High levels of tumor necrosis factor receptor type II (TNFR2) are preferentially expressed by immunosuppressive CD4Foxp3 regulatory T cells (T), especially those present in the tumor microenvironment, as initially reported by us. There is compelling evidence that targeting TNFR2 markedly enhances antitumor immune responses. Furthermore, a broad spectrum of human cancers also expresses TNFR2, while its expression by normal tissue is very limited. We thus hypothesized that TNFR2 may be harnessed for tumor-targeted delivery of chemotherapeutic agents. In this study, we performed a proof-of-concept study by constructing a TNFR2-targeted PEGylated poly(dl-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA-PEG) nanodrug delivery system [designated as TNFR2-PLGA-ADR (Adriamycin)]. The results of in vitro study showed that this TNFR2-targeted delivery system had the properties in cellular binding and cytotoxicity toward mouse colon cancer cells. Further, upon intravenous injection, TNFR2-PLGA-ADR could efficiently accumulate in MC38 and CT26 mouse colon tumor tissues and preferentially bind with tumor-infiltrating T. Compared with ADR and ISO-PLGA-ADR, the in vivo antitumor effect of TNFR2-PLGA-ADR was markedly enhanced, which was associated with a decrease of TNFR2 T and an increase of IFNγCD8 cytotoxic T lymphocytes in the tumor tissue. Therefore, our results clearly show that targeting TNFR2 is a promising strategy for designing tumor-specific chemoimmunotherapeutic agent delivery system.
