Intratumoral Cancer Chemotherapy with a Carrier-Based Immunogenic Cell-Death Eliciting Platinum (IV) Agent.

ABSTRACT: A carrier-based, immunogenic cell death (ICD)-eliciting platinum(IV) chemotherapeutic agent was synthesized via complexation between an axially derivatized Pt(IV)-tocopherol and hyaluronan (HA)-tocopherol nanocarrier. The resultant HA-Pt(IV) complex demonstrated antiproliferative activity and induced calreticulin translocation, an indicator of ICD, in murine and human head and neck cancer (HNC) cells. The intratumorally administered HA-Pt(IV) treatments were tolerable and efficacious in both immunocompetent and immunodeficient mice with HNC, partially because of the direct cytotoxicity. Superior efficacy and survival were observed in the immunocompetent group, suggesting a possible Pt(IV)-induced immunological response, which would only manifest in animals with an intact immune system. Subsequent imaging of tumor tissues demonstrated increased macrophage infiltration in the HA-Pt(IV)-treated tumors compared to the nontreated controls and the cisplatin-treated tumors, suggesting favorable inflammatory activation. RNA sequencing of HA-Pt(IV)-treated tumors indicated that carbohydrate and vitamin metabolisms were the most important Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways, and molecular function, biological process, and cellular component were highly enriched gene ontology categories.

Project description:Rationale: The development of a highly effective and tumor-specific therapeutic strategy, which can act against the primary tumor and also condition the host immune system to eliminate distant tumors, remains a clinical challenge. Methods: Herein, we demonstrate a facile yet versatile ZnO-capping and Doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded multifunctional nanocomposite (AuNP@mSiO2@DOX-ZnO) that integrates photothermal properties of gold nanoparticles (NPs), pH-responsive properties and preferential selectivity to tumor cells of ZnO QDs and chemotherapeutic agent into a single NP. The photothermal performance, pH-triggered release and preferential phagocytic ability were assessed. The induced anti-tumor immunity was determined by analyzing immune cell profile in tumor in vivo and molecular mechanism were identified by detecting expression of immunogenic cell death (ICD) markers in vitro. Moreover, mice models of unilateral and bilateral subcutaneous melanoma and lung metastasis were established to evaluate the antitumor effects. Results: As an efficient drug carrier, ZnO-capped NPs guarantee a high DOX payload and an in vitro, efficient release of at pH 5.0. In murine melanoma models, the nanocomposite can significantly inhibit tumor growth for a short period upon low-power laser irradiation. Importantly, ZnO NPs not only demonstrate preferential selectivity for melanoma cells but can also induce ICD. Meanwhile, AuNP@mSiO2-based photothermal therapy (PTT) and DOX are directly cytotoxic towards cancer cells and demonstrate an elevated ICD effect. The induced ICD promotes maturation of dendritic cells, further stimulating the infiltration of effector T cells into tumor sites, preventing tumor growth and distant lung metastases. Conclusions: This study highlights the novel mechanism of ZnO-triggered anti-tumor immunity via inducing ICD. Additionally, we shed light on the multifunctionality of nanocomposites in delivering localized skin tumor therapy as well as inhibiting metastatic growth, which holds great promise in clinical applications.

Project description:IntroductionChemo-immunotherapy based on inducing tumor immunogenic cell death (ICD)with chemotherapy drugs has filled the gaps between traditional chemotherapy and immunotherapy. It is verified that paclitaxel (PTX) can induce breast tumor ICD. From this basis, a kind of nanoparticle that can efficiently deliver different drug components simultaneously is constructed. The purpose of this study is for the sake of exploring the scheme of chemotherapy-induced ICD combined with other immunotherapy to enhance tumor immunogenicity and inhibit the growth, metastasis, and recurrence of breast tumors, so as to provide a research basis for solving the tough problem of breast cancer treatment.MethodsNanomedicine loaded with PTX, small interference RNA that suppresses CD47 expression (CD47siRNA, siCD47), and immunomodulator R848 were prepared by the double emulsification method. The hydrodynamic diameter and zeta potential of NP/PTX/siCD47/R848 were characterized. Established the tumor-bearing mice model of mouse breast cancer cell line (4T1) in situ and observed the effect of intravenous injection of NP/PTX/siCD47/R848 on the growth of 4T1 tumor in situ. Flow cytometry was used to detect the effect of drugs on tumor immune cells.ResultsNP/PTX/siCD47/R848 nano-drug with tumor therapeutic potential were successfully prepared by double emulsification method, with particle size of 121.5 ± 4.5 nm and surface potential of 36.1 ± 2.5 mV. The calreticulin on the surface of cell membrane and extracellular ATP or HMGB1 of 4T1 cells increased through treatment with NPs. NP/PTX-treated tumor cells could cause activation of BMDCs and BMDMs. After intravenous injection, NP/PTX could quickly reach the tumor site and accumulate for 24 h. The weight and volume of tumor in situ in the breast cancer model mice injected with nanomedicine through the tail vein were significantly lower than those in the PBS group. The ratio of CD8+/CD4+ T cells in the tumor microenvironment and the percentage of dendritic cells in peripheral blood increased significantly in breast cancer model mice injected with nano-drugs through the tail vein.DiscussionBriefly, the chemotherapeutic drug paclitaxel can induce breast cancer to induce ICD. The nanomedicine which can deliver PTX, CD47siRNA, and R848 at the same time was prepared by double emulsification. NP/PTX/siCD47/R848 nano-drug can be enriched in the tumor site. The experiment of 4T1 cell tumor-bearing mice shows that the nano-drug can enhance tumor immunogenicity and inhibit breast tumor growth, which provides a new scheme for breast cancer treatment.
