Near-infrared-II Ag 2 S quantum dot probes targeting podoplanin enhance immunotherapy in oral squamous cell carcinoma.
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy 2023 December 29
Partial epithelial-mesenchymal transition (pEMT) plays a vital role in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cervical lymph node metastasis and tumor immune escape as an immune barrier. However, targeted interventions for pEMT have yet to be established. In this study, we generated an αPDPN-Ag2 S probe by modifying a Podoplanin(PDPN) monoclonal antibody on the surface of near infrared (NIR)-II Ag2 S quantum dots (QDs) with carboxyl groups through an amide reaction. Then, we evaluated its in vivo targeting ability, therapeutic efficacy of eliminating pEMT using αPDPN-Ag2 S-mediated NIR-II photoimmunotherapy (PIT) and biological safety. Here, we found that pEMT is related to CD8 + T-cell infiltration in our human OSCC tissue microarray. Compared with PdpnWT SCC7, the slower growth rate of subcutaneous graft tumors implanted with PdpnKD SCC7 was associated with a change in the tumor immune microenvironment (TIM) in an immunocompetent C3H/HeJ mouse model. In vitro, αPDPN-Ag2S plus NIR 808 nm laser irradiation induced SCC7 cell death. In vivo, NIR-II imaging results show that the αPDPN-Ag2 S probe has a good active-targeting ability in a 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO)-induced C57 mouse OSCC model and C3H/HeJ SCC7 subcutaneous graft tumor model. Elimination of pEMT cells by NIR-II αPDPN-Ag2 S probe-mediated PIT significantly reversed the local immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and enhanced PD-1 immunotherapy efficacy. The safety profiles of αPDPN-Ag2 S in BALB/c mice were also acceptable. Thus, αPDPN-Ag2 S has important clinical translational value in predicting the risk of cervical lymph node metastasis. Importantly, our study proposed a new way to improve the efficacy of tumor immunotherapy.
