Xiao, Wu-Yi published the artcileClick Reaction-Assisted Peptide Immune Checkpoint Blockade for Solid Tumor Treatment, Name: Dbco-maleimide, the publication is ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces (2020), 12(36), 40042-40051, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
One of the major challenges of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is the poor penetration of antibody for solid tumor treatment. Herein, peptides with deeper penetration capability are used to develop a click reaction-assisted peptide immune checkpoint blockade (CRICB) strategy that could in situ construct assemblies, enabling enhanced accumulation and prolonged PD-L1 occupancy, ultimately realizing high-performance tumor inhibition. First, the free DBCO-modified targeting peptide (TP) efficiently recognizes and binds PD-L1 in a deep solid tumor. Upon a reagent-free click reaction with a subsequently introduced azide-tethered assembled peptide (AP), the click reaction results in spontaneous self-aggregation in situ with enhanced accumulation and prolonged occupancy. In addition, the penetration of TP-AP (121.2 ¡À 15.5¦Ìm) is significantly enhanced compared with that of an antibody (19.9 ¡À 5.6¦Ìm) in a solid tumor tissue. More importantly, significant immunotherapy effects and negligible side effects are observed in 4T1 and CT26 tumor-bearing mice models treated with TP-AP, suggesting the high-performance tumor inhibition attributed to the CRICB strategy. In summary, this CRICB strategy manifest the preferable effects of immune checkpoint blockade, thereby extending the biomedical application of assembling peptides.
