Sonodynamic biodegradable pseduo-conjugate polymer delivery of warfarin for inducing generation of cancerous ROS and ferroptosis
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer, characterized by low immune response rates and high recurrence. This underscores an urgent need for more effective treatment strategies for liver cancer patients. Ferroptosis, a type of cell death associated with iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, has shown significant potential in HCC treatment. However, the efficacy of this monotherapy for tumor treatment remains limited. Enhancing reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and lipid peroxide formation by inhibiting the tumor cell antioxidant system has emerged as a promising anti-tumor strategy. In this study, we developed a nanoplatform, NP (nanoparticle)-BSD@WFR, specifically tailored for HCC treatment. This system combines a biodegradable sonodynamic polymer (BSD) with warfarin (WFR), a VKORC1L1 inhibitor that prevents intracellular peroxide elimination and enhances ferroptosis. Under ultrasound irradiation, NP-BSD@WFR generates ROS and releases WFR, directly targeting cancer cells. Concurrently, ROS and WFR synergistically enhance lipid peroxide production in cancer cells, triggering ferroptosis and activating the immune system. Animal studies further demonstrate that combining sonodynamic therapy with WFR-induced ferroptosis produces a synergistic anti-tumor effect, promoting a strong immune response in vivo. This study introduces an innovative therapeutic approach combining sonodynamic therapy and WFR for HCC treatment and highlights its promising efficacy.
