Glycan targeting nanoparticle for photodynamic immunotherapy of melanoma.

ABSTRACT: Interaction between tumour cells and macrophages enables cancer cells to evade immune detection and clearance by interfering with macrophage phagocytosis. The anti-phagocytic signals regulated by anti-phagocytic proteins are termed "don't eat me" signals; these signals include sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-type lectin-10 (Siglec-10) and the recently revealed CD24 immune checkpoint (ICP). In this study, we demonstrate that targeting a specific glycan on CD24 exhibits the potential to inhibit ICP. Sambucus nigra agglutinin (SNA), a sialic acid-binding lectin, was employed to block CD24 and to enhance phagocytosis in melanoma tumours. In addition, we prepared SNA-conjugated hollow gold-iron oxide nanoparticles for photothermal therapy of tumours. Our findings show that the combination treatment of SNA-conjugated photothermal nanoparticles and near-infrared exposure successfully augments tumour cell phagocytosis both in vitro and in vivo models.

A targeting black phosphorus nanoparticle based immune cells nano-regulator for photodynamic/photothermal and photo-immunotherapy.

Project description:Photo-immunotherapy is a novel therapeutic approach against malignant tumors with minimal invasiveness. Herein, a targeting multifunctional black phosphorus (BP) nanoparticle, modified by PEGylated hyaluronic acid (HA), was designed for photothermal/photodynamic/photo-immunotherapy. In vitro and in vivo assays indicated that HA-BP nanoparticles possess excellent biocompatibility, stability, and sufficient therapeutic efficacy in the combined therapy of photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) for cancer therapy. Moreover, the results of in vitro showed that HA-BP down-regulated the expression of CD206 (M2 macrophage marker) by 42.3% and up-regulated the ratio of CD86（M1 macrophage marker）by 59.6%, indicating that HA-BP nanoparticles have functions in remodeling tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) phenotype (from pro-tumor M2 TAMs to anti-tumor M1 macrophages). Fluorescence (FL) and photoacoustic (PA) multimodal imaging confirmed the selective accumulation of HA-BP in tumor site via both CD44+ mediated active targeting and passive EPR effect. In vitro and in vivo studies suggested that the combined therapy of PDT, PTT and immunotherapy using HA-BP could not only significantly inhibit original tumor but also induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) and release Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which could induce maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) and activate effector cells that robustly evoke the antitumor immune responses for cancer treatment. This study expands the biomedical application of BP nanoparticles and displays the potential of modified BP as a multifunctional therapeutic platform for the future cancer therapy.

Nanoparticle Targeting of Neutrophils for Improved Cancer Immunotherapy.

Project description:Cancer immunotherapy using tumor-specific monoclonal antibodies presents a novel approach for cancer treatment. A monoclonal antibody TA99 specific for gp75 antigen of melanoma initiates neutrophil recruitment in tumor responsible for cancer therapy. Here, a strategy is reported for hijacking neutrophils in vivo using nanoparticles (NPs) to deliver therapeutics into tumor. In a mouse model of melanoma, it is shown that systemically delivered albumin NPs increase in tumor when TA99 antibody is injected; and the NP tumor accumulation is mediated by neutrophils. After the administration of pyropheophorbide-a loaded albumin NPs and TA99, photodynamic therapy significantly suppresses the tumor growth and increases mouse survival compared with treatment with the NPs or TA99. The study reveals a new avenue to treat cancer by NP hitchhiking of immune systems to enhance delivery of therapeutics into tumor sites.

A mitochondria-localized iridium(iii) photosensitizer for two-photon photodynamic immunotherapy against melanoma.

Project description:Conventional photodynamic therapy mainly causes a therapeutic effect on the primary tumor through the localized generation of reactive oxygen species, while metastatic tumors remain poorly affected. Complementary immunotherapy is effective in eliminating small, non-localized tumors distributed across multiple organs. Here, we report the Ir(iii) complex Ir-pbt-Bpa as a highly potent immunogenic cell death inducing photosensitizer for two-photon photodynamic immunotherapy against melanoma. Ir-pbt-Bpa can produce singlet oxygen and superoxide anion radicals upon light irradiation, causing cell death by a combination of ferroptosis and immunogenic cell death. In a mouse model with two physically separated melanoma tumors, although only one of the primary tumors was irradiated, a strong tumor reduction of both tumors was observed. Upon irradiation, Ir-pbt-Bpa not only induced the immune response of CD8+ T cells and the depletion of regulatory T cells, but also caused an increase in the number of the effector memory T cells to achieve long-term anti-tumor immunity.

Recent progress in targeting the sialylated glycan-SIGLEC axis in cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:Malignant tumors are complex structures composed of cancer cells and tumor microenvironmental cells. In this complex structure, cells cross-talk and interact, thus jointly promoting cancer development and metastasis. Recently, immunoregulatory molecule-based cancer immunotherapy has greatly improved treatment efficacy for solid cancers, thus enabling some patients to achieve persistent responses or cure. However, owing to the development of drug-resistance and the low response rate, immunotherapy against the available targets PD-1/PD-L1 or CTLA-4 has limited benefits. Although combination therapies have been proposed to enhance the response rate, severe adverse effects are observed. Thus, alternative immune checkpoints must be identified. The SIGLECs are a family of immunoregulatory receptors (known as glyco-immune checkpoints) discovered in recent years. This review systematically describes the molecular characteristics of the SIGLECs, and discusses recent progress in areas including synthetic ligands, monoclonal antibody inhibitors, and Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells, with a focus on available strategies for blocking the sialylated glycan-SIGLEC axis. Targeting glyco-immune checkpoints can expand the scope of immune checkpoints and provide multiple options for new drug development.

Review: Organic nanoparticle based active targeting for photodynamic therapy treatment of breast cancer cells.

Project description:Targeted Photodynamic therapy (TPDT) is a non-invasive and site-specific treatment modality, which has been utilized to eradicate cancer tumour cells with photoactivated chemicals or photosensitizers (PSs), in the presence of laser light irradiation and molecular tissue oxygen. Breast cancer is the commonest cancer among women worldwide and is currently treated using conventional methods such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery. Despite the recent advancements made in PDT, poor water solubility and non-specificity of PSs, often affect the overall effectivity of this unconventional cancer treatment. With respect to conventional PS obstacles, great strides have been made towards the application of targeted nanoparticles in PDT to resolve these limitations. Therefore, this review provides an overview of scientific peer reviewed published studies in relation to functionalized organic nanoparticles (NPs) for effective TPDT treatment of breast cancer over the last 10 years (2009 to 2019). The main aim of this review is to highlight the importance of organic NP active based PDT targeted drug delivery systems, to improve the overall biodistribution of PSs in breast cancer tumour's.

Multifunctional Nanodrug Mediates Synergistic Photodynamic Therapy and MDSCs-Targeting Immunotherapy of Colon Cancer.

Project description:An ideal tumor treatment is supposed to eliminate the primary tumor and simultaneously trigger the host antitumor immune responses to prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis. Herein, a liposome encapsulating phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma (PI3Kγ) inhibitor IPI-549 and photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6), denoted by LIC, is prepared for colon cancer treatment. LIC internalized into CT26 cells generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) under laser irradiation to cause immunogenic tumor cell death, during which immunostimulatory signals such as calreticulin are released to further induce T lymphocyte-mediated tumor cell killing. Meanwhile, IPI-549 transported by liposome can inhibit PI3Kγ in the myeloid-derived suppressive cells (MDSCs), resulting in downregulation of arginase 1 (Arg-1) and ROS to promote MDSCs apoptosis and reduce their immunosuppressive activity to CD8+ T cells. LIC-mediated immunogenic photodynamic therapy synergizes with MDSCs-targeting immunotherapy, which significantly inhibits tumor growth via facilitating the dendritic cell maturation and tumor infiltration of CD8+ T cells while decreasing the tumor infiltration of immunosuppressive regulatory T cells, MDSCs, and M2-like tumor-associated macrophages. Moreover, the synergistic therapy increases the number of effector memory T cells (TEM ) in spleen, which suggests a favorable immune memory to prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis. The Ce6 and IPI-549-coloaded multifunctional nanodrug demonstrates high efficacy in colon cancer treatment.

Proteolysis-targeting vaccines (PROTAVs) for robust combination immunotherapy of melanoma.

Project description:Protein/peptide subunit vaccines are promising to promote the tumor therapeutic efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). However, current protein/peptide vaccines elicit limited antitumor T cell responses, leading to suboptimal therapeutic efficacy. Here, we present proteolysis-targeting vaccines (PROTAVs) that facilitate antigen proteolytic processing and cross-presentation to potentiate T cell responses for robust ICB combination immunotherapy of melanoma. PROTAVs are modular conjugates of protein/peptide antigens, E3 ligase-binding ligands, and linkers. In antigen-presenting cells (APCs), PROTAVs bind to E3 ligases to rapidly ubiquitinate PROTAV antigens, facilitating antigen proteolytic processing by proteasome, and thereby promoting antigen cross-presentation to T cells and potentiating CD8+ T cell responses. We developed a melanoma PROTAV using a tandem peptide of trivalent melanoma-associated antigens. Co-delivered by lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) with bivalent immunostimulant adjuvants, this PROTAV promotes the quantity and quality of melanoma-specific CD8+ T cells in mice. Further, combining PROTAV and ICB ameliorates the immunosuppressive melanoma microenvironment. As a result, PROTAV and ICB combination enhances melanoma complete regression rates and eradicated 100% large Braf V600E melanoma without recurrence in syngeneic mice. PROTAVs hold the potential for robust tumor combination immunotherapy.

Immunotherapy of melanoma with the immune costimulatory monoclonal antibodies targeting CD137.

Project description:Knowledge of how the immune system recognizes and attempts to control cancer growth and development has improved dramatically. The advent of immunotherapies for cancer has resulted in robust clinical responses and confirmed that the immune system can significantly inhibit tumor progression. Until recently, metastatic melanoma was a disease with limited treatment options and a poor prognosis. CD137 (also known as 4-1BB) a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily, is an activation-induced T cell costimulator molecule. Growing evidence indicates that anti-CD137 monoclonal antibodies possess strong antitumor properties, the result of their powerful capability to activate CD8+ T cells, to produce interferon (IFN)-γ, and to induce cytolytic markers. Combination therapy of anti-CD137 with other anticancer agents, such as radiation, has robust tumor-regressing abilities against nonimmunogenic or poorly immunogenic tumors. Of importance, targeting CD137 eliminates established tumors, and the fact that anti-CD137 therapy acts in concert with other anticancer agents and/or radiation therapy to eradicate nonimmunogenic and weakly immunogenic tumors is an additional benefit. Currently, BMS-663513, a humanized anti-CD137 antibody, is in clinical trials in patients with solid tumors, including melanoma, renal carcinoma, ovarian cancer, and B-cell malignancies. In this review, we discuss the basis of the therapeutic potential of targeting CD137 in cancer treatment, focusing in particular, on BMS-663513 as an immune costimulatory monoclonal antibody for melanoma immunotherapy.

Efficient Synthesis of Chlorin e6 and Its Potential Photodynamic Immunotherapy in Mouse Melanoma by the Abscopal Effect.

Project description:Photodynamic therapy (PDT) can eradicate not only cancer cells but also stimulate an antitumor immune response. Herein, we describe two efficient synthetic methodologies for the preparation of Chlorin e6 (Ce6) from Spirulina platensis and address the phototoxic effect of Ce6 in vitro along with antitumor activity in vivo. Melanoma B16F10 cells were seeded and phototoxicity was monitored by the MTT assay. The C57BL/6 mice were subcutaneously inoculated on the left and right flank with B16F10 cells. The mice were intravenously injected with Ce6 of 2.5 mg/kg and then exposed to red light (660 nm) on the left flank tumors 3 h after the injection. The immune response was studied by analyzing Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and Interleukin-2 (IL-2) of the right flank tumors through qPCR. Our results revealed that the tumor was suppressed not only in the left flank but also in the right flank, where no PDT was given. The upregulated gene and protein expression of IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-2 revealed antitumor immunity due to Ce6-PDT. The findings of this study suggest an efficient methodology of Ce6 preparation and the efficacy of Ce6-PDT as a promising antitumor immune response.
