Multifunctional Au Modified Ti3C2-MXene for Photothermal/Enzyme Dynamic/Immune Synergistic Therapy br

Ti3C2-MXene-based composites provide multifunctional interfaces in diagnosis and treatment of tumors. Herein, we proposed a multifunctional nanoplatform based on Ti3C2-MXene- Au nanocomposites, which combines photothermal properties and peroxidase-like activity, accomplishing synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT) and enzyme dynamic therapy (EDT) accompanied by photoacoustic (PA) and thermal dual-mode imaging in vivo. Furthermore, PTT induces immunogenic cell death, and EDT promotes cell apoptosis, facilitating dendritic cell (DC) maturation and T cell infiltration into the tumor. On this basis, the antibody OX40 (alpha OX40) was utilized to further contribute immune therapy for reversing the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by activating CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. In summary, a triune of PTT/EDT/antitumor immune therapy is achieved by combining Ti3C2- MXene-Au nanocomposites and alpha OX40, which possesses several strong features of good biocompatibility, NIR-controlled targeting, significant cancer cell killing, and satisfactory biosafety in vitro and in vivo. Our work might highlight the promising application of MXene-based nanoplatforms for cancer therapy.
