Glucose oxidase and MnO 2 functionalized liposome for catalytic radiosensitization enhanced synergistic breast cancer therapy

In recent years, the integration of radiotherapy and nanocatalytic medicine has gained widespread attention in the treatment of breast cancer. Herein, the glucose oxidase (GOx) and MnO nanoparticles co-modified multifunctional liposome of GOx-MnO @Lip was constructed for enhanced radiotherapy. Introduction of GOx would not only elevate the glucose consumption to starve the cancer cells, but also increased the endogenous H O level. Meanwhile, high intracellular GSH concentration facilitated the release of Mn to amplify the cytotoxic ·OH through cascade catalytic reactions within the tumor microenvironment, resulting in a favorable tumor suppression rate of 74.45 %. Furthermore, the blood biochemical and blood routine demonstrated that GOx-MnO @Lip had no obvious toxic side effects. Therefore, this work provided a potential vehicle for synergistic cancer starving therapy, chemodynamic therapy and radiotherapy for improving therapeutic efficacy of breast cancer.
