Utilization of the intestinal lymphatic pathway will allow extraordinary gains in lymph and tumors cascade-targeted delivery of oral drugs and awakening the innate/adaptive immunity of the body and the lesion microenvironment, in addition to improving oral bioavailability relative to other means of delivery of oral drugs. Here, inspired by the specific invasion route of intestinal microorganisms, we pioneered an immune-awakening -inspired mesoporous silicon nanoparticle (yMSN) for the ingenious cascade-targeted delivery of therapeutic cancer vaccines and antitumor drugs to lymph and tumors the intestinal lymphatic pathway. Encouragingly, yMSN high-loaded tumor-specific antigens (OVA, 11.

We herein exploit the tropism of macrophages to improve the accumulation and retention time of nanomedicine at tumors. Interestingly, macrophages are not merely as transporters, but killers activated by nanomedicine.

Colon-targeted delivery of anti-TNF-α antibodies through the oral route is of great importance but remains a formidable challenge. Here, we reported a biomimetic nanocomposite made of a ginger-derived exosome and an inorganic framework for this purpose.

In this work, a traceable dual-porous mesoporous silica-coated mesoporous carbon nanocomposite (MCN@Si) with high drug loading capacity and high photothermal conversion efficiency (30.5 %) was successfully prepared. Based on the nanocomposite, a pH/redox/near infrared (NIR) multi-stimuli responsive drug delivery system was constructed to realize the accurate drug delivery, drug controlled release and chemo-photothermal synergistic antitumor therapy.
