Abstract:
Hypoxic tumor microenvironment (TME) is closely linked to tumor progression, heterogeneity and immune suppression. Therefore, the development of effective methods to overcome hypoxia and substantially enhance the immunotherapy efficacy remains a desirable goal. Herein, we engineered a biocompatible Au core/Pt shell nanoparticles (Au@PtNPs) to reoxygenate the TME by reacting with endogenous H2O2. Treatment with Au@PtNPs appeared to improve oxygen in intracellular environments and decrease hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha expression. Furthermore, the integration of high catalytic efficiency of Au@PtNPs with cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cell immunotherapy, could lead to significantly improve the effect of CIK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. These results suggest great potential of Au@PtNPs for regulation of the hypoxic TME and enhance immune cell mediated anti-tumor immunity.
