The current methods of reoxygenation to enhance SDT have limitations, prompting reconsideration of the design of therapeutic approaches. Here, we developed a tumor microenvironment-responsive nanoplatform by reducing oxygen consumption to overcome hypoxia-induced resistance to cancer therapy.Methods: A pH-responsive drug-loaded liposome (MI-PEOz-lip) was prepared and used to reduce oxygen consumption, attenuating hypoxia-induced resistance to SDT and thereby improving therapeutic efficiency. Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and fluorescence imaging (FI) of MI-PEOz-lip were evaluated in vitro and in breast xenograft tumor models. The pH-sensitive functionality of MI-PEOz-lip was applied for pH-triggered cargo release, and its capacity was evaluated. The MI-PEOz-lip-mediated SDT effect was compared with other treatments in vivo.Results: MI-PEOz-lip was demonstrated to specifically accumulate in tumors. Metformin molecules in liposomes selectively accumulate in tumors by pH-responsive drug release to inhibit the mitochondrial respiratory chain while releasing IR780 to the tumor area. These pH-responsive liposomes demonstrated PAI and FI imaging capabilities in vitro and in vivo, providing potential for treatment guidance and monitoring. In particular, the prepared MI-PEOz-lip combined with ultrasound irradiation effectively inhibited breast tumors by producing toxic reactive singlet oxygen species (ROS), while the introduction of metformin inhibited mitochondrial respiration and reduced tumor oxygen consumption, resulting in excellent sonodynamic therapy performance compared with other treatments.Conclusion: In this study, we present a novel strategy to achieve high therapeutic efficacy of SDT by the rational design of multifunctional nanoplatforms. This work provides a new strategy that can solve the current problems of inefficient oxygen delivery strategies and weaken resistance to various oxygen-dependent therapies.Keywords: sonodynamic therapy, pH-responsive liposomes, tumor hypoxia relief, metformin, nanomedicineZhang NTan YYan LZhang CXu MGuo HZhuang BZhou LXie XDove Medical Pressarticlesonodynamic therapyph-responsive liposomestumor hypoxia reliefmetforminnanomedicineMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 15, Pp 5687-5700 (2020)
