The development of novel sonosensitizers with outstanding reactive oxygen (ROS) generation capacity and great biocompatibility poses a significant challenge for the clinical practice of sonodynamic therapy (SDT). In this work, hemoglobin (Hb) with natural metalloporphyrin was first shown to possess great potential as a sonosensitizer. Compared with traditional organic sonosensitizers, Hb had satisfactory sono-sensitizing efficiency because four the porphyrin molecules were separated by four polypeptide chains. This effectively avoided the problem of low ROS quantum yield caused by the stacking of hydrophobic porphyrins. Meanwhile, Hb is an efficient and safe oxygen carrier that may release O at hypoxic tumors site, which improved tumor oxygenation and subsequently enhanced SDT efficacy. Therefore, Hb was integrated with zeolitic imidazolate framework 8 (ZIF-8) to form a nanoplatform that demonstrated a potent suppression effect on deep-seated tumors under ultrasound irradiation.
新型声敏剂的开发具有出色的活性氧(ROS)生成能力和良好的生物相容性,这对声动力学治疗(SDT)的临床实践提出了重大挑战。在这项工作中,首次表明具有天然金属卟啉的血红蛋白(Hb)具有作为声敏剂的巨大潜力。与传统的有机声敏剂相比,由于四个卟啉分子被四个多肽链隔开,Hb 具有令人满意的超声敏化效率。这有效地避免了由于疏水性卟啉堆积而导致的低 ROS 量子产率的问题。同时,Hb 是一种高效且安全的氧载体,它可能在缺氧肿瘤部位释放 O,从而改善肿瘤氧合,进而增强 SDT 疗效。因此,Hb 与沸石咪唑骨架 8(ZIF-8)结合形成纳米平台,在超声照射下对深部肿瘤具有强大的抑制作用。
