Bacterial Template Synthesis of Multifunctional Nanospindles for Glutathione Detection and Enhanced Cancer-Specific Chemo-Chemodynamic Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Biological synthetic methods of nanoparticles have shown great advantages, such as environmental friendliness, low cost, mild reaction conditions, and enhanced biocompatibility and stability of products. Bacteria, as one of the most important living organisms, have been utilized as bioreducing nanofactories to biosynthesize many metal nanoparticles or compounds. Here, inspired by the disinfection process of KMnO4, we for the first time introduce bacteria as both the template and the reducing agent to construct a novel tumor microenvironment-responsive MnO x -based nanoplatform for biomedical applications in various aspects. It is found that the bacterium/MnO x -based nanospindles (EM NSs) can efficiently encapsulate the chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin (DOX), leading to the fluorescence quenching of the drug. The as-formed DOX-loaded EM NSs (EMD NSs) are proven to be decomposed by glutathione (GSH) and can simultaneously release DOX and Mn2+ ions. The former can be utilized for sensitive fluorescence-based GSH sensing with a limit of detection as low as 0.28??M and selective cancer therapy, while the latter plays important roles in GSH-activated magnetic resonance imaging and chemodynamic therapy. We also demonstrate that these nanospindles can generate oxygen in the presence of endogenous hydrogen peroxide to inhibit P-glycoprotein expression under hypoxia and can achieve excellent tumor eradication and tumor metastasis inhibition performance. Taken together, this work designs a multifunctional bacterially synthesized nanomissile for imaging-guided tumor-specific chemo-chemodynamic combination therapy and will have implications for the design of microorganism-derived smart nanomedicines.

Project description:The combination of chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy (PDT) based on nanoparticles (NPs) has been extensively developed to improve the therapeutic effect and decrease the systemic toxicity of current treatments. However, overexpressed glutathione (GSH) in tumor cells efficiently scavenges singlet oxygens (1O2) generated from photosensitizers and results in the unsatisfactory efficacy of PDT. To address this obstacle, here we design H2O2-responsive polymer prodrug NPs with GSH-scavenger (Ce6@P(EG-a-CPBE) NPs) for chemo-photodynamic synergistic cancer therapy. They are constructed by the co-self-assembly of photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) and amphiphilic polymer prodrug P(EG-a-CPBE), which is synthesized from a hydrophilic alternating copolymer P(EG-a-PD) by conjugating hydrophobic anticancer drug chlorambucil (CB) via an H2O2-cleavable linker 4-(hydroxymethyl)phenylboronic acid (PBA). Ce6@P(EG-a-CPBE) NPs can efficiently prevent premature drug leakage in blood circulation because of the high stability of the PBA linker under the physiological environment and facilitate the delivery of Ce6 and CB to the tumor site after intravenous injection. Upon internalization of Ce6@P(EG-a-CPBE) NPs by tumor cells, PBA is cleaved rapidly triggered by endogenous H2O2 to release CB and Ce6. Ce6 can effectively generate abundant 1O2 under 660 nm light irradiation to synergistically kill cancer cells with CB. Concurrently, PBA can be transformed into a GSH-scavenger (quinine methide, QM) under intracellular H2O2 and prevent the depletion of 1O2, which induces the cooperatively strong oxidative stress and enhanced cancer cell apoptosis. Collectively, such H2O2-responsive polymer prodrug NPs loaded with photosensitizer provide a feasible approach to enhance chemo-photodynamic synergistic cancer treatment.

Project description:Development of nanomedicines to overcome the hindrances of tumor microenvironment (TME) for tumor theranostics with alleviated side effects remains challenging. We report here a microfluidic synthesis of artesunate (ART)-loaded polydopamine (PDA)/iron (Fe) nanocomplexes (NCs) coated with fibronectin (FN). The created multifunctional Fe-PDA@ART/FN NCs (FDRF NCs) with a mean size of 161.0 nm exhibit desired colloidal stability, monodispersity, r1 relaxivity (4.96 mM−1s−1), and biocompatibility. The co-delivery of the Fe2+ and ART enables enhanced chemodynamic therapy (CDT) through improved intracellular reactive oxygen species generation via a cycling reaction between Fe3+ and Fe2+ caused by the Fe3+-mediated glutathione oxidation and Fe2+-mediated ART reduction/Fenton reaction for self-supplementing TME regulation. Likewise, the combination of ART-mediated chemotherapy and the Fe2+/ART-regulated enhanced CDT enables noticeable immunogenic cell death, which can be collaborated with antibody-mediated immune checkpoint blockade to exert immunotherapy having significant antitumor immunity. The combined therapy improves the efficacy of primary tumor therapy and tumor metastasis inhibition by virtue of FN-mediated specific targeting of FDRF NCs to tumors with highly expressed αvβ3 integrin and can be guided through the Fe(III)-rendered magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. The developed FDRF NCs may be regarded as an advanced nanomedicine formulation for chemo-chemodynamic-immune therapy of different tumor types under MR imaging guidance. Graphical abstract Image 1 Highlights • Intelligent Fe-PDA@ART/FN NCs can be prepared via microfluidics.• FDRF NCs have dual-pathway enhanced ROS generation ability.• Sustained TME regulation is achieved via a cycling reaction between Fe3+ and Fe2+.• Combined therapy-induced ICD can significantly activate antitumor immune response.• FDRF NCs enable MR imaging and ICB-integrated tri-mode tumor therapy.
