A programmable releasing versatile hydrogel platform boosts systemic immune responses via sculpting tumor immunogenicity and reversing tolerogenic dendritic cells.
Biomaterials 2023 December 21
Immunogenicity improvement is a valuable strategy for tumor immunotherapy. However, immunosuppressive factors bestow tolerogenic phenotype on tumor-infiltrating DCs, which exhibit weak antigen presentation and strong anti-inflammatory cytokines secretion abilities, limiting the effectiveness of tumor immunotherapy even if the tumor has adequate immunogenicity. Herein, we designed a programmable releasing versatile hydrogel platform (PIVOT) to sculpt tumor immunogenicity, increase intratumoral DCs and cDC1s abundance, and reverse the tolerogenic phenotype of DCs, thus promoting their maturation for boosting innate and adaptive immune responses. Responsive to tumoral reactive oxygen species (ROS), the hydrogel splits and promotes the activation of DCs and macrophages. Then, oxaliplatin is first released from PIVOT to sculpt tumor immunogenicity by inducing immunogenic cell death (ICD) and causing tumoral DNA fragments exposure simultaneously. Subsequently, the impaired DNA fragments bind to high mobility group protein 1 (HMGB1) forming the DNA-HMGB1 complex. Moreover, exogenous FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (Flt-3L) recruits masses of DCs, especially cDC1s, which will endocytose the complex benefiting from TIM-3 blockade (αTIM3) that can reverse tolerogenic DCs. Finally, the endocytosis activates the cGAS-STING pathway of cDC1s, which promotes the secretion of type I IFN that triggers innate immune responses, and CXCL9 which recruits CD8+ effector T cells to initiate the following adaptive immune response against tumor progress. PIVOT achieves nearly 90 % tumor growth inhibition and induces systemic antitumor immune responses. In conclusion, this study focuses on ICD-mediated tumor immunogenicity sculpture and nucleic acid endocytosis-involved tolerogenic DCs reversal, providing a novel paradigm for enhancing DCs-based antitumor immune responses.
