Abstract
The integration of immunotherapy and standard chemotherapy holds great promise for enhanced anticancer effects. In this study, we prepared a pH- and glutathione (GSH)-sensitive manganese-doped mesoporous silicon (MMSNs) based drug delivery system by integrating paclitaxel (PTX) and anti-programmed cell death-ligand 1 antibody (aPD-L1), and encapsulating with polydopamine (PDA) for chemoimmunosynergic treatment of ovarian cancer cells. The nanosystem was degraded in response to the tumor weakly acidic and reductive microenvironment. The Mn2+ produced by degradation can be used as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to provide visual exposure to tumor tissue. The released PTX can not only kill tumor cells directly, but also induce immunogenic death (ICD) of tumor cells, which can play a synergistic therapeutic effect with aPD-L1. Therefore, our study is expected to provide a promising strategy for improving the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy and the detection rate of cancer.
