Graphical Abstract

A multifunctional AuS/C-TiO2 sonosensitizer with an excited band gap and high glucose oxidation activity is fabricated and used to evoke massive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and robust endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress for reinforcing sonodynamic therapy-immunogenic cell death against breast cancer.

Abstract

Facilitated by reactive oxygen species (ROS)-involved therapies, tumor cells undergo immunogenic cell death (ICD) to stimulate long-term immunity response. However, it is hard to trigger abundant and large-scale ICD for satisfactory cancer immunotherapy. Herein, a multifunctional sonosensitizer that consists of Au single atoms and clusters anchored on TiO2 nanosheets (named AuS/C-TiO2) is reported for augmented sonodynamic therapy (SDT) and glucose depletion, which ultimately induce robust ICD due to the improved ROS generation and strong endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The synergy effect between Au cluster/single atom with TiO2 nanosheets intensifies apoptosis and ICD pathways to inhibit 80% of tumor cells through in vivo analyses. Furthermore, immune cells in vivo analyses verify the effectiveness of AuS/C-TiO2 sonosensitizer towards the induction of antitumor immunity. This study thus reveals that simultaneous presence of ROS generation and strong ER stress can efficiently evoke a strong ICD-mediated immune response.
