting as an essential part regulation reactive oxygen species (ROS), attracted extensive research interest in recent years. However, CAT-like are not well discussed other such peroxidase (POD)-like nanozymes, etc. Compared with natural or artificial CAT enzymes, have unique properties low cost, size-dependent properties, high catalytic activity and stability, easy surface modification, etc., which make them widely used fields, especially tumor therapy disease treatment. Consequently, there is a great requirement to systematic discussion on nanozymes. In this review, some key aspects deeply summarized as: 1) Typical classified by different nanomaterials; 2) mechanisms proposed experimental theoretical studies; 3) Extensive applications regard therapy, cytoprotection sensing. Therefore, it prospected that review will contribute further design optimize their much higher efficiency than before.

Immunotherapy that harnesses the human immune system to fight cancer has received widespread attention and become a mainstream strategy for treatment. Cancer immunotherapy not only eliminates primary tumors but also treats metastasis recurrence, representing major advantage over traditional treatments. Recently with development of nanotechnology, there exists much work applying nanomaterials on basis their excellent physiochemical properties, such as efficient tissue-specific delivery function, huge specific surface area, controllable chemistry. Consequently, nanotechnology holds significant potential in improving efficacy immunotherapy. Nanotechnology-based mainly manifests its inhibitory effect via two different approaches: one is produce an effective anti-tumor response during tumorigenesis, other enhance tumor defense ability by modulating suppression mechanism microenvironment. With success immunotherapy, understanding interaction between smart nanomedicine provided vigorous vitality This review highlights application, progress, prospect process immunoediting discusses several engineering methods improve efficiency

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer and one leading causes cancer-related death worldwide. Advanced HCC displays strong resistance to chemotherapy, traditional chemotherapy drugs do not achieve satisfactory therapeutic efficacy. Sorafenib an oral kinase inhibitor that inhibits tumor cell proliferation angiogenesis induces apoptosis. It also improves survival rates patients with advanced cancer. However, due its poor solubility, fast metabolism, low bioavailability, clinical applications sorafenib have been substantially restricted. In recent years, various studies conducted on use nanoparticles improve drug targeting efficacy in HCC. Moreover, extensively explored sorafenib, a variety nanoparticles, such as polymer, lipid, silica, metal developed for treating All these new technologies improved targeted treatment by promoted nanomedicines treatments This review provides overview hot topics nanoscience latest status further introduces current research nanoparticle delivery systems sorafenib.
