Nanozyme-based immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducers that effectively induce a strong immune response via enzyme-like process have attracted great attention, but how to ensure controllable active sites and maximize site utilization remains a problem. Here, we report a structurally well-defined and highly functional single-site copper(I) nanomodulators termed CuNTD, constructed by precisely anchoring atomically dispersed self-assembly S-Cu(I)-S sites onto a two-dimensional TiC surface. Leveraging Cu with a higher catalytic efficiency than Cu, CuNTD generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) storms through photothermal-enhanced cascade catalysis, further inducing mitochondrial dysfunction, ferroptosis and cuproptosis. Multifunctional CuNTD triggers strong ICD through cascade-regulatory pathways of photothermal-amplified ROS storms, cuproptosis and ferroptosis, effectively promoting dendritic cell maturation while reducing monotherapies side effects and resistance. In vivo, CuNTD combined with FDA-approved immunoadjuvants significantly prolong the survival of mice. With its demonstrated biosafety and high efficiency as an ICD inducer, this study provides a promising framework for advancing augmented tumor immunotherapy with significant clinical potential.
基于纳米酶的免疫原性细胞死亡(ICD)诱导剂通过类似酶的过程有效诱导强烈的免疫反应,已引起广泛关注,但如何确保可控的活性位点并最大限度地提高位点利用率仍是一个问题。在此,我们报道了一种结构明确且功能高度强大的单位点铜(I)纳米调节剂,称为CuNTD,它是通过将原子分散的自组装S-Cu(I)-S位点精确锚定在二维TiC表面构建而成。利用催化效率高于铜的铜,CuNTD通过光热增强级联催化产生活性氧(ROS)风暴,进一步诱导线粒体功能障碍、铁死亡和铜死亡。多功能CuNTD通过光热放大的ROS风暴、铜死亡和铁死亡的级联调节途径触发强烈的ICD,有效促进树突状细胞成熟,同时减少单一疗法的副作用和耐药性。在体内,CuNTD与FDA批准的免疫佐剂联合使用可显著延长小鼠的生存期。鉴于其作为ICD诱导剂所展示的生物安全性和高效性,本研究为推进具有重大临床潜力的增强型肿瘤免疫治疗提供了一个有前景的框架。
