Biomimetic radiosensitizers unlock radiogenetics for local interstitial radiotherapy to activate systematic immune responses and resist tumor metastasis
BACKGROUND: Similar to other local therapeutic methods, local interstitial radiotherapy (IRT) also suffers from insufficient systematic immune activation, resulting in tumor metastasis. RESULTS: Mn-based IRT radiosensitizers consisting of (131)I, MnO(2) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) ((131)I-MnO(2)-...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: Similar to other local therapeutic methods, local interstitial radiotherapy (IRT) also suffers from insufficient systematic immune activation, resulting in tumor metastasis. RESULTS: Mn-based IRT radiosensitizers consisting of (131)I, MnO(2) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) ((131)I-MnO(2)-BSA) were engineered. Such Mn-based IRT radiosensitizers successfully unlocked radiogenetics to magnify systematic immune responses of local IRT via remodeling hypoxic and immunosuppressive microenvironments and resist tumor metastasis. The MnO(2) in (131)I-MnO(2)-BSA caused decomposition of H(2)O(2) enriched in tumors to generate O(2) for alleviating hypoxic microenvironment and removing tumor resistances to IRT. Concurrently, hypoxia mitigation by such radiosensitizers-unlocked radiogenetics can effectively remodel immunosuppressive microenvironment associated with regulatory T (Treg) cells and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) infiltration inhibition to induce immunogenic cell death (ICD), which, along with hypoxia mitigation, activates systematic immune responses. More intriguingly, (131)I-MnO(2)-BSA-enabled radiogenetics can upregulate PD-L1 expression, which allows anti-PD-L1-combined therapy to exert a robust antitumor effect on primary tumors and elicit memory effects to suppress metastatic tumors in both tumor models (4T1 and CT26). CONCLUSIONS: IRT radiosensitizer-unlocked radiogenetics and the corresponding design principle provide a general pathway to address the insufficient systematic immune responses of local IRT.
