As a recently discovered form of regulated cell death, ferroptosis has attracted much attention in the field cancer therapy. However, achieving considerably enhanced efficacy is often restricted by overexpression endogenous glutathione (GSH) tumor microenvironment (TME). In this work, we report ferroptosis-inducing strategy GSH depletion and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation based on biodegradable copper-doped calcium phosphate (CaP) with L-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) loading (denoted as BSO@CuCaP-LOD, BCCL). BCCL was conducted biomineralization approach using lactate oxidases (LOD) bio-template to obtain Cu-doped CaP nanoparticles. Then, BSO loaded nanoparticles pH-responsive biodegradability endow controlled release Cu2+ response acidic TME. Benefiting from catalytic performance LOD, efficiently depletes level tumor, which can generate H2O2 for subsequent Fenton-like reaction. The intracellular followed GSH-mediated Cu2+/Cu+ conversion, leading inhibition peroxidase 4 (GPX4) •OH radicals via Cu+-mediated confers induction LOD-induced production, BSO-mediated depletion, ROS generation, cause effective ferroptotic damage. verified vitro vivo assays, designed nanoplatform highly biocompatible exhibits superior anticancer therapy uterine cervical carcinoma U14 xenografts. This study, therefore, provides therapeutic platform that modulating TME enable intensive generating depleting performance, well an innovative paradigm ferroptosis-based

Abstract Recent breakthroughs in tumor immunotherapy have confirmed the capacity of immune system to fight several cancers. The effective means treating cancer involves accelerating death cells and improving patient immunity. Dynamic changes microenvironment alter actual effects anti-tumor drug production may trigger favorable or unfavorable responses by modulating tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Notably, CD8 + T are one primary that provide response. Tumor stem will resist evade destruction through various mechanisms as exert their function. This paper reviews research on regulation development prognosis directly indirectly role cells. We also discuss related strategies.

As a newly defined type of programmed cell death, ferroptosis is considered potent weapon against tumors due to its distinct mechanism from other types death. Ferroptosis triggered by the uncontrolled accumulation hydroperoxyl polyunsaturated fatty acid-containing phospholipids, also called lipid peroxidation. The peroxidation, generated through enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms, drives changes in morphology destruction membrane integrity. Here, we dissect mechanisms induced enzymatically or non-enzymatically, summarize major metabolism pathways modulating provide insights into relationship between tumor suppression. In this review, discuss recent advances microenvironments prospect potential therapeutic application.

cGAS-STING pathway activation has attracted considerable attention in antitumor immunotherapy, but clinical outcomes lag behind expectations due to overlooked negative feedback mechanisms. Here, we determine that STING promotes tumor stemness, which weakens the efficacy of STING-based therapies, presenting a double-edged sword. To address this therapeutic paradox, simple metal-phenolic polymeric micelle (HMQ) was developed, Mn2+ (a agonist) is coordinated with quercetin stemness inhibitor) and hyaluronic acid (HA), unlock full potential pathway. This unique coordination structure integrates active targeting rapid pH-responsive drug release. Importantly, released drugs remained their original form, avoiding changes bioactivity. HMQ effectively mitigates stemness-promoting effects activation, thus significantly amplifying potency cGAS-STING-based therapies. intelligent facile establishes new generation agonists promising translatability provides flexible platform for win–win strategy.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) facilitates tumor recurrence and metastasis, which has become a main cause of chemotherapy failure in clinical. However, the current therapeutic effects against MDR remain unsatisfactory, mainly hampered by rigid structure drug-resistant cell membranes uncontrolled drug release. In this study, based on sequential release strategy, we engineered core–shell nanoparticle (DOX-M@CaP@ATV@HA) depleting cholesterol for reverse MDR. DOX-M@CaP@ATV@HA could accurately target cells due to active targetability hyaluronic acid (HA) toward CD44 receptors. The calcium phosphate (CaP) shell was cleaved lysosomal acidic environment so that cholesterol-lowering atorvastatin (ATV) rapidly released diminish P-glycoprotein (P-gp) level membrane, thereby boosting uptake. Next, doxorubicin (DOX) gradually from hydrophobic core mPEG-DSPE micelle, inflicting irreversible DNA damage triggering apoptosis. nanosystem proven both vitro vivo effectively exhibited remarkable efficacy tumors with high biosafety. conclusion, reverses via depletion, provides an innovative strategy treatment.

Abstract Emerging evidence indicates that modulating glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) to induce ferroptosis is a promising strategy for tumor treatment. However, most of the GPX4 small molecule inhibitors face limitations due their poor delivery efficacy and low specificity activation. Herein, ferroptosis‐inducing nanomedicine developed integrates nutlin‐3 with iridium oxide nanoclusters (NUT‐IrO x NCs) enhanced ferroptosis‐driven multimodal therapeutic in colorectal cancer (CRC). This NUT‐IrO NCs can (GSH) depletion via Ir (VI)‐Ir (III) transition, while nutlin‐3, well‐established inhibitor p53‐MDM2 interaction, suppresses GSH production by modulation p53/SLC7A11/xCT signaling pathway.
