Starvation-Sensitized and Oxygenation-Promoted Tumor Sonodynamic Therapy by a Cascade Enzymatic Approach.

ABSTRACT: The therapeutic outcomes of noninvasive sonodynamic therapy (SDT) are always compromised by tumor hypoxia, as well as inherent protective mechanisms of tumor. Herein, we report a simple cascade enzymatic approach of the concurrent glucose depletion and intratumoral oxygenation for starvation-sensitized and oxygenation-amplified sonodynamic therapy using a dual enzyme and sonosensitizer-loaded nanomedicine designated as GOD/CAT@ZPF-Lips. In particular, glucose oxidase- (GOD-) catalyzed glycolysis would cut off glucose supply within the tumor, resulting in the production of tumor hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) while causing tumor cells starvation. The generated H₂O₂ could subsequently be decomposed by catalase (CAT) to generate oxygen, which acts as reactants for the abundant singlet oxygen (¹O₂) production by loaded sonosensitizer hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME) upon the US irradiation, performing largely elevated therapeutic outcomes of SDT. In the meantime, the severe energy deprivation enabled by GOD-catalyzed glucose depletion would prevent tumor cells from executing protective mechanisms to defend themselves and make the tumor cells sensitized and succumbed to the cytotoxicity of ¹O₂. Eventually, GOD/CAT@ZPF-Lips demonstrate the excellent tumoral therapeutic effect of SDT in vivo without significant side effect through the cascade enzymatic starvation and oxygenation, and encouragingly, the tumor xenografts have been found completely eradicated in around 4 days by the intravenous injection of the nanomedicine without reoccurrence for as long as 20 days.

Hypoxia modulation by dual-drug nanoparticles for enhanced synergistic sonodynamic and starvation therapy.

Project description:BackgroundSonodynamic therapy (SDT) is an emerging non-invasive therapeutic technique. SDT-based cancer therapy strategies are presently underway, and it may be perceived as a promising approach to improve the efficiency of anti-cancer treatment. In this work, multifunctional theranostic nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized for synergistic starvation therapy and SDT by loading glucose oxidase (GOx, termed G) and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis (4-chlorophenyl) porphyrin) Cl (T (p-Cl) PPMnCl, termed PMnC) in Poly (lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) NPs (designated as MG@P NPs).ResultsOn account of the peroxidase-like activity of PMnC, MG@P NPs can catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in tumor regions to produce oxygen (O2), thus enhancing synergistic therapeutic effects by accelerating the decomposition of glucose and promoting the production of cytotoxic singlet oxygen (1O2) induced by ultrasound (US) irradiation. Furthermore, the NPs can also serve as excellent photoacoustic (PA)/magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast agents, effectuating imaging-guided cancer treatment.ConclusionMultifunctional MG@P NPs can effectuate the synergistic amplification effect of cancer starvation therapy and SDT by hypoxia modulation, and act as contrast agents to enhance MR/PA dual-modal imaging. Consequently, MG@P NPs might be a promising nano-platform for highly efficient cancer theranostics.

Biomimetic Cascade Polymer Nanoreactors for Starvation and Photodynamic Cancer Therapy.

Project description:The selective disruption of nutritional supplements and the metabolic routes of cancer cells offer a promising opportunity for more efficient cancer therapeutics. Herein, a biomimetic cascade polymer nanoreactor (GOx/CAT-NC) was fabricated by encapsulating glucose oxidase (GOx) and catalase (CAT) in a porphyrin polymer nanocapsule for combined starvation and photodynamic anticancer therapy. Internalized by cancer cells, the GOx/CAT-NCs facilitate microenvironmental oxidation by catalyzing endogenous H2O2 to form O2, thereby accelerating intracellular glucose catabolism and enhancing cytotoxic singlet oxygen (1O2) production with infrared irradiation. The GOx/CAT-NCs have demonstrated synergistic advantages in long-term starvation therapy and powerful photodynamic therapy (PDT) in cancer treatment, which inhibits tumor cells at more than twice the rate of starvation therapy alone. The biomimetic polymer nanoreactor will further contribute to the advancement of complementary modes of spatiotemporal control of cancer therapy.

IR-780 Dye as a Sonosensitizer for Sonodynamic Therapy of Breast Tumor.

Project description:Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has become a new modality for cancer therapy through activating certain chemical sensitizers by ultrasound (US). Discovery and development of novel sonosensitizers are attracting extensive attentions. Here, we introduce IR-780 iodide, a lipophilic heptamethine dye with a peak optical absorption of 780?nm wavelength, which can function as SDT agents for breast cancer treatment. The in vitro cellular uptake, cell viability, and the generation levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were examined by using 4T1 breast cancer cells incubated with various concentrations of IR-780 followed by US irradiation. Our results showed a dose- and time-dependent cellular uptake of IR-780 iodide in 4T1 cancer cells. Significant lower viabilities and more necrotic/apoptotic cells were found when these cancer cells were treated with IR-780 iodide with US irradiation. Further analyzing the generation of ROS demonstrated significant increase of (1)O2 level and H2O2, but not ?OH in the SDT-treated cells. The in vivo anti-tumor efficacy of SDT with IR-780 revealed significant tumor growth inhibition of xenografts of 4T1 cancer cells; it was further confirmed by histological analysis and TUNEL staining. Our results strongly suggest that SDT combined with IR-780 may provide a promising strategy for tumor treatment with minimal side effects.

Glucose Oxidase-Instructed Traceable Self-Oxygenation/Hyperthermia Dually Enhanced Cancer Starvation Therapy.

Project description:Cancer theranostics based on glucose oxidase (GOx)-induced starvation therapy has got more and more attention in cancer management. Herein, GOx armed manganese dioxide nanosheets (denoted as MNS-GOx) were developed as cancer nanotheranostic agent for magnetic resonance (MR)/photoacoustic (PA) dual-modal imaging guided self-oxygenation/hyperthermia dually enhanced starvation cancer therapy. The manganese dioxide nanomaterials with different morphologies (such as nanoflowers, nanosheets and nanowires) were synthesized by a biomimetic approach using melanin as a biotemplate. Afterwards, the manganese dioxide nanosheets (MNS) with two sides and large surface area were selected as the vehicle to carry and deliver GOx. The as-prepared MNS-GOx can perform the circular reaction of glucose oxidation and H2O2 decomposition for enhanced starvation therapy. Moreover, the catalytic activity of GOx could be further improved by the hyperthermia of MNS-GOx upon near-infrared laser irradiation. Most intriguingly, MNS-GOx could achieve "turn-on" MR imaging and "turn-off" PA imaging simultaneously. The theranostic capability of MNS-GOx was evaluated on A375 tumor-bearing mice with all tumor elimination. Our findings integrated molecular imaging and starvation-based synergistic cancer therapy, which provided a new platform for cancer nanotheranostics.

Drug-loaded hybrid hydrogels for sonodynamic-chemodyanmic therapy and tumor metastasis suppression.

Project description:Introduction: Although various therapies have been adopted to treat cancer, metastasis of tumor cells still is a big challenge that compromises therapeutic benefits. Methods: We herein report an injectable drug-loaded hybrid hydrogel that can achieve sonodynamic therapy (SDT) and chemodyanmic therapy (CDT) combined action and suppression of tumor metastasis. This alginate (ALG)-based hydrogel (termed as AMPS) contains manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles as the CDT agents, an organic polymer as the sonosensitizer, and a SIS3 drug as metastasis inhibitor. Results: AMPS is formed via the chelation of ALG by Ca2+ in tumor microenvironment, in which MnO2 nanoparticles mediate CDT via Fenton-like reaction and the organic polymers enable SDT under ultrasound (US) irradiation by generating singlet oxygen (1O2), allowing for combinational action of CDT and SDT. In addition, SIS3 is released from AMPS hydrogels to inhibit the metastasis of tumor cells. As such, the AMPS enables a combinational action of SDT and CDT to greatly inhibit the growths of subcutaneous tumors in living mice and also completely suppress the tumor metastasis in lungs and livers. Conclusion: This study thus offers a hybrid hydrogel platform for combinational therapy and metastasis suppression simultaneously.

Sonodynamic therapy in combination with photodynamic therapy shows enhanced long-term cure of brain tumor.

Project description:This article presents the construction of a multimodality platform that can be used for efficient destruction of brain tumor by a combination of photodynamic and sonodynamic therapy. For in vivo studies, U87 patient-derived xenograft tumors were implanted subcutaneously in SCID mice. For the first time, it has been shown that the cell-death mechanism by both treatment modalities follows two different pathways. For example, exposing the U87 cells after 24 h incubation with HPPH [3-(1'-hexyloxy)ethyl-3-devinyl-pyropheophorbide-a) by ultrasound participate in an electron-transfer process with the surrounding biological substrates to form radicals and radical ions (Type I reaction); whereas in photodynamic therapy, the tumor destruction is mainly caused by highly reactive singlet oxygen (Type II reaction). The combination of photodynamic therapy and sonodynamic therapy both in vitro and in vivo have shown an improved cell kill/tumor response, that could be attributed to an additive and/or synergetic effect(s). Our results also indicate that the delivery of the HPPH to tumors can further be enhanced by using cationic polyacrylamide nanoparticles as a delivery vehicle. Exposing the nano-formulation with ultrasound also triggered the release of photosensitizer. The combination of photodynamic therapy and sonodynamic therapy strongly affects tumor vasculature as determined by dynamic contrast enhanced imaging using HSA-Gd(III)DTPA.

Perfluoropolyether Nanoemulsion Encapsulating Chlorin e6 for Sonodynamic and Photodynamic Therapy of Hypoxic Tumor.

Project description:Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has emerged as an important modality for cancer treatment. SDT utilizes ultrasound excitation, which overcomes the limitations of light penetration in deep tumors, as encountered by photodynamic therapy (PDT) which uses optical excitations. A comparative study of these modalities using the same sensitizer drug can provide an assessment of their effects. However, the efficiency of SDT and PDT is low in a hypoxic tumor environment, which limits their applications. In this study, we report a hierarchical nanoformulation which contains a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved sensitizer chlorin, e6, and a uniquely stable high loading capacity oxygen carrier, perfluoropolyether. This oxygen carrier possesses no measurable cytotoxicity. It delivers oxygen to overcome hypoxia, and at the same time, boosts the efficiency of both SDT and PDT. Moreover, we comparatively analyzed the efficiency of SDT and PDT for tumor treatment throughout the depth of the tissue. Our study demonstrates that the strengths of PDT and SDT could be combined into a single multifunctional nanoplatform, which works well in the hypoxia environment and overcomes the limitations of each modality. The combination of deep tissue penetration by ultrasound and high spatial activation by light for selective treatment of single cells will significantly enhance the scope for therapeutic applications.

Augmenting Tumor-Starvation Therapy by Cancer Cell Autophagy Inhibition.

Project description:It was recently recognized that cancer therapeutic efficacy may be greatly compromised by an intrinsic protective mechanism called autophagy, by which cancer cells survive in harsh conditions such as starvation. Here, a synergetic strategy is described for cancer treatment by suppressing such a protective mechanism for augmenting tumor-starvation therapy. The synergetic therapy is achieved by restraining glucose metabolism using an antiglycolytic agent to predispose cancer cells to severe energy deprivation; concurrently the downstream autophagic flux and compensatory energy supplies are blocked by the autophagy inhibitor black phosphorus nanosheet. Cancer cells fail to extract their own nutrient to feed themselves, finally succumbing to therapeutic interventions and starving to death. Both in vitro and in vivo results evidence the cooperative effect between the autophagy inhibitor and antiglycolytic agent, which leads to remarkable synergetic antineoplastic outcome. It is expected that such a combinational approach by concurrently blocking exogenous and endogenous nutrition supplies will be beneficial to the design of effective tumor-specific cancer therapies in the future.

Enhancing Penetration Ability of Semiconducting Polymer Nanoparticles for Sonodynamic Therapy of Large Solid Tumor.

Project description:Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) holds growing promise in deep-seated or large solid tumor treatment owing to its high tissue penetration depth ability; however, its therapeutic efficacy is often compromised due to the hypopermeable and hypoxic characteristics in the tumor milieu. Herein, a semiconducting polymer nanoparticle (SPNC) that synergistically enhances tumor penetration and alleviates tumor hypoxia is reported for sonodynamic therapy of large solid tumors. SPNC comprises a semiconducting polymer nanoparticle core as a sonodynamic converter coated with a poly (ethylene glycol) corona. An oxygen-modulating enzyme, catalase, is efficiently conjugated to the surface of nanoparticles via the coupling reaction. Superior to its counterpart SPNCs (SPNC2 (84 nm) and SPNC3 (134 nm)), SPNC with the smallest size (SPNC1 (35 nm)) can efficiently penetrate throughout the tumor interstitium to alleviate whole tumor hypoxia in a large solid tumor model. Upon ultrasound (US) irradiation, SPNC1 can remotely generate sufficient singlet oxygen to eradicate tumor cells at a deep-tissue depth. Such a single treatment of SPNC1-medicated sonodynamic therapy effectively inhibits tumor growth in a large solid tumor mouse model. Therefore, this study provides a generalized strategy to synergistically overcome both poor penetration and hypoxia of large tumors for enhanced cancer treatment.

A biomimetic nanoreactor for synergistic chemiexcited photodynamic therapy and starvation therapy against tumor metastasis.

Project description:Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is ineffective against deeply seated metastatic tumors due to poor penetration of the excitation light. Herein, we developed a biomimetic nanoreactor (bio-NR) to achieve synergistic chemiexcited photodynamic-starvation therapy against tumor metastasis. Photosensitizers on the hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) are excited by chemical energy in situ of the deep metastatic tumor to generate singlet oxygen (1O2) for PDT, and glucose oxidase (GOx) catalyzes glucose into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Remarkably, this process not only blocks the nutrient supply for starvation therapy but also provides H2O2 to synergistically enhance PDT. Cancer cell membrane coating endows the nanoparticle with biological properties of homologous adhesion and immune escape. Thus, bio-NRs can effectively convert the glucose into 1O2 in metastatic tumors. The excellent therapeutic effects of bio-NRs in vitro and in vivo indicate their great potential for cancer metastasis therapy.
