Cancer therapeutic vaccines are powerful tools for immune system activation and eliciting protective responses against tumors. However, their efficacy has often been hindered by weak and slow immune responses. Here, the authors introduce an immunization strategy employing senescent erythrocytes to facilitate the accumulation of immunomodulatory zinc-Alum/ovalbumin (ZAlum/OVA) nanovaccines within both the spleen and solid tumors by temporarily saturating liver macrophages. This approach sets the stage for boosted cancer metalloimmunotherapy through a cascade immune activation. The accumulation of ZAlum/OVA nanovaccines in the spleen substantially enhances autophagy-dependent antigen presentation in dendritic cells, rapidly initiating OVA-specific T-cell responses against solid tumors. Concurrently, ZAlum/OVA nanovaccines accumulated in the tumor microenvironment trigger immunogenic cell death, leading to the induction of individualized tumor-associated antigen-specific T cell responses and increased T cell infiltration. This erythrocyte-assisted cascade immune activation using ZAlum/OVA nanovaccines results in rapid and robust antitumor immunity induction, holding great potential for clinical cancer metalloimmunotherapy.
癌症治疗性疫苗是激活免疫系统并引发针对肿瘤的保护反应的有力工具。然而,它们的疗效常常受到弱且缓慢的免疫反应的阻碍。在这里,作者介绍了一种免疫策略,该策略利用衰老的红细胞通过暂时饱和肝巨噬细胞来促进免疫调节锌-明矾/卵清蛋白(ZAlum/OVA)纳米疫苗在脾脏和实体瘤中的积累。这种方法通过级联免疫激活为增强的癌症金属免疫疗法奠定了基础。ZAlum/OVA 纳米疫苗在脾脏中的积累大大增强了树突状细胞中依赖自噬的抗原呈递,迅速引发针对实体瘤的 OVA 特异性 T 细胞反应。同时,在肿瘤微环境中积累的 ZAlum/OVA 纳米疫苗触发免疫原性细胞死亡,导致诱导个体肿瘤相关抗原特异性 T 细胞反应和增加 T 细胞浸润。这种使用 ZAlum/OVA 纳米疫苗的红细胞辅助级联免疫激活导致快速和强大的抗肿瘤免疫诱导,为临床癌症金属免疫疗法提供了巨大的潜力。
