Abstract

Insufficient tumor accumulation and distribution of photosensitizers as well as low antitumor immunity severely restrict the therapeutic efficacy of photothermal therapy (PTT). Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play a key role in tumor extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and immune evasion. Reshaping tumor microenvironment via CAF regulation might provide a potential approach for complete tumor elimination in combination with PTT. Here, tumor cell-derived microparticles co-delivering calcipotriol and Indocyanine green (Cal/ICG@MPs) are developed to modulate CAFs for improved PTT efficacy. Cal/ICG@MPs efficiently target tumor tissues and regulate CAFs to reduce tumor ECM, resulting in enhanced tumor accumulation and penetration of ICG to generate strong PTT efficacy and activate CD8+ T cell-mediated antitumor immunity. In addition, Cal/ICG@MPs-triggered CAF regulation enhances tumor infiltration of CD8+ T cells and ameliorates CAF-induced antigen-mediated activation-induced cell death of tumor-specific CD8+ T cells in response to PTT, eliciting long-term antitumor immune memory to inhibit tumor recurrence and metastasis. Our results support Cal/ICG@MPs as a promising drug to improve PTT efficacy in cancer treatment.

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.
