%X Here,
a protein farnesyltransferase (PFTase)-driven plasma membrane
(PM)-targeted chimeric peptide, PpIX-C6-PEG8-KKKKKKSKTKC-OMe (PCPK), was designed for PM-targeted photodynamic
therapy (PM-PDT) and enhanced immunotherapy via tumor
cell PM damage and fast release of damage-associated molecular patterns
(DAMPs). The PM targeting ability of PCPK originates from the cellular
K-Ras signaling, which occurs exclusively to drive the corresponding
proteins to PM by PFTase. With the conjugation of the photosensitizer
protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), PCPK could generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen
species to deactivate membrane-associated proteins, initiate lipid
peroxidation, and destroy PM with an extremely low concentration (1
μM) under light irradiation. The specific PM damage further
induced the fast release of DAMPs (high-mobility group box 1 and ATP),
resulting in antitumor immune responses stronger than those of conventional
cytoplasm-localized PDT. This immune-stimulating PM-PDT strategy also
exhibited the inhibition effect for distant metastatic tumors when
combined with programmed cell death receptor 1 blockade therapy.
