Necroptosis‐Mediated Synergistic Photodynamic and Glutamine‐Metabolic Therapy Enabled by a Biomimetic Targeting Nanosystem for Cholangiocarcinoma

Targeted delivery of glutamine metabolism inhibitors holds promise for cholangiocarcinoma therapy, yet effective delivery vehicles remain a challenge. This study reports the development of a biomimetic nanosystem, termed R-CM@MSN@BC, integrating mesoporous organosilicon nanoparticles with reactive oxygen species-responsive diselenide bonds for controlled release of the glutamine metabolism inhibitor bis-2-(5-phenylacetamido-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl) ethyl sulfide (BPTES) and the photosensitizer Ce6. Erythrocyte membrane coating, engineered with Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptides, not only enhanced biocompatibility but also improved tumor targeting and tissue penetration. Upon laser irradiation, R-CM@MSN@BC executed both photodynamic and glutamine-metabolic therapies, inducing necroptosis in tumor cells and triggering significant immunogenic cell death. Time-of-flight mass cytometry analysis revealed that R-CM@MSN@BC can remodel the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by polarizing M1-type macrophages, reducing infiltration of M2-type and CX3CR1⁺ macrophages, and decreasing T cell exhaustion, thereby increasing the effectiveness of anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 immunotherapy. This strategy proposed in this study presents a viable and promising approach for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma.
