Vessel embolization is recommended as the first line treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, owing to the imprecise vessel embolization and heterogeneous response performance among patients, its survival benefits are often compromised. Herein, we reported an innovative strategy to extensively embolize the tumor by triggering the coagulation cascade, and predict the embolization effect with vessel density assessment. We synthesized manganese dioxide (MnO)/verteporfin (BPD) nanocomposites, in which BPD bound to the tumor vessel endothelial cells (TVECs) and MnO nanosheets served as the carrier. MnO was reduced to Mn ions and self-assembled with BPD to produce nanoBPD, resulting in enhanced TVECs apoptosis and coagulation cascade compared to that with free BPD. Furthermore, multimodal imaging was used to visualize tumor vessel density, which can be used as a predictor to identify the patients who would benefit from embolization. Our findings describe a promising strategy for both tumor eradication and effect prediction to improve survival benefits in unresectable HCC patients.
血管栓塞被推荐作为不可切除肝细胞癌 (HCC) 的一线治疗方法。然而,由于血管栓塞的不精确性以及患者之间的异质性反应表现,其生存获益常常受到影响。在此,我们报告了一种通过触发凝血级联反应广泛栓塞肿瘤的创新策略,并通过评估血管密度来预测栓塞效果。我们合成了二氧化锰 (MnO)/维替泊芬 (BPD) 纳米复合材料,其中 BPD 结合到肿瘤血管内皮细胞 (TVECs) 上,MnO 纳米片作为载体。MnO 被还原为 Mn 离子并与 BPD 自组装生成纳米 BPD,与游离 BPD 相比,这导致 TVECs 凋亡和凝血级联反应增强。此外,多模态成像用于可视化肿瘤血管密度,可作为预测指标,以识别从栓塞中获益的患者。我们的研究结果描述了一种有前途的肿瘤消除和效果预测策略,以提高不可切除 HCC 患者的生存获益。
