Multi-Enzyme Nanoparticles as Efficient Pyroptosis and Immunogenic Cell Death Inducers for Cancer Immunotherapy.

Immunotherapy represents a widely employed modality in clinical oncology, leveraging the activation of the human immune system to target and eradicate cancer cells and tumor tissues via endogenous immune mechanisms. However, its efficacy remains constrained by inadequate immune responses within "cold" tumor microenvironment (TME). In this study, a multifunctional nanoscale pyroptosis inducer with cascade enzymatic activity (IMZF), comprising superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and glutathione oxidase (GSHOx), is dissociated within the acidic and glutathione-rich TME.
