摘要 | As an ideal drug carrier, it should possess high drug loading and encapsulation efficiency and precise drug targeting release. Herein, we utilized a template-guided self-weaving technology of phase-separated silk fibroin (SF) in reverse microemulsion (RME) to fabricate a kind of hyaluronic acid (HA) coated SF nanocage (HA-gNCs) for drug delivery of cancer immunotherapy. Due to the hollow structure, HA-gNCs were capable of simultaneous encapsulation of the anti-inflammatory drug betamethasone phosphate (BetP) and the immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) agent PD-L1 antibody (alpha PD-L1) efficiently. Another point worth noting was that the thiocarbonate cross-linkers used to strengthen the SF shell of HA-gNCs could be quickly broken by overexpressed glutathione (GSH) to reach responsive drug release inside tumor tissues accompanied by hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production in one step. The synergistic effect of released BetP and generated H2S guaranteed chronological modulation of the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (ITME) to amplify the therapeutic effect of alpha PD-L1 for the growth, metastasis, and recurrence of tumors. This study highlighted the exceptional prospect of HA-gNCs as a self-assistance platform for cancer drug delivery. |
