摘要：

Autologous cancer vaccines constructed by nonproliferative whole tumor cells or tumor lysates together with appropriate adjuvants represent a promising strategy to suppress postsurgical tumor recurrence. Inspired by the potency of cytosolic double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) in initiating anticancer immunity by activating the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING) pathway, we herein report the concise synthesis of a cGAS-STING agonist through dsDNA-templated biomineralization growth of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) microparticles. The yielded DNA@CaCO3 can activate the intracellular cGAS-STING pathway of dendritic cells (DCs) by promoting endosomal escape of dsDNA, triggering their maturation and activation as a potent immune stimulator. Upon intratumoral injection, DNA@CaCO3 can reverse the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by simultaneously provoking innate and adaptive antitumor immunity, thereby effectively suppressing the growth of murine CT26 and B16–F10 tumors in mice. Furthermore, via CaCO3-based biomineralization of complete tumor lysates, we constructed a personalized autologous cancer vaccine with intrinsic cGAS-STING activation capacity that could provoke tumor-specific immune responses to not only delay the growth of challenged tumors but also synergize with anti-PD-1 immunotherapy to suppress postsurgical tumor recurrence. This study highlights a CaCO3-based biomineralization method to prepare autologous cancer vaccines in a concise manner, which is promising for personalized immunotherapy and clinical translation.
