By utilizing DCT core-shell nanoparticles triggered by near infrared (NIR) light, optimized photodynamic therapy (PDT) and immunotherapy were achieved. These nanoparticles efficiently accumulated at tumor sites and induced robust ROS generation in mitochondria upon continuous light irradiation, leading to cancer cell death via PDT with mitochondrial targeting. These findings highlight a novel strategy for nanoparticles with DCT capability to enhance the effectiveness of combined photodynamic and immunotherapy treatments.
Cell and organelle targeting of nanomedicines are two cascade processes that lead to drug internalization and subsequent enrichment on the final target. However, it is still challenging to achieve dual-cascade targeting (DCT) with high spatiotemporal precision and efficiency via sequential activation of nanomedicine. Herein, we developed DCT core-shell nanoparticles triggered by near infrared (NIR) light for optimized photodynamic therapy (PDT) and immunotherapy. To obtain the DCT core-shell nanoparticles, an aggregation induced emission (AIE) monomer (7) with two hydroxyl groups was first synthesized. Thereafter, two core polymers with either reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation or mitochondrial targeting ability, and a shell polymer with cell surface targeting were synthesized. Assembly of the core polymers and subsequent coating with the shell polymer formed DCT core-shell nanoparticles (NP4). After NP4 were i.v. injected into mice, they were efficiently accumulated at tumor sites. Upon NIR light irradiation, NP4 induced robust ROS generation with concomitant detachment of negative shell polymers with polyethylene glycol (PEG), resulting in charge re-versal and the positively charged core nanoparticles for mitochondrial targeting. Subsequently, ROS generated in mitochondria upon continuous light irradiation killed cancer cells via PDT. In addition, PDT induced im-munogenic cell death (ICD), thus activating adaptive immunity. This work provided a novel strategy for na-noparticles with DCT capacity to maximize the effectiveness of combined photodynamic and immunotherapy. (c) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
