A biomimetic nanoplatform for customized photothermal therapy of HNSCC evaluated on patient-derived xenograft models
摘要INTRODUCTIONPhotothermal therapy (PTT), a noninvasive therapy that does not suffer from restriction of chemo-resistance or radio-resistance, has demonstrated promising prospects for cancer treatment.1–2 In the case of superficial tumors such as head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), near-infrared (NIR) light responsive PTT is preferable due to effective photo penetration.3–5 Besides direct damage to cancer cells, PTT has also been shown to promote immunogenic cell death (ICD), a process that causes cancer cells to release tumor-associated antigens, which further trigger the anti-tumor immune response,6–7 generating the cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) to eliminate residual tumor cells and inhibit its metastasis.
