Here, we designed a liposome nanotheranostic platform that combined cisplatin with decitabine to simultaneously activate the pyroptosis and immunogenic cell death in an effective delivery manner. Specifically, we prepared the targeted liposomal therapeutics (NPCD@ALN). NPCD@ALN effectively accumulated at the bone lesion induced by OS <em>in vivo</em>. Meanwhile, NPCD@ALN released NPCD and ALN when reaching the acidic tumor microenvironment, thus the charge reversing from negative to positive and enabling the better endocytosis of NPCD. NPCD activated caspase-3 to cleave GSDME into pore-forming GSDME-N terminal, letting the cancer cell release pro-inflammatory factors into the extracellular microenvironment. Subsequently, the released inflammatory cytokines promoted the maturation of antigen-presenting cells, the infiltration of cytotoxic T cells and the remodeling of immunosuppressive microenvironment. Eventually, NPCD triggered pyroptosis and immunogenic cell death and evoked the adaptive immune response to realize the powerful synergistic chemotherapy and immunotherapy for osteosarcoma.

Nonetheless, the efficacy of this approach is constrained by low anti-tumor immunity and restricted intratumoral delivery of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in solid tumors. In this study, a pH-responsive nanocomplex (BRM/PTX/aPD-1) was developed for the active transport of aPD-1 and PTX, thereby enhancing cancer chemoimmunotherapy. BRM/PTX/aPD-1 was prepared by using dynamic and reversible benzoic-imine bonds cross-linked bovine albumin (BSA), anti-PD-1 antibody (aPD-1) and PTX-loaded polylysine dendrimers. In the acidic tumor microenvironment, BRM/PTX/aPD-1 exhibited a charge reversal from negative to positive due to the hydrolysis of the β-carboxylic amide structure, which triggered cation-induced transcytosis. This process enabled active transport of adequate amounts of BRM/PTX/aPD-1 to the tumor parenchyma, where it was degraded by further hydrolysis of benzoic-imine bonds and effectively released aPD-1 and PTX. The nanocomplex demonstrated notable intratumoral permeability both <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo</em>, particularly enhancing the delivery of aPD-1. Additionally, the nanocomplex showed robust anti-tumor activity in an orthotopic breast cancer model, significantly inhibiting tumor proliferation and preventing the progression of lung metastasis. This pH-responsive nanocomplex presents a promising platform for improved intratumoral delivery of ICIs and emerges as a practical solution for overcoming tumor immunosuppression.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":395,"journal":{"name":"Nano Today","volume":"62 ","pages":"Article 102710"},"PeriodicalIF":13.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143621149","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
