Although immunotherapy is relatively effective in treating hematological malignancies, their efficacy against solid tumors still suboptimal or even noneffective presently. Compared to cancers, exhibit strikingly different immunosuppressive microenvironment, severely deteriorating the of immunotherapy: (1) chemical features such as hypoxia and mild acidity suppress activity immune cells, (2) pro-tumorigenic domestication cells microenvironment within further undermines effectiveness immunotherapy, (3) dense physical barrier tumor tissues prevents intratumoral infiltration contact killing active cells. Therefore, we believe that reversing are critical priority for tumors. Due unique morphologies, structures, compositions, nanomedicines have become powerful tools achieving this goal. In Perspective, will first briefly introduce then summarize most recent progresses nanomedicine-based by remodeling immune-microenvironment a comprehensive manner. It highly expected Perspective aid advancing tumors, optimistic on future development burgeoning field.

Abstract Low efficacy of immunotherapy due to the poor immunogenicity most tumors and their insufficient infiltration by immune cells highlights importance inducing immunogenic cell death activating system for achieving better treatment outcomes. Herein, ferroelectric Bi 2 CuO 4 nanoparticles with rich copper vacancies (named BCO‐V Cu ) are rationally designed engineered ferroelectricity‐enhanced apoptosis, cuproptosis, subsequently evoked immunotherapy. In this structure, suppressed recombination electron–hole pairs band bending polarization lead high catalytic activity, triggering reactive oxygen species bursts apoptosis. The fragments produced apoptosis serve as antigens activate T cells. Moreover, generated charge catalysis, nanomedicine can act “a smart switch” open membrane, promote nanomaterial endocytosis, shut down + outflow pathway evoke thus a strong response is triggered reduced content adenosine triphosphate. Ribonucleic acid transcription tests reveal pathways related activation. Thus, study firstly demonstrates feasible strategy enhancing using single semiconductor‐induced cuproptosis.

Catalytic activity of violet phosphorus-based nanosystems and the role of metabolites in tumor therapy

Nature Communications, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 15(1)

Опубликована: Авг. 8, 2024

Although nanocatalytic medicine has demonstrated its advantages in tumor therapy, the outcomes heavily relie on substrate concentration and metabolic pathways are still indistinct. We discover that violet phosphorus quantum dots (VPQDs) can catalyze production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) without requiring external stimuli catalytic substrates confirmed to be (O2) hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) through computational simulation experiments. Considering short O2 H2O2 at site, we utilize calcium (CaO2) supply for VPQDs construct nanoparticles together with them, named VPCaNPs. VPCaNPs induce oxidative stress cells, particularly characterized by a significant increase hydroxyl radicals superoxide radicals, which cause substantial damage structure function ultimately leading cell apoptosis. Intriguingly, provided CaO2 degrade slowly, degradation product, phosphate, as well CaO2-generated ions, promote calcification. Antitumor immune activation less metastasis also observed administrated animals. In conclusion, our study unveils anti-tumor activity catalysts generating cytotoxic ROS products calcification, providing promising strategy treating tumors.

Tensile Strain‐Mediated Bimetallene Nanozyme for Enhanced Photothermal Tumor Catalytic Therapy

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 63(24)

Опубликована: Апрель 9, 2024

Abstract Nanozymes have demonstrated significant potential in combating malignant tumor proliferation through catalytic therapy. However, the therapeutic effect is often limited by insufficient performance. In this study, we propose utilization of strain engineering metallenes to fully expose active regions due their ultrathin nature. Here, present first report on a novel tensile strain‐mediated local amorphous RhRu (la‐RhRu) bimetallene with exceptional intrinsic photothermal and photo‐enhanced multiple enzyme‐like activities. Through geometric phase analysis, electron diffraction profile, X‐ray diffraction, it revealed that crystalline‐amorphous heterophase boundaries can generate approximately 2 % bimetallene. The structure in‐plane induce an amplified effect. Both experimental theoretical evidence support notion promotes Functioning as microenvironment (TME)‐responsive nanozyme, la‐RhRu exhibits remarkable efficacy both vitro vivo.
