Abstract
The limited lymphocytes infiltration and immunosuppression in tumor are the major challenges of cancer immunotherapy. The use of immunogenic cell death (ICD)-inducing agents has potential to potentiate antitumor immune responses, but is tremendously hampered by the poor delivery efficiency. Herein, a tumor-activated size-enlargeable bioinspired lipoprotein of oxaliplatin (TA-OBL) is designed to access cancer cells and boost the ICD-induced antitumor immunity for synergizing immune-checkpoint blockades (ICBs)-mediated immunotherapy. TA-OBL is constructed by integrating a legumain-sensitive melittin conjugate for improving intratumoral permeation and cancer cell accessibility, a pH-sensitive phospholipid for triggering size-enlargement and drug release in intracellular acidic environments, a nitroreductase-sensitive hydrophobic oxaliplatin prodrug (N-OXP) for eliciting antitumor immunity into the bioinspired nano-sized lipoprotein system. TA-OBL treatment produced robust antitumor immune responses and its combination with ICBs demonstrates strong therapeutic benefits with delayed tumor growth and extended survival rate, making it a promising delivery nanoplatform to elicit antitumor immunity for cancer immunotherapy.
