Certain types of cationic metal ions,such as Mn^(2+)are able to activate immune functions via the stimulator of interferon genes(STING)pathway,showing potential applications in eliciting antitumor immunity.How anionic ions interact with immune cells remains largely unknown.Herein,selecting from a range of cationic and anionic ions,we were excited to discover that MoO_(4)^(2-)could act as a cGAS-STING agonist and further confirmed the capability of Mn^(2+)to activate the cGAS-STING pathway.Inspired by such findings,we synthesized manganese molybdate nanoparticles with polyethylene glycol modification(MMP NDs)for cancer metalloimmunotherapy.Meanwhile,MMP NDs could consume glutathione(GSH)over-expressed in tumors and induce ferroptosis owing to high-valence Mo and Mn to elicit tumor-specific immune responses,which was further amplified by MMP-triggered the cGAS-STING activation.In turn,activated CD8+T cells to secrete high levels of interferonγ(IFN-γ)and reduced GPX4 expression in tumor cells to trigger ferroptosis-specific lipid peroxidation,which constituted a“cycle”of therapy.As a result,the metalloimmunotherapy with systemic administration of MMP NDs offered a remarkable tumor inhibition effect for a variety of tumor models.Our work for the first time discovered the ability of anionic metal ions to activate the immune system and rationally designed bimetallic oxide nanostructures as a multifunctional therapeutic nanoplatform for tumor immunotherapy.
Sodium percarbonate(Na_(2)CO_(3)·1.5H_(2)O_(2),SPC)has been extensively employed as a solid substitute of H_(2)O_(2)for Fenton process in water treatment,because of its high stability during the production,transport,storage and usage.In addition,SPC can be applied in a wider range of work pH,it is also applied as a buffer in Fenton reaction for preventing a drop in pH.Herein,we have synthesized basic copper molybdate(BCM)nanoblocks with the molecular formula of Cu_(3)(MoO_(4))_(2)(OH)_(2)as an efficient and heterogeneous catalyst for antibiotics degradation via percarbonate activation.First,fully physical characterizations confirmed BCM nanocomposite exhibited a structure of nanoblocks.We also found that BCM/SPC system could work in a much wider pH range,compared with H_(2)O_(2).Then,BCM/SPC system presented a good anti-interference ability for natural organic matter in OTC degradation.EPR results and Quenching tests confirmed that the co-presence of·CO_(3)-,·O_(2)-,1O_(2)and·OH in BCM/SPC system.
