Broaden sources and reduce expenditure: Tumor-specific transformable oxidative stress nanoamplifier enabling economized photodynamic therapy for reinforced oxidation therapy.

ABSTRACT: Cancer cells immersed in inherent oxidative stress are more vulnerable to exogenous oxidative damages than normal cells. Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated oxidation therapy preferentially aggravating tumor oxidative stress to disrupt redox homeostasis, has emerged as an effective and specific anticancer treatment. Herein, following an ingenious strategy of "broaden sources and reduce expenditure", we designed a versatile tumor-specific oxidative stress nanoamplifier enabling economized photodynamic therapy (PDT), to achieve synergistic oxidative stress explosion for superior oxidation therapy. Methods: Cinnamaldehyde (CA) as a therapeutic ROS generator was first conjugated to hyaluronic acid (HA) through acid-labile hydrazone bond to synthesize tailored amphiphilic HA@CA conjugates, which could surprisingly self-assemble into uniform nanofibers in aqueous media. Photosensitizer protoporphyrin (PpIX) was efficiently encapsulated into HA@CA nanofibers and transformed HA@CA nanofibers to final spherical HA@CAP. Results: With beneficial pH-responsiveness and morphology transformation, improved bioavailability and selective tumor accumulation, HA@CAP combining ROS-based dual chemo/photodynamic treatment modalities could induce cytotoxic ROS generation in a two-pronged approach to amplify tumor oxidative stress, termed "broaden sources". Moreover, utilizing CA-induced H₂O₂ production and cascaded Fenton reaction in mitochondria to consume intracellular overloaded Fe(II), HA@CAP could skillfully block endogenic heme biosynthesis pathway on site to restrain undesired elimination of PpIX for economized PDT, termed "reduce expenditure". Both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrated the superior antitumor performance of HA@CAP. Conclusion: This study offered an inspiring strategy of "broaden sources and reduce expenditure" to specifically boost tumor oxidative stress for reinforced oxidation therapy.

Project description:This proteomic study This proteomic study focuses on the role of reversible thiol oxidation after hexyl aminolevulinate mediated PDT (HAL-PDT). The human epidermoid carcinoma cell line A431 was used as model system and red light as light source, a clinical relevant in vitro model. The light dose dependent cell cytotoxicity was measured by resazurin assay. The most clinical relevant dose, LD100, was used for the proteomic part of the study and cells where harvested 30 min after treatment. The reversibly oxidized thiol proteins were selected by biotinylation and identified by mass spectrometry. This proteomic technique revealed over 1100 thiol proteins which were reversibly oxidized after HAL-PDT. Identified proteins were analysed by bioinformatics (IPA and GO) and a list of reliable identified proteins (282 proteins) where further analysed. Both the cellular location and function was determined for these proteins. In addition, 18 of the proteins where identified as redox regulated, 36 to be a part of the apoptotic pathway and 9 to be both redox regulated and a part of apoptotic pathway. From these results we suggest redox regulated proteins as a trigger mechanism for PDT induced apoptosis.focuses on the role of reversible thiol oxidation after hexyl aminolevulinate mediated PDT (HAL-PDT).
