Abstract

External stimuli-responsive nanomedicine with desirable repetitive on-demand drug release character is postulated to greatly accommodate patients' flexible medication regime. To this object, light-activatable liposomes (Pt/Ce6-LP) integrated with both a Ce6 photodynamic component and a tetravalent platinum prodrug (Pt(IV)) chemotherapeutic component are engineered. This multifunctional system was rationally designed using unsaturated phospholipid to achieve repetitive on-demand drug release under discontinuous light irradiation, thus performing chemo-photodynamic therapy effect and immunopotentiation in hypoxic tumor. Furthermore, glutathione (GSH) consumption during transformation from Pt(IV) prodrug to Pt(II) can avoid depletion of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Note this positive feedback loop appears to remodel the redox balance of H2O2 and GSH in tumors, alleviating the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. The alleviated hypoxia is found to be critical to the enhancement of PDT efficacy, reversal of cisplatin resistance in tumors, and polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) to the immunocompetent M1-phynotype. Pt/Ce6-LP with light radiation demonstrates significant antitumor effect and persistent post-medication inhibition in patient-derived tumor xenograft model of hepatocellular carcinoma.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
