Abstract
The regulation of intracellular ionic homeostasis to trigger antigen-specific immune responses has attracted extensive interest in tumor therapy. In this study, we developed a dual-pathway nanoreactor, Au-Cu2-xSe@ZIF-8@P18 NPs (ACS-Z-P NPs), which targets danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and releases Zn2+ and reactive oxygen species (ROS) within the tumor microenvironment (TME). Zn2+ released from the metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) was deposited in the cytoplasm, leading to aberrant transcription levels of intracellular zinc-regulated proteins and DNA damage, thereby inducing pyroptosis and immunogenic cell death (ICD) dependent on caspase1/gasdermin D (GSDMD) pathway. Furthermore, upon laser irradiation, ACS-Z-P NPs could break through the limitations of inherent defects of immunosuppression in TME, enhance ROS generation through a Fenton-like reaction cascade, which subsequently triggered the activation of inflammatory vesicles and the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). This cascade effect led to the amplification of pyroptosis and immunogenic cell death (ICD), thereby remodeling the immunosuppressed TME. Consequently, this process improved dendritic cell (DC) antigen presentation and augmented anti-tumor T-cell responses, effectively initiating antigen-specific immune responses and further enhancing pyroptosis and ICD. This study explores the therapeutic properties of these mechanisms in detail. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: : The synthesized Au-Cu2-xSe@ZIF-8@P18 nanoparticles (ACS-Z-Ps) can effectively enhance the body's immune response by regulating zinc ion levels within cells. This regulation leads to abnormal levels of zinc-regulated protein transcription and DNA damage, which induces cellular pyroptosis. As a result, antigen presentation to dendritic cells (DCs) is improved, and anti-tumor T-cell responses are enhanced. The ACS-Z-P NPs overcome the limitations of ROS deficiency and immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment by using H2O2 in the tumor microenvironment through a Fenton-like reaction. This leads to an increased production of ROS and O2, remodeling of the immunosuppressed tumor microenvironment, and enhanced induction of cell pyroptosis and immunogenic cell death. ACS-Z-P NPs targeted B16 cells using the photosensitizer P18 in combination with PDT treatment. This approach significantly inhibited the proliferation of B16 cells and effectively inhibited tumor growth.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy, as an emerging cancer treatment approach, harnesses the patient's own immune system to effectively prevent tumor recurrence or metastasis. However, its clinical application has been significantly hindered by relatively low immune response rates. In recent years, metal-based biomaterials have been extensively studied as effective immunomodulators and potential tools for enhancing anti-tumor immune responses, enabling the reversal of immune suppression without inducing toxic side effects. This review introduces the classification of bioactive metal elements and summarizes their immune regulatory mechanisms. In addition, we discuss the immunomodulatory roles of biomaterials constructed from various metals, including aluminum, manganese, gold, calcium, zinc, iron, magnesium, and copper. More importantly, a systematic overview of their applications in enhancing immunotherapy is provided. Finally, the prospects and challenges of metal-based biomaterials with immunomodulatory functions in cancer immunotherapy are outlined.

Abstract
Though platinum (Pt)-based complexes have been recently exploited as immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducers for activating immunotherapy, the effective activation of sufficient immune responses with minimal side effects in deep-seated tumors remains a formidable challenge. Herein, we propose the first example of a near-infrared (NIR) light-activated and lysosomal targeted Pt(II) metallacycle (1) as a supramolecular ICD inducer. 1 synergistically potentiates immunomodulatory response in deep-seated tumors via multiple-regulated approaches, involving NIR light excitation, boosted reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, good selectivity between normal and tumor cells, and enhanced tumor penetration/retention capabilities. Specifically, 1 has excellent depth-activated ROS production (~7 mm), accompanied by strong anti-diffusion and anti-ROS quenching ability. In vitro experiments demonstrate that 1 exhibits significant cellular uptake and ROS generation in tumor cells as well as respective multicellular tumor spheroids. Based on these advantages, 1 induces a more efficient ICD in an ultralow dose (i.e., 5 μM) compared with the clinical ICD inducer-oxaliplatin (300 μM). In vivo, vaccination experiments further demonstrate that 1 serves as a potent ICD inducer through eliciting CD8+/CD4+ T cell response and Foxp3+ T cell depletion with negligible adverse effects. This study pioneers a promising avenue for safe and effective metal-based ICD agents in immunotherapy.

Abstract
Cell death regulation is essential for tissue homeostasis and its dysregulation often underlies cancer development. Understanding the different pathways of cell death can provide novel therapeutic strategies for battling cancer. This review explores several key cell death mechanisms of apoptosis, necroptosis, autophagic cell death, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis. The research gap addressed involves a thorough analysis of how these cell death pathways can be precisely targeted for cancer therapy, considering tumor heterogeneity and adaptation. It delves into genetic and epigenetic factors and signaling cascades like the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/AKT/mTOR) and mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) pathways, which are critical for the regulation of cell death. Additionally, the interaction of the microenvironment with tumor cells, and particularly the influence of hypoxia, nutrient deprivation, and immune cellular interactions, are explored. Emphasizing therapeutic strategies, this review highlights emerging modulators and inducers such as B cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) homology domain 3 (BH3) mimetics, tumour necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), chloroquine, and innovative approaches to induce ferroptosis and pyroptosis. This review provides insights into cancer therapy's future direction, focusing on multifaceted approaches to influence cell death pathways and circumvent drug resistance. This examination of evolving strategies underlines the considerable clinical potential and the continuous necessity for in-depth exploration within this scientific domain.

Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated that the combination of photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy and chemotherapy is highly effective in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the clinical application of this approach has been hindered by the lack of efficient and low-toxicity drug delivery platforms. To address this issue, we developed a novel biomimetic nanocarrier platform named ZID@RM, which utilizes ZIF8 functional nanoparticles encapsulated with macrophage membrane and loaded with indocyanine green and doxorubicin. The bionic nanocarrier platform has good biocompatibility, reducing the risk of rapid clearance by macrophages and improving the targeting ability for HCC cells. Under the dual regulation of acidity and infrared light, ZID@RM stimulated the generation of abundant reactive oxygen species within HCC cells, induced tumor cell pyroptosis and promoted the release of damage-associated molecular patterns to induce immune responses. In the future, this technology platform has the potential to provide personalized and improved healthcare by using patients' own macrophage membranes to create an efficient drug delivery system for tumor therapy.Graphical abstract Scheme 1 Schematic representation of the synthesis of a biomimetic nanomedicine delivery platform (ZID@RM) and its application in tumor imaging-guided combination therapy.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) hold great potential in tumor pyroptosis therapy, yet they are still limited by short species lifespan and limited diffusion distance. Inducing cells into a metastable state and then applying external energy can effectively trigger pyroptosis, but systemic sensitization still faces challenges, such as limited ROS content, rapid decay, and short treatment windows. Herein, a nanohybrid-based redox homeostasis-perturbator system was designed that synergistically induce early lysosomal escape, autophagy inhibition, and redox perturbation functions to effectively sensitize cells to address these challenges. Specifically, weakly alkaline layered double hydroxide nanosheets (LDH NSs) with pH-responsive degradation properties enabled early lysosomal escape within 4 h, releasing poly(L-dopa) nanoparticles for inducing catechol-quinone redox cycling in the cytoplasm. The intracellular ROS levels were systematically rebounded by 3-4 times in tumor cells and lasted for over 4 h. Subsequently induced lysosomal stress and Ca2+ signaling activation resulted in severe mitochondrial dysfunction, as well as a perilous metastable state. Thereby, sequential near-infrared light was applied to trigger amplified stress through a local photothermal conversion. This led to sufficiently high levels of cleaved caspase-1 and GSDMD activation (2.5-2.8-fold increment) and subsequent pyroptosis response. In addition, OH- released by LDH elevated pH to alleviate the limitation of glutathione depletion by quinones at acidic pH and inhibit protective autophagy. Largely secreted inflammatory factors (2.5-5.6-fold increment), efficient maturation of dendritic cells, and further immune stimulation were boosted for tumor inhibition as a consequence. This study offers a new paradigm and insights into the synergy of internal systematic cellular sensitization and sequential external energy treatment to achieve tumor suppression through pyroptosis.

Abstract
Mass transfer of bulky molecules, e.g., bioenzymes, particularly for cross-scale multibiomolecules, imposes serious challenges for microporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Here, we create a hierarchically porous MOF heterostructure featuring highly region-ordered micro-, meso-, and macro-pores by growing a microporous ZIF-8 shell onto a hollow Prussian blue core through an epitaxial growth strategy. This allows for localized loading of large bioenzyme glucose oxidase (GOx) and small drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) within specific pores simultaneously and triggers unique guest-carrier cooperative anticancer capabilities. The stable ZIF-8 outer layer effectively blocks the core pores, preventing the undesired leakage of GOx into normal tissues. The acidity-induced ZIF-8 degradation gradually releases Zn2+ and loaded 5-FU for chemotherapy under acidic tumor microenvironments. With the loss of the shielding effect of the ZIF-8 coating, the released GOx depletes intratumoral glucose (Glu) for starvation therapy. Notably, an accelerated cascade reaction occurs between ZIF-8 decomposition and GOx release, facilitated by the modulator factor of Glu. This culminates in the realization of synergistic cancer therapy, as comprehensively demonstrated by in vitro and in vivo experiments, as well as transcriptome sequencing analyses. Our work not only introduces a hierarchically porous MOF heterostructure with highly region-ordered pores but also provides a perspective for guest-carrier cooperative anticancer therapy.

Abstract
Although self-assembly has emerged as an effective tool for fabricating biomaterials, achieving precise control over the morphologies and functionalities of the resultant assemblies remains an ongoing challenge. Inspired by the copper peptide naturally present in human plasma, in this study, we designed a synthetic precursor, FcGH. FcGH can self-assemble via two distinct pathways: spontaneous and Cu2+-induced. These two assembly pathways enabled the formation of assemblies with tunable morphologies by adjusting the amount of added Cu2+. We found that the nanoparticles formed by Cu2+-induced self-assembly exhibited a significantly higher cellular uptake efficiency than the wormlike fibers formed spontaneously. Moreover, this Cu2+-induced assembly process occurred spontaneously at a 1 : 1 molar ratio of Cu2+ to FcGH, avoiding the excessive use of Cu2+ and a tedious preparation procedure. By co-assembling with 10-hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT)-conjugated FcGH, Cu2+-induced supramolecular nanodrugs elicited multiple cell death modalities in cancer cells with elevated immunogenicity, enhancing the therapeutic effect compared to free HCPT. This study highlights Cu2+-induced self-assembly as an efficient tool for directing the assembly of nanodrugs and for synergistic tumor therapy.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024:e2406340. [PMID: 39158490 DOI: 10.1002/advs.202406340] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2024] [Revised: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024]
Abstract
Pyroptosis possesses potent antitumor immune activity, making pyroptosis inducer development a promising direction for tumor immunotherapy. Persistent luminescence nanoparticles (PLNPs) are highly sensitive optical probes extensively employed in tumor diagnosis and therapy. However, a pyroptosis inducer based on PLNPs has not been reported yet. Herein, polyethylene glycol-poly lactic acid-co-glycolic acid (PEG-PLGA: PP) modified biodegradable CaS:Eu2+ (CSE@PP) PLNPs are synthesized as a pyroptosis inducer for tumor immunotherapy for the first time. The synthesized CSE@PP possesses biowindow persistent luminescence (PersL) and pH-responsive degradation properties, allowing it to remain stable under neutral pH but degrade when exposed to weak acid (pH < 6.5). During degradation within the tumor, CSE@PP constantly releases H2S and Ca2+ while its PersL gradually fades away. Thus, the PersL signal can self-monitor H2S and Ca2+ release. Furthermore, the released H2S and Ca2+ result in mitochondrial dysfunction and the inactivation of reactive oxygen species scavenging enzymes, synergistic facilitating intracellular oxidative stress, which induces caspase-1/GSDM-D dependent pyroptosis and subsequent antitumor immune responses. In a word, it is confirmed that CSE@PP can self-monitor H2S and Ca2+ release and pyroptosis-mediated tumor Immunotherapy. This work will facilitate biomedical applications of PLNPs and inspire pyroptosis-induced tumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
Pyroptosis is a type of programmed cell death mediated by gasdermines (GSDMs). The N-terminal domain of GSDMs forms pores in the plasma membrane, causing cell membrane rupture and the release of cell contents, leading to an inflammatory response and mediating pyrodeath. Pyroptosis plays an important role in inflammatory diseases and malignant tumors. With the further study of pyroptosis, an increasing number of studies have shown that the pyroptosis pathway can regulate the tumor microenvironment and antitumor immunity of colorectal cancer and is closely related to the occurrence, development, treatment and prognosis of colorectal cancer. This review aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of pyroptosis and the role of pyroptosis in the occurrence, development, treatment and prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) and to provide ideas for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of CRC.

Abstract
Formaldehyde (HCHO), as a common volatile organic compound, has a serious impact on human health in the daily lives and industrial production scenarios. Given the security issue of HCHO detection and danger warning, a ZIF-8/copper foam based pulsed airstream-driven triboelectric nanogenerator (ZCP-TENG) is designed to develop the self-powered HCHO sensors. By combining contact electrification and electrostatic induction, the ZCP-TENG can be utilized for airflow energy harvesting and HCHO concentration detection. The short-circuit current and output power of the ZCP-TENG can reach 2.0 µA and 81 µW (20 ppm). With the high surface area, abundant micro-nano pores, and excellent permeation flux, the ZCP-TENGs exhibit excellent HCHO sensing response (61.3% at 100 ppm), low detection limit (≈2 ppm), and rapid response/recovery time (14/15 s), which can be served as a highly sensitive and selective HCHO sensor. By connecting an intelligent wireless alarm, the ZCP-TENGs are designed to construct a self-powered warning system to monitor and remind the HCHO of exceedance situations. Moreover, by combining a support vector machine model, the difference concentrations can be quickly identified with an average prediction accuracy of 100%. This study illustrates that ZCP-TENGs have broad application prospects and provide guidance for HCHO monitoring and danger warnings.

Abstract
Cellular communication mediated by messenger molecules plays an important role in the progression of cancer. Herein, pH-sensitive zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) loaded with PtCl2(OH)2(NH3)2 [i.e., Pt(IV)] bimetallic nanoplatforms were developed for prostate cancer therapy by interfering inositol-1, 4, 5-trisphosphate (IP3)-mediated cellular communication. As an important messenger in cells, the function of IP3 was found to be efficiently interfered with by the Pt(IV)-binding inositol unit. This finding effect of Pt(IV) is totally different from its traditional function as a prodrug of cis-platinum for chemotherapy. The decreased IP3 signal further downregulated the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration and downstream signal transduction to inhibit proliferation and invasion of tumor cells. Meanwhile, Zn2+ released from ZIF-8 under an acidic tumor microenvironment decreased adenosine triphosphate biosynthesis, which could further limit the cellular communication. Such a proposed strategy of interfering cellular communication has demonstrated its feasibility in this study, which may provide new perspectives for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Ultrasound (US)-mediated piezocatalytic tumor therapy has attracted much attention due to its notable tissue-penetration capabilities, noninvasiveness, and low oxygen dependency. Nevertheless, the efficiency of piezocatalytic therapy is limited due to an inadequate piezoelectric response, low separation of electron-hole (e--h+) pairs, and complex tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, an ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) sulfur-vacancy-engineered (Sv-engineered) Cu@SnS2-x nanosheet (NS) with an enhanced piezoelectric effect was constructed via the heterovalent substitution strategy of Sn4+ by Cu2+. The introduction of Cu2+ ion not only causes changes in the crystal structure to increase polarization but also generates rich Sv to decrease band gap from 2.16 to 1.62 eV and inhibit e--h+ pairs recombination, collectively leading to the highly efficient generation of reactive oxygen species under US irradiation. Moreover, Cu@SnS2-x shows US-enhanced TME-responsive Fenton-like catalytic activity and glutathione depletion ability, further aggravating the oxidative stress. Both in vitro and in vivo results prove that the Sv-engineered Cu@SnS2-x NSs can significantly kill tumor cells and achieve high-efficiency piezocatalytic tumor therapy in a biocompatible manner. Overall, this study provides a new avenue for sonocatalytic therapy and broadens the application of 2D piezoelectric materials.

Abstract
Baicalin (BAN) has shown promise in alleviating myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, yet its limited solubility and biocompatibility have hindered its application. Developing drug delivery systems is a promising strategy to enhance the therapeutic potential of BAN in the context of I/R injury. This study aims to prepare a BAN-loaded nanodrug system using polydopamine (PDA)-modified Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) as a carrier, with the goal of improving BAN's mitigating effects on I/R injury. We prepared the BAN nanoparticles (NPs) system, PZB NPs, using ZIF-8 as the carrier. The system was characterized in terms of morphology, particle size, zeta potential, and X-ray diffraction (XRD). We assessed the cytotoxicity of PZB NPs in H9c2 cells, investigated its effects and mechanisms in H/R-induced H9c2 cells, and evaluated its ability to alleviate myocardial I/R injury in rats. PZB NPs exhibited good dispersion, with a BAN loading efficiency of 26.43 ± 1.55%, a hydrated particle size of 102.21 ± 1.19 nm, and a zeta potential of -24.84 ± 0.07 mV. It displayed slow and sustained drug release in an acidic environment (pH 5.5). In vitro studies revealed that PZB NPs was non-cytotoxic and significantly enhanced the recovery of H/R injury H9c2 cell viability. PZB NPs suppressed cell apoptosis, activated the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, and cleared ROS. In vivo study demonstrated that PZB NPs significantly reduced infarct size, ameliorated fibrosis and improved heart function. The PZB NPs markedly enhances BAN's ability to alleviate I/R injury, both in vitro and in vivo, offering a promising drug delivery system for clinical applications.

Abstract
Periodontitis involves hyperactivated stromal cells that recruit immune cells, exacerbating inflammation. This study presents an ATP-responsive metal-organic framework (Mg/Zn-MOF) designed for periodontitis treatment, utilizing ion interference to modulate immune responses and prevent tissue destruction. Addressing the challenges of synergistic ion effects and targeted delivery faced by traditional immunomodulatory nanomaterials, the Mg/Zn-MOF system is activated by extracellular ATP-a pivotal molecule in periodontitis pathology-ensuring targeted ion release. Magnesium and zinc ions released from the framework synergistically inhibit membrane pore formation by attenuating Gasdermin D (GSDMD) expression and activation. This action curtails pyroptosis, lactate dehydrogenase and IL-1β release, thwarting the onset of inflammatory cascades. Mechanistically, Mg/Zn-MOF intervenes in both the NLRP3/Caspase-1/GSDMD and Caspase-11/GSDMD pathways to mitigate pyroptosis. In vivo assessments confirm its effectiveness in diminishing inflammatory cell infiltration and preserving collagen integrity, thereby safeguarding against periodontal tissue damage and bone loss. This investigation highlights the promise of ion-interference strategies in periodontitis immunotherapy, representing a significant stride in developing targeted therapeutic approaches.

Natural and artificial enzyme oxygen-generating systems for photodynamic therapy (PDT) are developed for tumor treatment, yet they have fallen short of the desired efficacy. Moreover, both the enzymes and photosensitizers usually need carriers for efficient delivery to tumor sites. Here, a self-cascade-enhanced multimodal tumor therapy is developed by ingeniously integrating self-cascade-enhanced PDT with Zn2+-overloading therapy. Manganese-porphyrin (TCPP-Mn) is chosen both as the photosensitizer and catalase (CAT) mimic, which can be encapsulated within glucose oxidase (GOx). Acid-responsive zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is applied as the carrier for TCPP-Mn@GOx (T@G), attaining TCPP-Mn@GOx@ZIF-8 (T@G@Z). T@G@Z demonstrates robust anti-tumor ability as follows: upon the structural degradation of ZIF-8, GOx can mediate the oxidation of glucose and generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2); TCPP-Mn can catalyze H2O2 into O2 for self-cascade-enhanced PDT; meanwhile, the released Zn2+ can enhance oxidative stress and induce mitochondrial dysfunction by destroying mitochondrial membrane potential; furthermore, immunotherapy can be activated to resist primary tumor and tumor metastasis. The self-cascade-enhanced T@G@Z exhibited its potential application for further tumor management.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is a highly fatal disease, and existing treatment methods are ineffective, so it is urgent to develop new effective treatment strategies. The high dependence of pancreatic cancer cells on glucose and glutamine suggests that disrupting this dependency could serve as an alternative strategy for pancreatic cancer therapy. We identified the vital genes glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and alanine-serine-cysteine transporter 2 (ASCT2) through bioinformatics analysis, which regulate glucose and glutamine metabolism in pancreatic cancer, respectively. Human serum albumin nanoparticles (HSA NPs) for delivery of GLUT1 and ASCT2 inhibitors, BAY-876/V-9302@HSA NPs, were prepared by a self-assembly process. This nanodrug inhibits glucose and glutamine uptake of pancreatic cancer cells through the released BAY-876 and V-9302, leading to nutrition deprivation and oxidative stress. The inhibition of glutamine leads to the inhibition of the synthesis of the glutathione, which further aggravates oxidative stress. Both of them lead to a significant increase in reactive oxygen species, activating caspase 1 and GSDMD and finally inducing pyroptosis. This study provides a new effective strategy for orthotopic pancreatic cancer treatment by dual starvation-induced pyroptosis. The study for screening metabolic targets using bioinformatics analysis followed by constructing nanodrugs loaded with inhibitors will inspire future targeted metabolic therapy for pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Low efficacy of immunotherapy due to the poor immunogenicity of most tumors and their insufficient infiltration by immune cells highlights the importance of inducing immunogenic cell death and activating immune system for achieving better treatment outcomes. Herein, ferroelectric Bi2CuO4 nanoparticles with rich copper vacancies (named BCO-VCu) are rationally designed and engineered for ferroelectricity-enhanced apoptosis, cuproptosis, and the subsequently evoked immunotherapy. In this structure, the suppressed recombination of the electron-hole pairs by the vacancies and the band bending by the ferroelectric polarization lead to high catalytic activity, triggering reactive oxygen species bursts and inducing apoptosis. The cell fragments produced by apoptosis serve as antigens to activate T cells. Moreover, due to the generated charge by the ferroelectric catalysis, this nanomedicine can act as "a smart switch" to open the cell membrane, promote nanomaterial endocytosis, and shut down the Cu+ outflow pathway to evoke cuproptosis, and thus a strong immune response is triggered by the reduced content of adenosine triphosphate. Ribonucleic acid transcription tests reveal the pathways related to immune response activation. Thus, this study firstly demonstrates a feasible strategy for enhancing the efficacy of immunotherapy using single ferroelectric semiconductor-induced apoptosis and cuproptosis.

Abstract
Engineered nanomaterials are promising in biomedical application. However, insufficient understanding of their biocompatibility at the cellular and organic levels prevents their widely biomedical applications. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted increasing attention in recent years. In this work, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and polydopamine (PDA)-modified ZIF-8 are chosen as model nanomaterials due to its emergent role in nanomedicine. In vitro, the results demonstrate that the PDA coating greatly alleviates the cytotoxicity of ZIF-8 to RAW264.7, LO2, and HST6, which represent three different cell types in liver organs. Mechanistically, ZIF-8 entering into the cells can greatly induce the reactive oxygen species generation, which subsequently induces cell cycle delay and autophagy, ultimately leads to enhanced cytotoxicity. Further, human umbilical vein endothelial cells model and zebrafish embryos assay also confirm that PDA can compromise the ZIF-8 toxicity significantly. This study reveals that PDA-coated MOFs nanomaterials show great potential in nano-based drug delivery systems .

Abstract
Pyroptosis, a new mode of regulatory cell death, holds a promising prospect in tumor therapy. The occurrence of pyroptosis can trigger the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and activate the antitumor immune response. Moreover, enhancing intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation can effectively induce pyroptosis. Herein, an integrated nanoplatform (hCZAG) based on zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) with Cu2+ and Zn2+ as active nodes and glucose oxidase (GOx) loading is constructed to evoke pyroptosis. GOx can effectively elevate intracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels to regulate the unfavorable tumor microenvironment (TME). Cu2+ can be reduced to Cu+ by endogenous overexpressed GSH and both Cu2+ and Cu+ can exert Fenton-like activity to promote ROS generation and amplify oxidative stress. In addition, the accumulation of Cu2+ leads to the aggregation of lipoylated dihydrolipoamide S-acetyltransferase (DLAT), thus resulting in cuproptosis. Notably, the outburst of ROS induced by hCZAG activates Caspase-1 proteins, leads to the cleavage of gasdermin D (GSDMD), and induces pyroptosis. Pyroptosis further elicits an adaptive immune response, leading to immunogenic cell death (ICD). This study provides effective strategies for triggering pyroptosis-mediated immunotherapy and achieving improved therapeutic effects.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-centered chemodynamic therapy (CDT) holds significant potential for tumor-specific treatment. However, insufficient endogenous H2O2 and extra glutathione within tumor microenvironment (TME) severely deteriorate the CDT's effectiveness. Herein, rich-Zn-Co3O4/N-doped porous carbon (Zn-Co3O4/NC) was fabricated by two-step pyrolysis, and applied to build high-efficiency nano-platform for synergistic cancer therapy upon combination with glucose oxidase (GOx), labeled Zn-Co3O4/NC-GOx for clarity. Specifically, the multiple enzyme-like activities of the Zn-Co3O4/NC were scrutinously investigated, including peroxidase-like activity to convert H2O2 to O2∙-, catalase-like activity to decompose H2O2 into O2, and oxidase-like activity to transform O2 to O2∙-, which achieved the CDT through the catalytic cascade reaction. Simultaneously, GOx reacted with intracellular glucose to produce gluconic acid and H2O2, realizing starvation therapy. In the acidic TME, the Zn-Co3O4/NC-GOx rapidly caused intracellular Zn2+ pool overload and disrupted cellular homeostasis for ion-intervention therapy. Additionally, the Zn-Co3O4/NC exhibited glutathione peroxidase-like activity, which consumed glutathione in tumor cells and reduced the ROS consumption for ferroptosis. The tumor treatments offer some constructive insights into the nanozyme-mediated catalytic medicine, coupled by avoiding the TME limitations.

Abstract
Pyroptosis is regarded as a promising strategy to modulate tumor immune microenvironments for anticancer therapy. Although pyroptosis inducers have been extensively explored in the biomedical field, their drug resistance, off-targeting capacity, and adverse effects do not fulfill the growing demands of therapy. Nowadays, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with unique structures and facile synthesis/functionalization characteristics have shown great potential in anticancer therapy. The flexible choices of metal ions and ligands endow MOFs with inherent anti-cancer efficiency, whereas the porous structures in MOFs make them ideal vehicles for delivering various chemodrug-based pyroptosis inducers. In this review, we provide the latest advances in MOF-based materials to evoke pyroptosis and give a brief but comprehensive review of the different types of MOFs for pyroptosis-mediated cancer therapy. Finally, we also discuss the current challenges of MOF-based pyroptosis inducers and their future prospects in this field.

Abstract
Most antimicrobials treat wound infections by an oxidation effect, which is induced by the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the potential harm of the prolonged high level of ROS should not be ignored. In this study, we presented a novel cascade-reaction nanoparticle, Ir@Cu/Zn-MOF, to effectively regulate the ROS level throughout the healing progress of the infected wound. The nanoparticles consisted of a copper/zinc-modified metal-organic framework (Cu/Zn-MOF) serving as the external structure and an inner core composed of Ir-PVP NPs, which were achieved through a process known as "bionic mineralization". The released Cu2+ and Zn2+ from the shell structure contributed to the production of ROS, which acted as antimicrobial agents during the initial stage. With the disintegration of the shell, the Ir-PVP NP core was gradually released, exhibiting the property of multiple antioxidant enzyme activities, thereby playing an important role in clearing excessive ROS and alleviating oxidative stress. In a full-layer infected rat wound model, Ir@Cu/Zn-MOF nanoparticles presented exciting performance in promoting wound healing by clearing the bacteria and accelerating neovascularization as well as collagen deposition. This study provided a promising alternative for the repair of infected wounds.

Abstract
Increasing cellular immunogenicity and reshaping the immune tumor microenvironment (TME) are crucial for antitumor immunotherapy. Herein, this work develops a novel single-atom nanozyme pyroptosis initiator: UK5099 and pyruvate oxidase (POx)-co-loaded Cu-NS single-atom nanozyme (Cu-NS@UK@POx), that not only trigger pyroptosis through cascade biocatalysis to boost the immunogenicity of tumor cells, but also remodel the immunosuppressive TME by targeting pyruvate metabolism. By replacing N with weakly electronegative S, the original spatial symmetry of the Cu-N4 electron distribution is changed and the enzyme-catalyzed process is effectively regulated. Compared to spatially symmetric Cu-N4 single-atom nanozymes (Cu-N4 SA), the S-doped spatially asymmetric single-atom nanozymes (Cu-NS SA) exhibit stronger oxidase activities, including peroxidase (POD), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase (NOx), L-cysteine oxidase (LCO), and glutathione oxidase (GSHOx), which can cause enough reactive oxygen species (ROS) storms to trigger pyroptosis. Moreover, the synergistic effect of Cu-NS SA, UK5099, and POx can target pyruvate metabolism, which not only improves the immune TME but also increases the degree of pyroptosis. This study provides a two-pronged treatment strategy that can significantly activate antitumor immunotherapy effects via ROS storms, NADH/glutathione/L-cysteine consumption, pyruvate oxidation, and lactic acid (LA)/ATP depletion, triggering pyroptosis and regulating metabolism. This work provides a broad vision for expanding antitumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
Metal ions such as iron, zinc, copper, manganese, and calcium are essential for normal cellular processes, including DNA synthesis, enzyme activity, cellular signaling, and oxidative stress regulation. When the balance of metal homeostasis is disrupted, it can lead to various pathological conditions, including cancer. Thus, understanding the role of metal homeostasis in cancer has led to the development of anti-tumor strategies that specifically target the metal imbalance. Up to now, diverse small molecule-based chelators, ionophores, metal complexes, and metal-based nanomaterials have been developed to restore the normal balance of metals or exploit the dysregulation for therapeutic purposes. They hold great promise in inhibiting tumor growth, preventing metastasis, and enhancing the effectiveness of existing cancer therapies. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive summary of the strategies employed to modulate the homeostasis of iron, zinc, copper, manganese, and calcium for cancer therapy. Their modulation mechanisms for metal homeostasis are succinctly described, and their recent applications in the field of cancer therapy are discussed. At the end, the limitations of these approaches are addressed, and potential avenues for future developments are explored.

Abstract
Bimetallic hollow structures have attracted much attention due to their unique properties, but they still face the problems of nonuniform alloys and excessive etching leading to structural collapse. Here, uniform bimetallic hollow nanospheres are constructed by pore engineering and then highly loaded with hemin (Hemin@MOF). Interestingly, in the presence of polydopamine (PDA), the competitive coordination between anionic polymer (γ-PGA) and dimethylimidazole does not lead to the collapse of the external framework but self-assembly into a hollow structure. By constructing the Hemin@MOF immune platform and using E. coli O157:H7 as the detection object, we find that the visual detection limits can reach 10, 3, and 3 CFU/mL in colorimetric, photothermal, and catalytic modes, which is 4 orders of magnitude lower than the traditional gold standard. This study provides a new idea for the morphological modification of the metal-organic skeleton and multifunctional immunochromatography detection.

Abstract
There is an increasingly growing demand to balance tissue repair guidance and opportunistic infection (OI) inhibition in clinical implant surgery. Herein, we developed a nanoadjuvant for all-stage tissue repair guidance and biofilm-responsive OI eradication via in situ incorporating Cobaltiprotoporphyrin (CoPP) into Prussian blue (PB) to prepare PB-CoPP nanozymes (PCZs). Released CoPP possesses a pro-efferocytosis effect for eliminating apoptotic and progressing necrotic cells in tissue trauma, thus preventing secondary inflammation. Once OIs occur, PCZs with switchable nanocatalytic capacity can achieve bidirectional pyroptosis regulation. Once reaching the acidic biofilm microenvironment, PCZs possess peroxidase (POD)-like activity that can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) to eradicate bacterial biofilms, especially when synergized with the photothermal effect. Furthermore, generated ROS can promote macrophage pyroptosis to secrete inflammatory cytokines and antimicrobial proteins for biofilm eradication in vivo. After eradicating the biofilm, PCZs possess catalase (CAT)-like activity in a neutral environment, which can scavenge ROS and inhibit macrophage pyroptosis, thereby improving the inflammatory microenvironment. Briefly, PCZs as nanoadjuvants feature the capability of all-stage tissue repair guidance and biofilm-responsive OI inhibition that can be routinely performed in all implant surgeries, providing a wide range of application prospects and commercial translational value.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is notorious for its high malignancy, and conventional chemotherapy drugs, while killing tumor cells, often inflict significant harm on the patient's body. The tumor microenvironment of OS is characterized by high levels of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Leveraging this feature, we have developed Mg-ZIF nanoparticles, which incorporate magnesium (Mg) to confer robust peroxidase (POD)-like enzymatic activity. These Mg-ZIF nanozymes can generate highly lethal superoxide anions within tumor cells in a responsive manner, thereby achieving effective tumor destruction. Both in vitro and in situ OS models have corroborated the anti-tumor efficacy of Mg-ZIF nanozymes, while also validating their biosafety. The design of Mg-ZIF nanozymes opens a new avenue for the treatment of OS, offering a promising therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
Pyroptosis has garnered increasing attention because of its ability to trigger robust antitumor immunity. Pyroptosis is initiated by the activation of inflammasomes, which are regulated by various organelles. The collaboration among organelles offers several protective mechanisms to prevent activation of the inflammasome, thereby limiting the induction of efficient pyroptosis. Herein, a multiorganelle homeostasis disruptor (denoted BLL) is constructed by encapsulating liposomes and bortezomib (BTZ) within a layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanocage to continuously activate inflammasomes for inducing efficient pyroptosis. In lysosomes, the negatively charged liposomes are released to recruit the NLRP3 inflammasomes through electrostatic interactions. ER stress is induced by BTZ to enhance the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Meanwhile, the BLL nanocage exhibited H+-scavenging ability due to the weak alkalinity of LDH, thus disrupting the homeostasis of the lysosome and alleviating the degradation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by lysosomal-associated autophagy. Our results suggest that the BLL nanocage induces homeostatic imbalance in various organelles and efficient pyroptosis. We hope this work can provide new insights into the design of an efficient pyroptosis inducer by disrupting the homeostatic balance of multiple organelles and promote the development of novel antineoplastic platforms.

Abstract
Adverse environmental factors during maternal gestation pose a threat to pregnancy. Environmental factors, particularly nanoparticles, can impact pregnancy by causing damage to the placenta. Compared to early gestation, foetuses in late gestation are more robustly developed and at lower risk of adverse effects from environmental factors. Delivery systems for targeted therapy during pregnancy is predominantly focused on their application in late gestation. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) holds great potential for targeted drug therapy. To evaluate the value of ZIF-8 in targeted treatment of disorders associated with late gestation, it is crucial to investigate the biological effects of ZIF-8 exposure during late gestation. Here, a mouse model exposed to ZIF-8 particles at different doses (5, 10, and 15 mg/kg) during late gestation was constructed. We found that ZIF-8 particles were deposited in the uterus of pregnant mice. ZIF-8 could trigger placental neutrophil aggregation and induce inflammation, which led to trophoblast pyroptosis and impair placental function, adversely affecting the foetus. Neutrophil depletion alleviated placental and foetal damage induced by ZIF-8. This study provides a novel mechanistic view of the reproductive toxicity induced by ZIF-8 and may offer clues to reduce the latent harm of adverse environmental factors to pregnancy.

Abstract
Nanomaterials are widely utilized in several domains, such as everyday life, societal manufacturing, and biomedical applications, which expand the potential for nanomaterials to penetrate biological barriers and interact with cells. Multiple studies have concentrated on the particular or improper utilization of nanomaterials, resulting in cellular death. The primary mode of cell death caused by nanotoxicity is programmable cell death, which includes apoptosis, ferroptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis. Based on our prior publications and latest research, mitochondria have a vital function in facilitating programmed cell death caused by nanomaterials, as well as initiating or transmitting death signal pathways associated with it. Therefore, this review takes mitochondria as the focal point to investigate the internal molecular mechanism of nanomaterial-induced programmed cell death, with the aim of identifying potential targets for prevention and treatment in related studies.

Abstract
Intra-articular injection of drugs is an effective strategy for osteoarthritis (OA) treatment. However, the complex microenvironment and limited joint space result in rapid clearance of drugs. Herein, a nanogel-based strategy is proposed for prolonged drug delivery and microenvironment remodeling. Nanogel is constructed through the functionalization of hyaluronic acid (HA) by amide reaction on the surface of Kartogenin (KGN)-loaded zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (denoted as KZIF@HA). Leveraging the inherent hydrophilicity of HA, KZIF@HA spontaneously forms nanogels, ensuring extended drug release in the OA microenvironment. KZIF@HA exhibits sustained drug release over one month, with low leakage risk from the joint cavity compared to KZIF, enhanced cartilage penetration, and reparative effects on chondrocytes. Notably, KGN released from KZIF@HA serves to promote extracellular matrix (ECM) secretion for hyaline cartilage regeneration. Zn2+ release reverses OA progression by promoting M2 macrophage polarization to establish an anti-inflammatory microenvironment. Ultimately, KZIF@HA facilitates cartilage regeneration and OA alleviation within three months. Transcriptome sequencing validates that KZIF@HA stimulates the polarization of M2 macrophages and secretes IL-10 to inhibit the JNK and ERK pathways, promoting chondrocytes recovery and enhancing ECM remodeling. This pioneering nanogel system offers new therapeutic opportunities for sustained drug release, presenting a significant stride in OA treatment strategies.

Multifaceted Materials for Enhanced Osteogenesis and Antimicrobial Properties on Bioplastic Polyetheretherketone Surfaces: A Review. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:17784-17807. [PMID: 38680314 PMCID: PMC11044237 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c00923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Implant-associated infections and the increasing number of bone implants loosening and falling off after implantation have become urgent global challenges, hence the need for intelligent alternative solutions to combat implant loosening and falling off. The application of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in biomedical and medical therapy has aroused great interest, especially because its elastic modulus close to bone provides an effective alternative to titanium implants, thereby preventing the possibility of bone implants loosening and falling off due to the mismatch of elastic modulus. In this Review, we provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in surface modifications to prevent bone binding deficiency and bacterial infection after implantation of bone implants, starting with inorganics for surface modification, followed by organics that can effectively promote bone integration and antimicrobial action. In addition, surface modifications derived from cells and related products of biological activity have been proposed, and there is increasing evidence of clinical potential. Finally, the advantages and future challenges of surface strategies against medical associated poor osseointegration and infection are discussed, with promising prospects for developing novel osseointegration and antimicrobial PEEK materials.

Abstract
Though immunogenic cell death (ICD) has garnered significant attention in the realm of anticancer therapies, effectively stimulating strong immune responses with minimal side effects in deep-seated tumors remains challenging. Herein, we introduce a novel self-assembled near-infrared-light-activated ruthenium(II) metallacycle, Ru1105 (λem = 1105 nm), as a first example of a Ru(II) supramolecular ICD inducer. Ru1105 synergistically potentiates immunomodulatory responses and reduces adverse effects in deep-seated tumors through multiple regulated approaches, including NIR-light excitation, increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, selective targeting of tumor cells, precision organelle localization, and improved tumor penetration/retention capabilities. Specifically, Ru1105 demonstrates excellent depth-activated ROS production (∼1 cm), strong resistance to diffusion, and anti-ROS quenching. Moreover, Ru1105 exhibits promising results in cellular uptake and ROS generation in cancer cells and multicellular tumor spheroids. Importantly, Ru1105 induces more efficient ICD in an ultralow dose (10 μM) compared to the conventional anticancer agent, oxaliplatin (300 μM). In vivo experiments further confirm Ru1105's potency as an ICD inducer, eliciting CD8+ T cell responses and depleting Foxp3+ T cells with minimal adverse effects. Our research lays the foundation for the design of secure and exceptionally potent metal-based ICD agents in immunotherapy.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy and vaccine development have significantly improved the fight against cancers. Despite these advancements, challenges remain, particularly in the clinical delivery of immunomodulatory compounds. The tumor microenvironment (TME), comprising macrophages, fibroblasts, and immune cells, plays a crucial role in immune response modulation. Nanoparticles, engineered to reshape the TME, have shown promising results in enhancing immunotherapy by facilitating targeted delivery and immune modulation. These nanoparticles can suppress fibroblast activation, promote M1 macrophage polarization, aid dendritic cell maturation, and encourage T cell infiltration. Biomimetic nanoparticles further enhance immunotherapy by increasing the internalization of immunomodulatory agents in immune cells such as dendritic cells. Moreover, exosomes, whether naturally secreted by cells in the body or bioengineered, have been explored to regulate the TME and immune-related cells to affect cancer immunotherapy. Stimuli-responsive nanocarriers, activated by pH, redox, and light conditions, exhibit the potential to accelerate immunotherapy. The co-application of nanoparticles with immune checkpoint inhibitors is an emerging strategy to boost anti-tumor immunity. With their ability to induce long-term immunity, nanoarchitectures are promising structures in vaccine development. This review underscores the critical role of nanoparticles in overcoming current challenges and driving the advancement of cancer immunotherapy and TME modification.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy, a field within immunology that aims to enhance the host's anti-cancer immune response, frequently encounters challenges associated with suboptimal response rates. The presence of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), crucial constituents of the tumor microenvironment (TME), exacerbates this issue by fostering immunosuppression and impeding T cell differentiation and maturation. Consequently, targeting MDSCs has emerged as crucial for immunotherapy aimed at enhancing anti-tumor responses. The development of nanomedicines specifically designed to target MDSCs aims to improve the effectiveness of immunotherapy by transforming immunosuppressive tumors into ones more responsive to immune intervention. This review provides a detailed overview of MDSCs in the TME and current strategies targeting these cells. Also the benefits of nanoparticle-assisted drug delivery systems, including design flexibility, efficient drug loading, and protection against enzymatic degradation, are highlighted. It summarizes advances in nanomedicine targeting MDSCs, covering enhanced treatment efficacy, safety, and modulation of the TME, laying the groundwork for more potent cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
In this work, a promising treatment strategy for triggering robust antitumor immune responses in transarterial chemoembolization of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is presented. The zeolitic imidazolate framework nanoparticles loaded with hypoxia-activated prodrug tirapazamine and immune adjuvant resiquimod facilitated in situ generation of nanovaccine via a facile approach. The nanovaccine can strengthen the ability of killing the liver cancer cells under hypoxic environment, while was capable of improving immunogenic tumor microenvironment and triggering strong antitumor immune responses by increasing the primary and distant intratumoral infiltration of immune cells such as cytotoxic T cells. Moreover, a porous microcarrier, approved by FDA as pharmaceutical excipient, was designed to achieve safe and effective delivery of the nanovaccine via transarterial therapy in rabbit orthotopic VX2 liver cancer model. The microcarrier exhibited the characteristics of excellent drug loading and occlusion of peripheral artery. The collaborative delivery of the microcarrier and nanovaccine demonstrated an exciting inhibitory effect on solid tumors and tumor metastases, which provided a great potential as novel combination therapy for HCC interventional therapy.

Abstract
Chemotherapy remains one of the most widely used cancer treatment modalities in clinical practice. However, the characteristic microenvironment of solid tumors severely limits the anticancer efficacy of chemotherapy. In addition, a single treatment modality or one death pathway reduces the antitumor outcome. Herein, tumor-targeting O2 self-supplied nanomodules (CuS@DOX/CaO2-HA) are proposed that not only alleviate tumor microenvironmental hypoxia to promote the accumulation of chemotherapeutic drugs in tumors but also exert photothermal effects to boost drug release, penetration and combination therapy. CuS@DOX/CaO2-HA consists of copper sulfide (CuS)-loaded calcium peroxide (CaO2) and doxorubicin (DOX), and its surface is further modified with HA. CuS@DOX/CaO2-HA underwent photothermal treatment to release DOX and CaO2. Hyperthermia accelerates drug penetration to enhance chemotherapeutic efficacy. The exposed CaO2 reacts with water to produce Ca2+, H2O2 and O2, which sensitizes cells to chemotherapy through mitochondrial damage caused by calcium overload and a reduction in drug efflux via the alleviation of hypoxia. Moreover, under near infrared (NIR) irradiation, CuS@DOX/CaO2-HA initiates a pyroptosis-like cell death process in addition to apoptosis. In vivo, CuS@DOX/CaO2-HA demonstrated high-performance antitumor effects. This study provides a new strategy for synergistic enhancement of chemotherapy in hypoxic tumor therapy via combination therapy and multiple death pathways.

Abstract
Pyroptosis is an effective anti-tumor strategy. However, monometallic pyroptosis biotuners have not been explored until now. Here, we discover for the first time that biodegradable monometallic Al can act as a pyroptosis biotuner for tumor therapy. pH-sensitive Al nanoparticles (Al@P) are obtained by equipping polyethylene glycol-b-(poly(methyl methacrylate)-co-poly(4-vinylpyridine), which can exert their effect at the tumor site without affecting normal cells. The H2 and Al3+ release by Al@P in the acidic environment of tumors disrupts the redox balance and ionic homeostasis in tumor cells, thus generating large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to caspase-1 activation, gasdermin D cleavage, and IL-1β/LDH release, which induces canonical pyroptotic death. Meanwhile, the prodrug Doxorubicin (Pro-DOX) is successfully loaded onto Al@P (Al@P-P) and can be activated by ROS to release DOX in the tumor cells, thus further improving the tumor-killing efficiency. Ultimately, Al@P-P is degradable and exhibits efficient tumor inhibition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains suboptimal, characterized by high recurrence and metastasis rates. Although metalloimmunotherapy has shown potential in combating tumor proliferation, recurrence and metastasis, current apoptosis-based metalloimmunotherapy fails to elicit sufficient immune response for HCC. RESULTS A smart responsive bimetallic nanovaccine was constructed to induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) through pyroptosis and enhance the efficacy of the cGAS-STING pathway. The nanovaccine was composed of manganese-doped mesoporous silica as a carrier, loaded with sorafenib (SOR) and modified with MIL-100 (Fe), where Fe3+, SOR, and Mn2+ were synchronized and released into the tumor with the help of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Afterward, Fe3+ worked synergistically with SOR-induced immunogenic pyroptosis (via both the classical and nonclassical signaling pathways), causing the outflow of abundant immunogenic factors, which contributes to dendritic cell (DC) maturation, and the exposure of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Subsequently, the exposed dsDNA and Mn2+ jointly activated the cGAS-STING pathway and induced the release of type I interferons, which further led to DC maturation. Moreover, Mn2+-related T1 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to visually evaluate the smart response functionality of the nanovaccine. CONCLUSION The utilization of metallic nanovaccines to induce pyroptosis-mediated immune activation provides a promising paradigm for HCC treatment.

Red blood cell membrane-coated functionalized Cu-doped metal organic framework nanoformulations as a biomimetic platform for improved chemo-/chemodynamic/photothermal synergistic therapy. Int J Pharm 2024; 652:123811. [PMID: 38237709 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.123811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 12/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
Nanoformulations for combining chemotherapy, chemodynamic therapy, and photothermal therapy have enormous potential in tumor treatment. Coating nanoformulations with cell membranes endows them with homologous cellular mimicry, enabling nanoformulations to acquire new functions and properties, including homologous targeting and long circulation in vivo, and can enhance internalization by homologous cancer cells. Herein, we fused multifunctional biomimetic nanoformulations based on Cu-doped zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8). Hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT), a clinical anti-tumor drug, was encapsulated into ZIF-8, which was subsequently coated with polydopamine (PDA) and red blood cell membrane. The as-fabricated biomimetic nanoformulations showed an enhanced cell uptake in vitro and the potential to prolong blood circulation in vivo, producing effective synergistic chemotherapy, chemodynamic therapy, and photothermal therapy under the 808 nm laser irradiation. Together, the biomimetic nanoformulations showed a prolonged blood circulation and evasion of immune recognition in vivo to provide a bio-inspired strategy which may have the potential for the multi-synergistic therapy of breast cancer.

Abstract
With the rapid development of external minimally invasive or noninvasive therapeutic modalities, ultrasound-based sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is a new alternative for treating deep tumors. However, inadequate sonosensitizer efficiency and poor biosecurity limit clinical applications. In this study, we prepared an oxygen-vacancy-engineered W18 O49-x nanobrush with a band gap of 2.79 eV for highly efficient SDT using a simple solvothermal method. The suitable band structures of the W18 O49-x nanobrush endows it with the potential to simultaneously produce singlet oxygen (1 O2 ), superoxide anions (⋅O2 - ), and hydroxyl radicals (⋅OH) under ultrasound irradiation. Additionally, abundant oxygen vacancies that serve as further charge traps that inhibit electron-hole recombination are incidentally introduced through one-step thermal reduction. Collectively, the in vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that the oxygen-vacancy-engineered W18 O49-x nanobrush delivers highly efficient reactive oxygen species (ROS) for SDT in a very biosafe manner. Overall, this study provides a new avenue for discovering and designing inorganic nanosonosensitizers with enhanced therapeutic efficiencies for use in SDT.

Abstract
Pyroptosis, as an inflammatory cell death, has been widely applied in tumor therapy, but its systemic adverse reactions caused by nonspecific activation still seriously hinder its application. Herein, a near-infrared (NIR) light-triggered thermoresponsive pyroptosis strategy is designed for on-demand initiation of pyroptosis and synergistic tumor immunotherapy. Specifically, glucose oxidase (GOx) loaded and heat-sensitive material p(OEOMA-co-MEMA) (PCM) modified mesoporous Pt nanoparticles (abbreviated as PCM Pt/GOx) are prepared as the mild-temperature triggered pyroptosis inducer. Pt nanoparticles can not only serve as nanozyme with catalase-like activity to promote GOx catalytic reaction, but also act as photothermal agent to achieve mild-temperature photothermal therapy (PTT) and thermoresponsive GOx release on-demand under the irradiation of NIR light, thereby activating and promoting pyroptosis. In vitro and in vivo experiments prove that NIR light-triggered thermoresponsive pyroptosis system exhibits excellent antitumor immunity activity as well as significantly inhibits tumor growth. The precise control of pyroptosis by NIR light as well as pyroptosis cooperated with mild-temperature PTT for synergistically attenuated tumor immunotherapy are reported for the first time. This work provides a new method to initiate pyroptosis on demand, which is of great significance for spatiotemporally controllable pyroptosis and immunotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical cancer, a pernicious gynecological malignancy, causes the mortality of hundreds of thousands of females worldwide. Despite a considerable decline in mortality, the surging incidence rate among younger women has raised serious concerns. Immortality is the most important characteristic of tumor cells, hence the carcinogenesis of cervical cancer cells pivotally requires compromising with cell death mechanisms. METHODS The current study comprehensively reviewed the mechanisms of non-apoptotic cell death programs to provide possible disease management strategies. RESULTS Comprehensive evidence has stated that focusing on necroptosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy for disease management is associated with significant limitations such as insufficient understanding, contradictory functions, dependence on disease stage, and complexity of intracellular pathways. However, ferroptosis represents a predictable role in cervix carcinogenesis, and ferroptosis-related genes demonstrate a remarkable correlation with patient survival and clinical outcomes. CONCLUSION Ferroptosis may be an appropriate option for disease management strategies from predicting prognosis to treatment.

Abstract
Endogenous essential metal ions play an important role in many life processes, especially in tumor development and immune response. The approval of various metallodrugs for tumor therapy brings more attention to the antitumor effect of metal ions. With the deepening understanding of the regulation mechanisms of metal ion homeostasis in vivo, breaking intracellular metal ion homeostasis becomes a new means to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells and activate antitumor immune response. Diverse nanomedicines with the loading of small molecular ion regulators or metal ions have been developed to disrupt metal ion homeostasis in tumor cells, with higher safety and efficiency than free small molecular ion regulators or metal compounds. This comprehensive review focuses on the latest progress of various intracellular metal ion homeostasis regulation-based nanomedicines in tumor therapy including calcium ion (Ca2+ ), ferrous ion (Fe2+ ), cuprous ion (Cu+ ), managanese ion (Mn2+ ), and zinc ion (Zn2+ ). The physiological functions and homeostasis regulation processes of ions are summarized to guide the design of metal ion regulation-based nanomedicines. Then the antitumor mechanisms of various ions-based nanomedicines and some efficient synergistic therapies are highlighted. Finally, the challenges and future developments of ion regulation-based antitumor therapy are also discussed, hoping to provide a reference for finding more effective metal ions and synergistic therapies.

Abstract
The treatment of cancer patients has been mainly followed using chemotherapy and it is a gold standard in improving prognosis and survival rate of patients. Oxaliplatin (OXA) is a third-platinum anti-cancer agent that reduces DNA synthesis in cancer cells to interfere with their growth and cell cycle progression. In spite of promising results of using OXA in cancer chemotherapy, the process of drug resistance has made some challenges. OXA is commonly applied in treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) as a malignancy of gastrointestinal tract and when CRC cells increase their proliferation and metastasis, they can obtain resistance to OXA chemotherapy. A number of molecular factors such as CHK2, SIRT1, c-Myc, LATS2 and FOXC1 have been considered as regulators of OXA response in CRC cells. The non-coding RNAs are able to function as master regulator of other molecular pathways in modulating OXA resistance. There is a close association between molecular mechanisms such as apoptosis, autophagy, glycolysis and EMT with OXA resistance, so that apoptosis inhibition, pro-survival autophagy induction and stimulation of EMT and glycolysis can induce OXA resistance in CRC cells. A number of anti-tumor compounds including astragaloside IV, resveratrol and nobiletin are able to enhance OXA sensitivity in CRC cells. Nanoparticles for increasing potential of OXA in CRC suppression and reversing OXA resistance have been employed in cancer chemotherapy. These subjects are covered in this review article to shed light on molecular factors resulting in OXA resistance.

Abstract
A wearable biological patch capable of producing multiple responses to light and electricity without interfering with daily activities is highly desired for skin cancer treatment, but remains a key challenge. Herein, the skin-mountable electrostimulation-augmented photothermal patch (eT-patch) comprising transparent ionic gel with MXene (Ti3C2Tx) doping is developed and applied for the treatment of melanoma under photostimulation at 0.5 W/cm2. The eT-patch designed has superior photothermal and electrical characteristics owing to ionic gels doped with MXene which provides high photothermal conversion efficiency and electrical conductivity as a medium. Simultaneously, the ionic gel-based eT-patch having excellent optical transparency actualizes real-time observation of skin response and melanoma treatment process under photothermal and electrical stimulation (PES) co-therapy. Systematical cellular study on anti-tumor mechanism of the eT-patch under PES treatment revealed that eT-patch under PES treatment can synergically trigger cancer cell apoptosis and pyroptosis, which together lead to the death of melanoma cells. Due to the obvious advantages of relatively safe and less side effects in healthy organs, the developed eT-patch provides a promising cost-effective therapeutic strategy for skin tumors and will open a new avenue for biomedical applications of ionic gels.

Abstract
This review delves into the potential of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanoparticles in augmenting the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy, with a special focus on the delivery of programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD-1) inhibitors. The multifunctional nature of ZIF-8 nanoparticles as drug carriers is emphasized, with their ability to encapsulate a range of therapeutic agents, including PD-1 inhibitors, and facilitate their targeted delivery to tumor locations. By manipulating the pore size and surface characteristics of ZIF-8 nanoparticles, controlled drug release can be realized. The strategic use of ZIF-8 nanoparticles to deliver PD-1 inhibitors presents a precise and targeted modality for cancer treatment, reducing off-target impacts and enhancing therapeutic effectiveness. This combined strategy addresses the existing challenges and constraints of current immunotherapy techniques, with the ultimate goal of enhancing patient outcomes in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) relying on Fenton reaction has emerged as a promising strategy for tumor treatment. However, its clinical efficacy is hindered by the inadequate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the potential cytotoxicity towards normal cells. To address these challenges, we have successfully developed a multistage augmented cancer therapy system based on bimetallic metal-organic framework (BMOF) that amplifies ROS and facilitates tumor-specific therapeutic effects. By employing a simple one-pot self-assembly approach, we synthesized SVK3@ZnCo-ZIF in which sulfonated vitamin K3 (SVK3) was encapsulated within ZnCo-ZIF BMOF. The results revealed that the incorporation of Zn atoms significantly diluted the Fenton activity of Co atoms towards normal cells. Notably, SVK3@ZnCo-ZIF underwent pH-controlled decomposition triggered by the tumor microenvironment (TME), thus releasing SVK3, Co2+ and Zn2+. Specifically, the H2O2 levels in tumors was effectively elevated by the interaction of SVK3 with NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO-1). It thus enhanced the Fenton activity of Co2+. Moreover, the release of Zn2+ ions can induce cellular dysfunction and mitochondrial damage, thereby promoting the generation of ROS and subsequent cell death. The synergistic combination of CDT, SVK3 chemotherapy, and Zn2+-interfered therapy greatly facilitated apoptosis of tumor cells. Collectively, our investigations demonstrate the efficacy of such system in selectively inducing toxicity in cancer cells while minimizing detrimental effects on normal cells.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2305567.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been widely praised as nanoadjuvants in vaccine/tumor immunotherapy thanks to their excellent biocompatibility, easy-to-modify surface, adjustable particle size, and remarkable immuno-enhancing activity. However, the application of MSNs is still greatly limited by some severe challenges including the unclear and complicated relationships of structure and immune effect. Herein, three commonly used MSNs with different skeletons including MSN with tetrasulfide bonds (TMSN), MSN containing ethoxy framework (EMSN), and pure -Si-O-Si- framework of MSN (MSN) are comprehensively compared to study the impact of chemical construction on immune effect. The results fully demonstrate that the three MSNs have great promise in improving cellular immunity for tumor immunotherapy. Moreover, the TMSN performs better than the other two MSNs in antigen loading, cellular uptake, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, lymph node targeting, immune activation, and therapeutic efficiency. The findings provide a new paradigm for revealing the structure-function relationship of mesoporous silica nanoadjuvants, paving the way for their future clinical application.
