doi: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.09.022

Figure Lengend Snippet: Schematic diagram of the anti-tumor mechanism of dual-target-degrading NP-PROTACs. ( A ) β-catenin-targeting LAVTAT and STAT3-targeting SAVTAT were conjugated with DSPE-PEG 2000 -SH through disulfide bonds, jointly self-assembling into NP-PROTACs. ( B ) Upon intravenous injection and accumulation in CRC models, NP-PROTACs released LAVTAT and SAVTAT intracellularly due to cleaved disulfide bonds. Co-degradation of β-catenin and STAT3 triggered cell cycle arrest and apoptosis on CRC cells and improved immune microenvironment. Briefly, the cytotoxic function of CD8 + T cells was activated; an increase in the ratio of M1-type macrophages and a decrease in the ratio of M2-type macrophages were observed; the infiltration of CD103 + DC cells was increased.

TuBo (10 5 ) or 4T1 (10 4 ) mock and p140Cap cells were inoculated into the fat pad of 8-weeks-old female BALB/c mice. Tumor growth was monitored and tumor size was measured every two days from tumor onset (TuBo, n = 11; 4T1, n = 5; data are represented for n = x mices, two-tailed unpaired t test). For metastasis analysis in TuBo mock and p140Cap tumor-bearing mice, tumors were surgically removed when they reached 10 mm diameter and mice were kept alive. After 5 weeks, mice were sacrified and lungs were explanted and analyzed. For metastasis analysis of 4T1 mock and p140Cap tumors-bearing mice, lungs were analyzed 22 and 30 days post-injection for mock and p140Cap cells, respectively. Representative dot plots show the number of lung metastasis as mean ± SEM (Standard Error of the Mean; TuBo, n = 5; 4T1, n = 10; 2way ANOVA). b , c Flow cytometry analysis for M1- and M2-macrophages, CD4 + and CD8 + T-Lymphocytes, Natural Killer cells in tumor-bearing mice.
