A Microenvironment Dual-Responsive Nano-Drug Equipped with PD-L1 Blocking Peptide Triggers Immunogenic Pyroptosis for Prostate Cancer Self-Synergistic Immunotherapy

He Wang et al.

Summary: The combination of immunogenic cell death induction in tumors and immune checkpoint blockade therapy has been widely developed to enhance the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy. This study demonstrates that pyroptosis, a form of immunogenic cell death, is more efficient than apoptosis in activating tumor immunogenicity. By using an epigenetic drug decitabine and photodynamic therapy, the apoptosis-pyroptosis transition can be successfully induced in prostate cancer cells. Furthermore, a nano-drug that can respond to the tumor microenvironment and block PD-L1 is developed for self-synergistic cancer immunotherapy, which shows strong antitumor immune response and long-term immune memory in a poorly immunogenic prostate cancer model.

Microenvironment-Responsive Prodrug-Induced Pyroptosis Boosts Cancer Immunotherapy

Yao Xiao et al.

Summary: The absence of tumor antigens poses a challenge in ICB therapy, but inducing tumor-specific pyroptosis while reducing injury in normal tissues is urgently needed. A ROS/GSH dual-responsive nano-prodrug called MCPP with high PTX and P18 loading is designed to selectively induce pyroptosis in tumor cells. Chemo-photodynamic therapy and controlled-release PTX synergistically induce pyroptosis, releasing DAMPs and enhancing ICB efficiency, suggesting a smart strategy to trigger pyroptosis and augment ICB efficiency.

Calreticulin and cancer

Jitka Fucikova et al.

Summary: CALR is a protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum that plays important roles in cellular processes and protein folding. It acts as a chaperone in healthy cells, assisting protein folding and supporting Ca2+-dependent processes, while also being exposed on the cell surface in cancer cells to promote immunogenic cell death. Loss-of-functionCALRmutations can promote oncogenesis by impairing cellular homeostasis and compromising natural and therapy-driven immunosurveillance.
