The field of immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), holds immense potential in mitigating the progression of cancer. However, the challenges of insufficient tumor antigen production and the immunosuppressive state in the tumor microenvironment substantially impede patients from deriving benefits. In this research, we present a tumor-microenvironment-modulation manganese-based nanosystem, PEG-MnMOF@PTX, aiming to improve the responsiveness of ICB. Under acidic conditions, the released Mn2+ accomplishes multiple objectives. It generates toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH), together with the released paclitaxel (PTX), inducing immunogenic cell death of tumor cells and normalizing tumor blood vessels. Concurrently, it facilitates the in situ generation of oxygen (O2) from hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), ameliorating the microenvironmental immunosuppression and increasing the efficacy of immunotherapy. In addition, this study demonstrates that PEG-MnMOF@PTX can promote the maturation of dendritic cells and augment the infiltration of cytotoxic T lymphocytes through activation of the cyclic guanosine 5′-monophosphate–adenosine 5′-monophosphate synthase (cGAS) and interferon gene stimulator (STING) pathways, namely cGAS–STING pathways, thereby heightening the sensitivity to ICB immunotherapy. The findings of this study present a novel paradigm for the progress in cancer immunotherapy.

Limited drug accumulation and an immunosuppressive microenvironment are the major bottlenecks in the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Herein, we report a copper-coordination driven brain-targeting nanoassembly (TCe6@Cu/TP5 NPs) for site-specific delivery of therapeutic agents and efficient immunotherapy by activating the cGAS-STING pathway and downregulating the expression of PD-L1. To achieve this, the mitochondria-targeting triphenylphosphorus (TPP) was linked to photosensitizer Chlorin e6 (Ce6) to form TPP-Ce6 (TCe6), which was then self-assembled with copper ions and thymopentin (TP5) to obtain TCe6@Cu/TP5 NPs. This nanoassembly effectively accumulated in tumor sites through the copper transport mechanism. Meanwhile, TCe6@Cu/TP5 could induce mitochondrial impairment by photodynamic therapy (PDT) mediated reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and Cu 2+ triggered cuproptosis, resulting in evoking the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway to degrade PD-L1, and activating the cGAS-STING pathway to enhance anti-tumor immunity. Moreover, TP5 significantly promoted the proliferation and differentiation of dendritic cells (DCs) and T lymphocytes to further amplify the cancer immunity cycle. Collectively, our TCe6@Cu/TP5 NPs effectively facilitate drug accumulation and activate systemic antitumor immunity in vitro and in vivo, providing an innovative solution across the BBB that potentiates GBM immunotherapy.

Glioblastoma, the most prevalent malignant brain tumor, is a lethal threat to human health, with aggressive and infiltrative growth characteristics that compromise the clinical treatment. Herein, we developed a vitamin D3-inserted lipid hybrid neutrophil membrane biomimetic multimodal nanoplatform (designated as NED@MnO2-DOX) through doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded manganese dioxide nanoparticles (MnO2) which were coated with a vitamin D3-inserted lipid hybrid neutrophil membrane. It was demonstrated that in addition to chemotherapy and chemo-dynamic therapy efficacy, NED@MnO2-DOX exhibited great power to activate and amplify immune responses related to the cGAS STING pathway, bolstering the secretion of type I interferon-β and proinflammatory cytokines, promoting the maturation of DC cells and infiltration of CD8+T cells into the glioma tissue, thereby reversing the immunosuppressive microenvironment of glioma from a “cold” tumor to a “hot” tumor. The biomimetic multimodal nanoplatform has potential as a multimodal strategy for glioma-targeted treatment, especially holding considerable promise for the development of innate immune therapy for glioma.

The cGAS-STING pathway and the Mevalonate Pathway are druggable targets for vaccine adjuvant discovery. Manganese (Mn) and bisphosphonates are known to exert adjuvant effects by targeting these two pathways, respectively. This study found the synergistic potential of the two pathways in enhancing immune response. Risedronate (Ris) significantly amplified the Mn adjuvant early antibody response by 166-fold and fortified its cellular immunity. However, direct combination of Mn 2+ and Ris resulted in increased adjuvant toxicity (40% mouse mortality). By the combination of doping property of hydroxyapatite (HA) and its high affinity for Ris, we designed Ris-functionalized Mn-HA micro-nanoparticles as an organic-inorganic hybrid adjuvant, named MnHARis. MnHARis alleviated adjuvant toxicity (100% vs. 60% survival rate) and exhibited good long-term stability. When formulated with the varicella-zoster virus glycoprotein E (gE) antigen, MnHARis triggered a 274.3-fold increase in IgG titers and a 61.3-fold surge in neutralization titers while maintaining a better long-term humoral immunity compared to the aluminum adjuvant. Its efficacy spanned other antigens, including ovalbumin, HPV18 VLP, and SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Notably, the cellular immunity elicited by the group of gE + MnHARis was comparable to the renowned Shingrix®. Moreover, intratumoral co-administration with an anti-trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 nanobody revealed synergistic antitumor capabilities. These findings underscore the potential of MnHARis as a potent adjuvant for augmenting vaccine immune responses and improving cancer immunotherapy outcomes.

Efficient nuclear DNA damage and release is highly recommended to improve the photodynamic immunotherapy by eliciting innate immune response yet remains challenging. Herein, an intracellular self-assembly driven nucleus-targeted photo-immune stimulator (PIS) with chromatin decompaction function is reported for innate and adaptive antitumor immunity co-activation. The PIS consists of vorinostat (SAHA)-loaded manganese-porphyrin metal-organic framework (Mn (III)-TCPP MOF) with further modification of AS1411 aptamer. The PIS can be efficiently internalized by tumor cells and disassembled under the intracellular overexpressed glutathione (GSH). Notably, the released AS1411 is able to be self-assembled with photosensitizer TCPP in situ within cells, driving nucleus-targeted delivery of TCPP; meanwhile, the loaded SAHA can induce chromatin decompaction, cooperatively promoting TCPP-mediated photodynamic nuclear DNA damage and cytosolic release under laser irradiation. In addition, the released manganese ions (Mn 2+ ) further enhance the cytosolic DNA/cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon gene (STING) pathway mediated innate immunity, which synergizes with PDT-induced immunogenic cell death to achieve co-activation of innate and adaptive immunity. Compared to traditional PDT, the self-assembly driven nucleus-targeted PDT system with chromatin decompaction show significantly enhanced efficacy for inhibiting primary tumor growth and distant metastasis in several xenograft tumor models, mechanistically by promoting the maturation of dendritic cells and tumor infiltration of natural killer cell, cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
