Repolarizing the tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) towards the antitumoral M1-like phenotype has been a promising approach for cancer immunotherapy . However, the anti-cancer immune response is severely limited mainly by the repolarized M1-like macrophages belatedly returning to the M2-like phenotype (i.e., negative feedback). Inspired by nitric oxide (NO) effectively preventing repolarization of inflammatory macrophages in inflammatory diseases, herein, we develop an arginine assembly, as NO nano-donor for NO generation to prevent the negative feedback of the macrophage repolarization. The strategy is to first apply reversible tagging of hydrophobic terephthalaldehyde to create an arginine nano-assembly, and then load a toll-like receptor 7/8 agonist resiquimod (R848) (R848@Arg). Through this strategy, a high loading efficiency of 40 % for the arginine and repolarization characteristics for TAMs can be achieved. Upon the macrophage repolarization by R848, NO can be intracellularly generated from the released arginine by the upregulated inducible nitric oxide synthase. Mechanistically, NO effectively prevented the negative feedback of the repolarized macrophage by mitochondrial dysfunction via blocking oxidative phosphorylation . Notably, R848@Arg significantly increased the tumor inhibition ratio by 3.13-fold as compared to the free R848 by maintaining the M1-like phenotype infiltrating into tumor. The Arg-assembly as NO nano-donor provides a promising method for effective repolarization of macrophages.

The main challenges for programmed cell death 1(PD-1)/PD-1 ligand (PD-L1) checkpoint blockade lie in a lack of sufficient T cell infiltration, tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment, and the inadequate tumor accumulation and penetration of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody. Resetting tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) is a promising strategy to enhance T-cell antitumor immunity and ameliorate tumor immunosuppression. Here, mannose-modified macrophage-derived microparticles (Man-MPs) loading metformin (Met@Man-MPs) are developed to efficiently target to M2-like TAMs to repolarize into M1-like phenotype. Met@Man-MPs-reset TAMs remodel the tumor immune microenvironment by increasing the recruitment of CD8 + T cells into tumor tissues and decreasing immunosuppressive infiltration of myeloid-derived suppressor cells and regulatory T cells. More importantly, the collagen-degrading capacity of Man-MPs contributes to the infiltration of CD8 + T cells into tumor interiors and enhances tumor accumulation and penetration of anti-PD-1 antibody. These unique features of Met@Man-MPs contribute to boost anti-PD-1 antibody therapy, improving anticancer efficacy and long-term memory immunity after combination treatment. Our results support Met@Man-MPs as a potential drug to improve tumor resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy.

Macrophage-mediated cellular phagocytosis (MMCP) plays a critical role in conducting antitumor immunotherapy but is usually impaired by the intrinsic phagocytosis evading ability of tumor cells and the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, a MMCP-boosting hydrogel (TCCaGM) was elaborately engineered by encapsulating granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and a therapeutic nanoplatform (TCCaN) that preloaded with the tunicamycin (Tuni) and catalase (CAT) with the assistance of CaCO3 nanoparticles (NPs). Strikingly, the hypoxic/acidic TME was efficiently alleviated by the engineered hydrogel, “eat me” signal calreticulin (CRT) was upregulated, while the “don’t eat me” signal CD47 was downregulated on tumor cells, and the infiltrated DCs were recruited and activated, all of which contributed to boosting the macrophage-mediated phagocytosis and initiating tumor-specific CD8+ T cells responses. Meanwhile, the remodeled TME was beneficial to accelerate the polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) to the antitumoral M1-like phenotype, further heightening tumoricidal immunity. With the combination of PD-1 antibody (αPD-1), the designed hydrogel significantly heightened systemic antitumor immune responses and long-term immunological effects to control the development of primary and distant tumors as well as suppress tumor metastasis and recurrence, which established an optimal strategy for high-performance antitumor immunotherapy.

Nerve–cancer crosstalk has gained substantial attention owing to its impact on tumour growth, metastasis and therapy resistance. Effective therapeutic strategies targeting tumour-associated nerves within the intricate tumour microenvironment remain a major challenge in pancreatic cancer. Here we develop Escherichia coli Nissle 1917-derived outer membrane vesicles conjugated with nerve-binding peptide NP41, loaded with the tropomyosin receptor kinase (Trk) inhibitor larotrectinib (Lar@NP-OMVs) for tumour-associated nerve targeting. Lar@NP-OMVs achieve efficient nerve intervention to diminish neurite growth by disrupting the neurotrophin/Trk signalling pathway. Moreover, OMV-mediated repolarization of M2-like tumour-associated macrophages to an M1-like phenotype results in nerve injury, further accentuating Lar@NP-OMV-induced nerve intervention to inhibit nerve-triggered proliferation and migration of pancreatic cancer cells and angiogenesis. Leveraging this strategy, Lar@NP-OMVs significantly reduce nerve infiltration and neurite growth promoted by gemcitabine within the tumour microenvironment, leading to augmented chemotherapy efficacy in pancreatic cancer. This study sheds light on a potential avenue for nerve-targeted therapeutic intervention for enhancing pancreatic cancer therapy.
