Organic small molecule for malignant tumor photothermal / photodynamic and immunotherapy via apoptosis and ferroptosis
Photoimmunotherapy holds significant promise for addressing diverse malignant tumors, at present, its efficacy needs to be improved. Herein, a light-triggered IC8 nanoparticles (IC8 NPs) were designed and synthesized which possess excellent biocompatibility, stability and upon the NIR irradiation has superior photothermal convert efficiency (PCE = 65.27 %) and Type I photodynamic. The enrichment of hyperthermia and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes significant oxidative cellular damage and triggers severe apoptosis. In another aspect, the glutathione (GSH) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) level down-regulated can indirectly upregulate the level of lipid peroxides (LPO) and promote ferroptosis. Moreover, IC8 NPs + NIR could not only significantly ablate primary tumor but also induce immunogenic cell death (ICD), which promote maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) and activate effector cells that robustly evoke the antitumor immune responses for distant tumors treatment. This study offers a new nanoplatform as photothermal/photodynamic and photoimmunotherapy to improve malignant tumor therapy.
期刊介绍:
European Polymer Journal is dedicated to publishing work on fundamental and applied polymer chemistry and macromolecular materials. The journal covers all aspects of polymer synthesis, including polymerization mechanisms and chemical functional transformations, with a focus on novel polymers and the relationships between molecular structure and polymer properties. In addition, we welcome submissions on bio-based or renewable polymers, stimuli-responsive systems and polymer bio-hybrids. European Polymer Journal also publishes research on the biomedical application of polymers, including drug delivery and regenerative medicine. The main scope is covered but not limited to the following core research areas:
Polymer synthesis and functionalization
• Novel synthetic routes for polymerization, functional modification, controlled/living polymerization and precision polymers.
Stimuli-responsive polymers
• Including shape memory and self-healing polymers.
Supramolecular polymers and self-assembly
• Molecular recognition and higher order polymer structures.
Renewable and sustainable polymers
• Bio-based, biodegradable and anti-microbial polymers and polymeric bio-nanocomposites.
Polymers at interfaces and surfaces
• Chemistry and engineering of surfaces with biological relevance, including patterning, antifouling polymers and polymers for membrane applications.
Biomedical applications and nanomedicine
• Polymers for regenerative medicine, drug delivery molecular release and gene therapy
The scope of European Polymer Journal no longer includes Polymer Physics.
