Engineering Macrophage Exosome Disguised Biodegradable Nanoplatform for Enhanced Sonodynamic Therapy of Glioblastoma

Tingting Wu et al.

Summary: Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is a promising cancer treatment modality for glioblastoma (GBM) due to its high tissue penetration and minimal damage to normal tissues. However, the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and hypoxic microenvironment present challenges to SDT efficiency. In this study, a biodegradable nanoplatform (CSI@Ex-A) was developed, which could effectively penetrate the BBB and target cancer cells. The nanoplatform releases hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and oxygen (O-2) to relieve tumor hypoxia, thereby enhancing the efficacy of SDT.
