Mn-phenolic networks as synergistic carrier for STING agonists in tumor immunotherapy

, which serves as a sensitizer of the STING pathway, resulting in significant STING pathway activation. Upon systemic administration, these nanoparticles efficiently accumulate within tumors. The activation of STING pathways not only induces immunogenic cell death (ICD) in tumor cells but also orchestrates systemic remodeling of the immunosuppressive microenvironment. This includes the promotion of cytokine release, dendritic cell maturation, and T cell infiltration, leading to pronounced suppression of tumor growth. Combining with the excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, this Mn-based nanocarrier represents a promising strategy for enhancing tumor immunotherapy through the cGAS-STING pathway.
