The synergistic approach of combining photodynamic immunotherapy with endogenous clearance of PD-L1 immune checkpoint blockade therapy holds promise for enhancing survival outcomes in glioblastoma (GBM) patients. The observed upregulation of O-GlcNAc glycolysis in tumors may contribute to the stabilization of endogenous PD-L1 protein, facilitating tumor immune evasion. This study presents a pH-adapted excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT)-isomerized β-ketoamide-based covalent organic framework (COF) nanoplatform (denoted as OT@COF-RVG). Temozolomide (TMZ) and OSMI-4 (O-GlcNAc transferase inhibitor) were integrated into COF cavities, then modified on the surface with polyethylene glycol and the rabies virus peptide RVG-29, showing potential for sensitizing TMZ chemotherapy and initiating photodynamic therapy (PDT). By inhibiting O-GlcNAc and promoting lysosomal degradation of PD-L1, OT@COF-RVG enhanced the effectiveness of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Additionally, treatment with OT@COF-RVG led to a notable elevation in reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, thereby re-establishing an immunostimulatory state, inducing immunogenic cell death (ICD). In summary, our research unveiled a correlation between O-GlcNAc in GBM and the evasion of immune responses by tumors, while showcasing the potential of OT@COF-RVG in reshaping the immunosuppressive microenvironment of GBM and offering a more effective approach to immunotherapy in clinical settings.
