Breast cancer has emerged as a leading cause of mortality among women. Photothermal therapy represents a recent therapeutic modality for eradicating localized tumors, albeit hindered by its limited penetration into tumor tissues. Recognizing the potential of photothermal therapy to induce immunogenic cell death in tumor cells, we explored a gene delivery approach utilizing small interfering RNA targeting programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1), abbreviated as siPD-L1, to bolster the anti-tumor immune response elicited by this therapy. Nonetheless, the suboptimal release efficiency and inherent instability of RNA molecules have posed challenges to their therapeutic efficacy. In this study, we designed a glutathione (GSH)/pH-responsive micelle system, employing biocompatible and low-toxicity polyethyleneimine in conjunction with structurally robust pluronic P123, to encapsulate both indocyanine green (ICG) and siPD-L1 for precise targeting in breast cancer treatment. The resulting PSP/ICG/siPD-L1 nanocarrier demonstrated admirable biocompatibility and stability. Upon internalization into tumor cells, this nanocarrier exhibited rapid release of both ICG and siPD-L1, responding to the acidic tumor microenvironment and GSH conditions. The inclusion of siPD-L1 effectively downregulated the expression of PD-L1 on the tumor cell surface, thereby impeding tumor growth. Additionally, ICG demonstrated a photothermal effect when exposed to near-infrared light. Both in vitro and in vivo investigations substantiated the nanocarrier's efficacy against tumor cells, culminating in the complete ablation of 4T1 tumors in situ. Consequently, PSP/ICG/siPD-L1 emerges as a promising nanocarrier candidate for augmenting anti-tumor immunity through the synergistic combination of photothermal therapy and gene-based intervention.
