An Injectable Hydrogel for Enhanced FeGA-Based Chemodynamic Therapy by Increasing Intracellular Acidity

Abstract: Hydroxyl radical (•OH)-mediated chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an emerging antitumor strategy, however, acid deficiency in the tumor microenvironment (TME) hampers its efficacy. In this study, a new injectable hydrogel was developed as an acid-enhanced CDT system (AES) for improving tumor therapy. The AES contains iron–gallic acid nanoparticles (FeGA) and α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (α-CHCA). FeGA converts near-infrared laser into heat, which results in agarose degradation and consequent α-CHCA release. Then… Show more

“…Different concentrations of GA-Fe solutions (0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 mg•mL −1 ) were placed in the centrifuge tube to test the photothermal properties of GA-Fe nanoparticles. Then they were irradiated with an 808 nm laser for 10 min with 1.0 and 2.0 W•cm −2 laser, and the temperature values were obtained every 10 s. 19 2.2.9. Intracellular Endocytosis Analysis.…”

“…17,18 The photothermal effect of GA-Fe nanoparticles and the reducibility of GA in an acidic environment promote the catalytic activity and continuous supply of Fe 2+ , further driving the Fenton reaction and promoting ROS accumulation. 19 In addition, the accumulation of lactic acid by EMB-targeted SLC16A1/3 enhanced the oxidative stress effects of GA-Fe nanoparticles.…”

“…However, chemotherapy has significant limitations due to systemic distribution [45] . In contrast, CDT is a specific treatment for tumor [61] . CDT consumes endogenous H 2 O 2 through Fenton or Fenton‐like reactions to generate cytotoxic ROS, especially hydroxyl radicals, which can inhibit cell growth and kill tumor cells [62] .…”
