Background:: The combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemotherapy has proven to be a promising strategy for cancer treatment. Various nanomaterials have shown great potential in combination therapy, including gold, graphene oxide, iron oxide, and other nanoparticles. However, their undefinable toxicity in vivo greatly slowed down their development for clinical applications. Objective: The present work aimed to develop a multifunctional nanoparticle for chemo-photothermal therapy composed of acknowledged biocompatible materials. Methods: A novel biocompatible nanoparticle (HIT-NPs) was self-assembled through the intrinsic interaction between D-α-tocopherol Succinate (TOS), human serum albumin (HSA) and indocyanine green (ICG). Doxorubicin (DOX) was then loaded due to the ion pairing between DOX and TOS. The feasibility of combined chemo-photothermal therapy induced by DOX-loaded HIT-NPs was carefully evaluated. Results: In vitro, HIT-NPs showed no cytotoxicity on human normal liver cells (HL-7702 cells) but obvious killing effects murine breast cancer cells (4T1 cells). The combined chemo-photothermal therapeutic effect on 4T1 cells was successfully obtained. DOX-loaded HIT-NPs could effectively accumulate in 4T1 subcutaneous tumors after intravenous injection, and the tumor temperature rapidly increased under laser exposure, indicating the feasibility of PTT in vivo. Conclusion: The self-assembled HIT-NPs could provide a promising platform for combined chemo-photothermal cancer therapy with full biocompatibility.

Abstract Background: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease in oral cavity owing to bacterial infection. Photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) have many advantages for antibacterial treatment. As an excellent photosensitizer, indocyanine green (ICG) shows prominent photothermal and photodynamic performances. However, it is difficult to pass through the negatively charged bacterial cell membrane, thus limits its antibacterial efficacy for periodontitis treatment.Results: In this work, we developed a nanosystem from self-assembly of ICG and polycationic brush for synergistic PTT and PDT against periodontitis. A star-shaped polycationic brush, poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (sPDMA), was synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of DMA monomer from bromo-substituted β-cyclodextrin initiator (CD-Br). ICG was then self-assembled with sPDMA to form ICG-loaded sPDMA (sPDMA@ICG) nanoparticles (NPs), and the physicochemical properties of these NPs were characterized in detail. In vitro antibacterial effects of sPDMA@ICG NPs were evaluated in porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg), one of the recognized periodontitis pathogens, and in vivo anti-periodontitis effects of NPs were investigated in a rat periodontitis model. Benefiting from the unique brush-shaped architecture of sPDMA polycation, sPDMA@ICG NPs efficiently delivered ICG into the bacterial cells through promoting their adsorption and penetration abilities, and also exhibited effective antibacterial and anti-periodontitis actions via synergistic PTT and PDT both in vitro and in vivo.Conclusions: This work developed a promising nano-photosensitizer for synergistic PTT and PDT for antibacterial and periodontitis treatments in clinic.

BACKGROUND: Bladder cancer is the ninth most common cancer in men. 70% of these tumors are classified as non-muscle invasive bladder cancer and those patients receive 6 intravesical instillations with Mycobacterium bovis BCG after transurethral resection. However, 30% of patients show recurrences after treatment and experience severe side effects that often lead to therapy discontinuation. Recently, another vaccine strain, Salmonella enterica typhi Ty21a, demonstrated promising antitumor activity in vivo. Here we focus on increasing bacterial retention in the bladder in order to reduce the number of instillations required and improve antitumor activity. OBJECTIVE: To increase the binding of Ty21a to the bladder wall by surface labeling of the bacteria with adhesion protein FimH and to study its effect in a bladder cancer mouse model. METHODS: Binding of Ty21a with surface-labeled FimH to the bladder wall was analyzed in vitro and in vivo. The antitumor effect of a single instillation of Ty21a+FimH in treatment was determined in a survival experiment. RESULTS: FimH-labeled Ty21a showed significant (p <  0.0001) improved binding to mouse and human cell lines in vitro. Furthermore, FimH labeled bacteria showed ∼5x more binding to the bladder than controls in vivo. Enhanced binding to the bladder via FimH labeling induced a modest improvement in median but not in overall mice survival. CONCLUSIONS: FimH labeling of Ty21a significantly improved binding to bladder tumor cells in vitro and the bladder wall in vivo. The improved binding leads to a modest increase in median survival in a single bladder cancer mouse study.

AbstractThe prognosis for patients with metastatic bladder cancer (BCa) is poor, and it is not improved by current treatments. RNA-binding motif protein X-linked (RBMX) are involved in the regulation of the malignant progression of various tumors. However, the role of RBMX in BCa tumorigenicity and progression remains unclear. In this study, we found that RBMX was significantly downregulated in BCa tissues, especially in muscle-invasive BCa tissues. RBMX expression was negatively correlated with tumor stage, histological grade and poor patient prognosis. Functional assays demonstrated that RBMX inhibited BCa cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion in vitro and suppressed tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Mechanistic investigations revealed that hnRNP A1 was an RBMX-binding protein. RBMX competitively inhibited the combination of the RGG motif in hnRNP A1 and the sequences flanking PKM exon 9, leading to the formation of lower PKM2 and higher PKM1 levels, which attenuated the tumorigenicity and progression of BCa. Moreover, RBMX inhibited aerobic glycolysis through hnRNP A1-dependent PKM alternative splicing and counteracted the PKM2 overexpression-induced aggressive phenotype of the BCa cells. In conclusion, our findings indicate that RBMX suppresses BCa tumorigenicity and progression via an hnRNP A1-mediated PKM alternative splicing mechanism. RBMX may serve as a novel prognostic biomarker for clinical intervention in BCa.

AbstractIn spite of the tumor microenvironments responsive cancer therapy based on Fenton reaction (i.e., chemodynamic therapy, CDT) has been attracted more attentions in recent years, the limited Fenton reaction efficiency is the important obstacle to further application in clinic. Herein, we synthesized novel FeO/MoS2 nanocomposites modified by bovine serum albumin (FeO/MoS2-BSA) with boosted Fenton reaction efficiency by the synergistic effect of co-catalyze and photothermal effect of MoS2 nanosheets triggered by the second near-infrared (NIR II) light. In the tumor microenvironments, the MoS2 nanosheets not only can accelerate the conversion of Fe3+ ions to Fe2+ ions by Mo4+ ions on their surface to improve Fenton reaction efficiency, but also endow FeO/MoS2-BSA with good photothermal performances for photothermal-enhanced CDT and photothermal therapy (PTT). Consequently, benefiting from the synergetic-enhanced CDT/PTT, the tumors are eradicated completely in vivo. This work provides innovative synergistic strategy for constructing nanocomposites for highly efficient CDT.
