Immune-Targeting Nanoparticles Carrying Cisplatin for Combined Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy in Pancreatic Cancer

Updated

Abstract

High drug-loading lipid nanoparticles (hDDLN) were developed to improve cisplatin delivery and efficacy.

  • Multicarboxyl dendritic lipopeptides were created to enhance cisplatin loading through platinum coordination.
  • DG3 was identified as the optimal lipopeptide, resulting in LNPs with good stability and delivery efficiency.
  • Pt/hDDLN demonstrated a superior therapeutic index compared to conventional liposomes in both laboratory and animal studies.
  • Combining Pt/hDDLN with STING agonists improved immunotherapy by increasing cytotoxic T lymphocyte infiltration and promoting dendritic cell maturation.
  • The mechanism involved activation of dendritic cells through a specific signaling pathway, enhancing pro-inflammatory responses.
