Dual-binding nanoparticles improve the killing effect of T cells on solid tumor.

ABSTRACT: Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) was one of the most promising anti-tumor modalities that has been confirmed to be especially effective in treating hematological malignancies. However, the clinical efficacy of ACT on solid tumor was greatly hindered by the insufficient tumor-infiltration of cytotoxic CD8 + T cells. Herein, we constructed a nanoplatform termed dual-binding magnetic nanoparticles (DBMN) that comprised PEG-maleimide (Mal), hyaluronic acid (HA) and Fe₃O₄ for adoptive T cell-modification and ACT-sensitization. After a simple co-incubation, DBMN was anchored onto the cell membrane (Primary linking) via Michael addition reaction between the Mal and the sulfhydryl groups on the surface of T cells, generating magnetized T cells (DBMN-T).
