摘要
The induction of antitumor immunity by tumor antigens released from cancer cells following regional photothermal therapy(PTT)alone may not be adequate for achieving complete tumor elimination.Combination therapy with immune adjuvants enhances antitumor immune responses,but faces challenges such as targeting deficiencies,systemic toxicity,and uncontrolled release behavior.Herein,we introduce a novel dual-functional hybrid membrane nanoparticle(HM-NP)incorporating gold nanorods(GNRs)and a thermally responsive polymer shell.HM-NP demonstrates exceptional homotypic targeting efficacy beneath the tumor cell membrane(TM),leading to substantial tumor accumulation.Upon in situ near-infrared(NIR)stimulation,GNRs within HM-NP generate heat,triggering the burst release of HM by facilitating the contraction and disintegration of the thermally responsive polymer shell.HM-NP exhibits excellent photothermal conversion efficiency under NIR irradiation,enabling effective destruction of primary tumors,release of tumor-associated antigens,and stimulation of potent anti-cancer immune.Simultaneously,the immune responses are strengthened by TM and Escherichia coli membrane(EM)through promoting the maturation of antigen presenting cells(APCs)and activating cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTLs).Moreover,the use of polymer shells enables efficient cancer therapy with minimal host clearance and adverse effects.This photothermally triggered immunotherapy holds promise for precise and personalized treatment of tumors.
