Malignant tumors pose a considerable threat to human life and health. Traditional treatments, such as radiotherapy chemotherapy, often lack specificity, leading collateral damage normal tissues. Tumor microenvironment (TME) is characterized by hypoxia, acidity, redox imbalances, elevated ATP levels factors that collectively promote tumor growth metastasis. This review provides comprehensive overview of the nanoparticles developed in recent years for TME-responsive strategies or TME-modulating methods therapy. The focus on designing synthesizing can interact with achieve precisely controlled drug release. These activate release under specific conditions within environment, thereby enhancing efficacy drugs while reducing toxicity cells. Moreover, simply eliminating cells does not fundamentally solve problem. Only comprehensively regulating TME make it unsuitable cell survival proliferation we more thorough therapeutic effects reduce risk recurrence. regulation aim suppress metastasis modulating various components TME. only improve treatment outcomes but also have potential lay foundation future personalized cancer therapies.

Increasing evidence indicates that immunotherapy is hindered by a hostile tumor microenvironment (TME) featured with deprivation of critical nutrients and pooling immunosuppressive metabolites. Tumor cells outcompete immune effector for essential nutrients. Meanwhile, wide range cell-derived toxic metabolites exerts negative impacts on anti-tumor response, diminishing the efficacy immunotherapy. Nanomedicine excellent targetability offers novel approach to improving cancer via metabolically reprogramming TME. Herein, we review recent strategies enhancing immunotherapeutic effects through rewiring metabolism nanomedicine.

Anti-HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) therapies significantly increase the overall survival of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. Unfortunately, a large fraction may develop primary or acquired resistance. Further, multidrug combination used to prevent this in clinic places significant burden on patients. To address issue, work develops nanotherapeutic platform that incorporates bimetallic gold-silver hollow nanoshells (AuAg HNSs) exceptional near-infrared (NIR) absorption capability, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor pyrotinib (PYR), and Herceptin (HCT). This realizes targeted delivery multiple therapeutic effects, including chemo-and photothermal activities, oxidative stress, immune response. In vitro assays reveal HCT-modified nanoparticles exhibit specific recognition ability effective internalization by cells. The released PYR inhibit cell proliferation downregulating HER2 its associated pathways. NIR laser application induces effect tumor apoptosis, whereas an intracellular reactive oxygen species burst amplifies stress triggers cancer ferroptosis. Importantly, multimodal therapy also promotes upregulation genes related TNF NF-κB signaling pathways, enhancing activation immunogenic death. vivo studies confirm reduction volume after treatment, substantiating potential effectiveness these nanocarriers.

Abstract The overexpression of polyamines in tumor cells contributes to the establishment immunosuppressive microenvironment and facilitates growth. Here, it have ingeniously designed multifunctional copper‐piceatannol/HA nanopills (Cu‐Pic/HA NPs) that effectively cause total intracellular depletion by inhibiting synthesis, depleting polyamines, impairing uptake, resulting enhanced pyroptosis cuproptosis, thus activating a powerful immune response achieve anti‐tumor therapy. Mitochondrial dysfunction from overall not only leads surge copper ions mitochondria, thereby causing aggregation toxic proteins induce but also triggers accumulation reactive oxygen species (ROS) within which further upregulates expression zDHHC5 zDHHC9 promote palmitoylation gasdermin D (GSDMD) GSDMD‐N, ultimately inducing pyroptosis.

Nanocarrier-based cytoplasmic protein delivery offers opportunities to develop therapeutics; however, many systems are positively charged, causing severe toxic effects. For enhanced therapeutics, it is also of great importance design nanocarriers with intrinsic bioactivity that can be integrated drugs due the limited proteins alone for disease treatment. We report here a system based on anionic phosphite-terminated phosphorus dendrimers anti-inflammatory activity. A dendrimer termed AK-137 optimized activity was selected complex through various physical interactions. Model such as bovine serum albumin, ribonuclease A, ovalbumin, and fibronectin (FN) transfected into cells exert their respective functions, including cancer cell apoptosis, dendritic maturation, or macrophage immunomodulation. Particularly, constructed AK-137@FN nanocomplexes display powerful therapeutic effects in acute lung injury gout arthritis models by integrating both carrier protein.
