AbstractThe malignancy of colorectal cancer (CRC) is connected with inflammation and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), but effective therapeutics for CRC are limited. To integrate therapeutic targeting with tumor microenvironment (TME) reprogramming, here we develop biocompatible, non-covalent channel-type nanoparticles (CNPs) that are fabricated through host-guest complexation and self-assemble of mannose-modified γ-cyclodextrin (M-γ-CD) with Regorafenib (RG), RG@M-γ-CD CNPs. In addition to its carrier role, M-γ-CD serves as a targeting device and participates in TME regulation. RG@M-γ-CD CNPs attenuate inflammation and inhibit TAM activation by targeting macrophages. They also improve RG’s anti-tumor effect by potentiating kinase suppression. In vivo application shows that the channel-type formulation optimizes the pharmacokinetics and bio-distribution of RG. In colitis-associated cancer and CT26 mouse models, RG@M-γ-CD is proven to be a targeted, safe and effective anti-tumor nanomedicine that suppresses tumor cell proliferation, lesions neovascularization, and remodels TME. These findings indicate RG@M-γ-CD CNPs as a potential strategy for CRC treatment.

Chemokines are a small family of cytokines that were first discovered as chemotactic factors in leukocytes during inflammation, and reports on the relationship between chemokines and cancer progression have recently been increasing. The CCL2-CCR2 axis is one of the major chemokine signaling pathways, and has various functions in tumor progression, such as increasing tumor cell proliferation and invasiveness, and creating a tumor microenvironment through increased angiogenesis and recruitment of immunosuppressive cells. This review discusses the roles of the CCL2-CCR2 axis and the tumor microenvironment in cancer progression and their future roles in cancer therapy.
