Abstract
Immuno-stimulative effect of chemotherapy (ISECT) is recognized as a potential alternative to conventional immunotherapies, however, the clinical application is constrained by its inefficiency. Metronomic chemotherapy, though designed to overcome these limitations, offers inconsistent results, with effectiveness varying based on cancer types, stages, and patient-specific factors. In parallel, a wealth of preclinical nanomaterials holds considerable promise for ISECT improvement by modulating the cancer-immunity cycle. In the area of biomedical nanomaterials, current literature reviews mainly concentrate on a specific category of nanomaterials and nanotechnological perspectives, while two essential issues are still lacking, i.e., a comprehensive analysis addressing the causes for ISECT inefficiency and a thorough summary elaborating the nanomaterials for ISECT improvement. This review thus aims to fill these gaps and catalyze further development in this field. For the first time, this review comprehensively discusses the causes of ISECT inefficiency. It then meticulously categorizes six types of nanomaterials for improving ISECT. Subsequently, practical strategies are further proposed for addressing inefficient ISECT, along with a detailed discussion on exemplary nanomedicines. Finally, this review provides insights into the challenges and perspectives for improving chemo-immunotherapy by innovations in nanomaterials.

Ren J, Qiao Y, Jin L, Mao C, Wang C, Wu S, Zheng Y, Li Z, Cui Z, Jiang H, Zhu S, Liu X. A Smart Bacteria-Capture-Killing Vector for Effectively Treating Osteomyelitis Through Synergy Under Microwave Therapy. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2307406. [PMID: 38009734 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202307406] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2023] [Revised: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/29/2023]
Abstract
Osteomyelitis caused by deep tissue infections is difficult to cure through phototherapy due to the poor penetration depth of the light. Herein, Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH nanorod composites (Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH) with nanoscale tip convex structures are successfully fabricated as a microwave-responsive smart bacteria-capture-killing vector. Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH exhibited excellent magnetic targeting and bacteria-capturing ability due to its magnetism and high selectivity affinity to the amino groups on the surface of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Under microwave irradiation, Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH efficiently treated S. aureus-infected osteomyelitis through the synergistic effects of microwave thermal therapy, microwave dynamic therapy, and copper ion therapy. It is calculated the electric field intensity in various regions of Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH under microwave irradiation, demonstrating that it obtained the highest electric field intensity on the surface of copper nanoparticles of Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH due to its high-curvature tips and metallic properties. This led to copper nanoparticles attracted more charged particles compared with other areas in Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH. These charges are easier to escape from the high curvature surface of Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH, and captured by adsorbed oxygen, resulting in the generation of reactive oxygen species. The Cu/C/Fe3O4-COOH designed in this study is expected to provide insight into the treatment of deep tissue infections under the irradiation of microwave.

Ultrasound and defect engineering-enhanced nanozyme with high laccase-like activity for oxidation and detection of phenolic compounds and adrenaline. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 465:133126. [PMID: 38056252 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.133126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023]
Abstract
Perusing metal-based redox nanozyme offers new opportunity for pollutant removal and biosensor, but ultrasound (US)-driven laccase-like nanozyme remains a significant challenge, especially in combination with defect engineering strategy. Herein, the Cu2Ov@Ce-TCPP was synthesized by doping Ce3+ on the surface of Cu2O nanocube and then coating with the porphyrin sonosensitizer. The Ce-doped porphyrin metal-structure in nanozyme was demonstrated to generate oxygen vacancy defects, which could obviously promote the laccase-like activity of Cu2Ov@Ce-TCPP nanozyme under US. XPS characterization and density functional theory (DFT) theoretical calculation revealed that the ultrasonic stimulation is beneficial to accelerate the electron transfer rate and O2 adsorption to improve catalytic activity, and Cu2Ov@Ce-TCPP nanozyme exhibits low adsorption energy and activation energy due to the presence of oxygen defect site, resulting in high laccase-like activity. The interaction between Ce atom and porphyrin structure also improved the sonocatalytic ability of the nanozyme. Meanwhile, Cu2Ov@Ce-TCPP nanozyme has been used for detecting and degrading a series of phenolic compounds. The detection adrenaline method has a linear range of 3.3-1000 μM and a detection limit as low as 0.96 μM with good reproducibility. The developed US-enhancing and recyclable laccase-like nanozyme system provides a promising strategy for the oxidation and detection of phenolic compounds.

[PMID: 37820981 DOI: 10.1016/j.addr.2023.115110] [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: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 10/01/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023]
Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has been developed as a promising alternative therapeutic modality for cancer treatment, involving the synergetic application of sonosensitizers and low-intensity ultrasound. However, the antitumor efficacy of SDT is significantly limited due to the poor performance of conventional sonosensitizers in vivo and the constrained tumor microenvironment (TME). Recent breakthroughs in lipid bilayer-based nanovesicles (LBBNs), including multifunctional liposomes, exosomes, and isolated cellular membranes, have brought new insights into the advancement of SDT. Despite their distinct sources and preparation methods, the lipid bilayer structure in common allows them to be functionalized in many comparable ways to serve as ideal nanocarriers against challenges arising from the tumor-specific sonosensitizer delivery and the complicated TME. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of the recent advances in LBBN-based SDT, with particular attention on how LBBNs can be engineered to improve the delivery efficiency of sonosensitizers and overcome physical, biological, and immune barriers within the TME for enhanced sonodynamic cancer therapy. We anticipate that this review will offer valuable guidance in the construction of LBBN-based nanosonosensitizers and contribute to the development of advanced strategies for next-generation sonodynamic cancer therapy.
