Abstract

En 中文
Low-dose radiotherapy (LDR) has shown significant implications for inflaming the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Surprisingly, we identify that FABP-dependent lipid droplet biogenesis in tumor cells is a key determinant of LDR-evoked cytotoxic and immunostimulatory effects and developed a nanointegrated strategy to promote the antitumor efficacy of LDR through cooperative ferroptosis immunotherapy. Specifically, TCPP-TK-PEG-PAMAM-FA, a nanoscale multicomponent functional polymer with self-assembly capability, was synthesized for cooperatively entrapping hafnium ions (Hf4+) and HIF-1 alpha-inhibiting siRNAs (siHIF-1 alpha). The TCPP@Hf-TK-PEG-PAMAM-FA@siHIF-1 alpha nanoassemblies are specifically taken in by folate receptor-overexpressing tumor cells and activated by the elevated cellular ROS stress. siHIF-1 alpha could readily inhibit the FABP3/7 expression in tumor cells via HIF-1 alpha-FABP3/7 signaling and abolish lipid droplet biogenesis for enhancing the peroxidation susceptibility of membrane lipids, which synergizes with the elevated ROS stress in the context of Hf4+-enhanced radiation exposure and evokes pronounced ferroptotic damage in vital membrane structures. Interestingly, TCPP@Hf-TK-PEG-PAMAM-FA@siHIF-1 alpha-enhanced ferroptotic biomembrane damage also facilitates the exposure of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) to promote post-LDR immunotherapeutic effects, leading to robust tumor regression in vivo. This study offers a nanointegrative approach to boost the antitumor effects of LDR through the utilization of tumor-intrinsic lipid metabolism.
