Lactate oxidase (LOX) is a natural enzyme that efficiently consumes lactate. In the presence of oxygen, LOX can catalyse the formation of pyruvate and hydrogen peroxide (HO) from lactate. This process led to acidity alleviation, hypoxia, and a further increase in oxidative stress, alleviating the immunosuppressive state of the tumour microenvironment (TME). However, the high cost of LOX preparation and purification, poor stability, and systemic toxicity limited its application in tumour therapy. Therefore, the rational application of drug delivery systems can protect LOX from the organism's environment and maintain its catalytic activity. This paper reviews various LOX-based drug-carrying systems, including inorganic nanocarriers, organic nanocarriers, and inorganic-organic hybrid nanocarriers, as well as other non-nanocarriers, which have been used for tumour therapy in recent years. In addition, this area's challenges and potential for the future are highlighted.
乳酸氧化酶(LOX)是一种能够有效消耗乳酸的天然酶。在氧气存在的情况下,LOX 可以催化乳酸转化为丙酮酸和过氧化氢(HO)。这一过程导致酸度减轻、缺氧和氧化应激进一步增加,从而减轻肿瘤微环境(TME)的免疫抑制状态。然而,LOX 制备和纯化成本高、稳定性差和全身毒性限制了其在肿瘤治疗中的应用。因此,合理应用药物输送系统可以保护 LOX 免受机体环境的影响并维持其催化活性。本文综述了近年来用于肿瘤治疗的各种基于 LOX 的载药系统,包括无机纳米载体、有机纳米载体和无机-有机杂化纳米载体以及其他非纳米载体。此外,还强调了该领域的挑战和未来的潜力。
