Abstract

This invention belongs to the fields of molecular biology and biomedicine, and discloses a class of siRNAs for silencing MMR genes and their combined applications. This invention provides a class of siRNA sequences capable of inhibiting the expression of key MMR genes MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6. Experimental results show that the siRNAs of this invention can effectively inhibit the expression of target genes. Furthermore, lipid nanocarriers adapted for in vivo delivery of siRNA (such as siMMR@LNPs) are developed based on siRNA. In an MSS CRC mouse model, siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin significantly inhibited in vivo tumor progression and liver metastasis, activated a strong immune response, and induced the production of tumor neoantigens, which can serve as a novel immunotherapy regimen for MSS CRC.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of molecular biology and biomedicine, specifically relating to a class of siRNAs that silence MMR genes and their combined applications. Background Technology

[0002] Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer incidence and the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Based on microsatellite instability, CRC can be classified into microsatellite unstable (MSI) and microsatellite stable (MSS) types. MSS CRC accounts for approximately 85% of all CRC cases. It responds poorly to immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as anti-PD-1 / PD-L1 antibodies, and is considered a "cold cancer" type, with clinical needs far from being met.

[0003] The mismatch repair (MMR) system is a key mechanism for maintaining genomic stability, primarily composed of proteins such as MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2. Loss of MMR function leads to altered microsatellite sequence lengths (MSI phenotype) and the generation of numerous frameshift mutations and neoantigens. In MSI CRC, this characteristic makes it sensitive to immunotherapy. However, in MSS CRC, MMR function is normal, the mutation burden is low, neoantigens are scarce, and the immune response is weak.

[0004] Oxaliplatin is a third-generation platinum-based anti-tumor drug that plays a central role in the adjuvant and metastatic treatment of colorectal cancer. Its combination with 5-fluorouracil / leucovorin (such as the FOLFOX regimen) has been approved as a standard treatment for colorectal cancer. Oxaliplatin induces tumor cell death by binding to tumor cell DNA to form Pt-DNA adducts, leading to alterations in DNA structure and impaired replication and transcription. Simultaneously, studies have shown that oxaliplatin can significantly increase the gene mutation burden. This property provides a theoretical basis for inducing a highly mutated state in tumors through oxaliplatin.

[0005] However, conventional systemic administration of oxaliplatin is highly toxic, and chemotherapy alone is insufficient to fully activate the anti-tumor immune response, failing to fully translate its mutation-inducing properties into synergistic effects of immunotherapy. Currently, there is still a lack of effective means in clinical practice to specifically regulate MMR function in MSS colorectal cancer, stabilize and induce the MSI phenotype, and then combine it with immunotherapy to improve efficacy. How to overcome the resistance of MSS colorectal cancer to immune checkpoint inhibitors is a key issue that urgently needs to be addressed in the current field of colorectal cancer diagnosis and treatment. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This invention aims to address at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. This invention proposes to inhibit the function of the MMR system by targeting the key MMR genes MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 with siRNA, and then combining this with oxaliplatin. This can further enhance genomic instability and increase the number of tumor neoantigens, potentially transforming immunologically "cold tumors" into "hot tumors," providing a new combined treatment strategy for improving the immunotherapy efficacy of microsatellite stable colorectal cancer.

[0105] The following will describe the concept and technical effects of the present invention clearly and completely with reference to embodiments, so as to fully understand the purpose, features and effects of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0106] Unless otherwise specified in the examples, the procedures should be performed under standard conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all commercially available products.

[0107] The features and performance of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments.

[0108] Example 1: Design and Screening of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNAs The full-length sequences of mouse MLH1 mRNA (NM_026810.2), MSH2 mRNA (NM_008628.3), MSH6 mRNA (NM_010830.2), human MLH1 mRNA (NM_000249.4), MSH2 mRNA (NM_000251.3), and MSH6 mRNA (NM_000179.3) were obtained from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database. Based on siRNA design principles, such as controlling GC content to 35%-55%, avoiding continuous single sequences that reduce the intrinsic stability of double strands, avoiding hairpin structures caused by inverted repeat sequences, and avoiding mRNA action sites with complex secondary structures, multiple pairs of siRNA sequences were designed using online siRNA design software, selecting different sites in the coding sequences (CDS) of the MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 genes. To further verify the efficacy of siRNAs in animal experiments, including mice, human-mouse homologous siRNAs were designed. Specifically, 10 siRNAs each target the human MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 genes; 10 siRNAs each target the mouse MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 genes; and 4 siRNAs targeting both MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 (specific sequences are shown in Tables 1-3). In addition, dTdT hanging ends were designed to increase the stability of the siRNAs, and a negative control NC siRNA was also designed. All designed siRNAs were synthesized by Guangzhou Ruibo Biotechnology Co., Ltd. HCT116 / CT26 cells were purchased from ATCC.

[0109] Table 1. Human MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNA sequences and silencing efficiencies

[0110] Table 2. Murine MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNA sequences and silencing efficiencies

[0111] Table 3. Human-mouse co-targeting MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNA sequences and silencing efficiencies

[0112] The silencing efficiency of each siRNA was further evaluated based on its species preference. Specifically, the silencing efficiency of human siRNA was evaluated in HCT116 cells, the silencing efficiency of mouse siRNA sequences was evaluated in CT26 cells, and the silencing efficiency of human-mouse co-targeting siRNAs was detected in HCT116 cells. The specific experimental steps are as follows: Step 1.1: HCT116 / CT26 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and placed in a cell culture incubator with 5% CO2, 37°C and saturated humidity. The cells were then passaged using 0.25% trypsin digestion.

[0113] Step 1.2: Take HCT116 / CT26 cells from passages 6-10, digest and count them, then divide them into groups of 1×10⁶ cells per well. 5 Cells were seeded at a density of 70%-80% in 12-well plates. After 24 hours, when the cell density reached 70%-80%, siRNA transfection was performed. A blank control group (Ctrl), a negative control group (NC), and each siRNA group were included.

[0114] Step 1.3: Perform transfection according to the Lipofectamine™ 3000 (Lipo3000) transfection reagent operation guide. The final concentration of NC and each siRNA for transfection is 50 nM.

[0115] Step 1.4: After 48 h of transfection incubation, total RNA was extracted from cells according to the instructions of the RNA extraction kit (ES Science, RN001). The obtained RNA was dissolved in 40 µL of RNase-free water, and the RNA content and purity of each group were determined by Nanod Drop. Using 1 µg of total RNA as a template, cDNA was synthesized according to the instructions of the iScript™ cDNA Synthesis Kit (Bio-Rad, 1708891), and quantitative qPCR detection of the target genes MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 mRNA was performed according to the instructions of the iQTM SYBR® Green Supermix (Vazyme, Q711).

[0116] The specific sequences of the siRNAs designed in this invention and their silencing efficiencies in corresponding cells are shown in Tables 1-3. Based on the silencing efficiencies of different siRNAs, h / mMLH1-1 (SEQ ID NO:123), h / mMSH2-1 (SEQ ID NO:127), and h / mMSH6-1 (SEQ ID NO:132) were finally selected for subsequent experiments.

[0117] Example 2: Dose-response relationship of human-mouse co-targeting MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNAs in CT26 cells This embodiment examines the dose-response relationship of the human-mouse co-targeting MLH1 (i.e., h / mMLH1-1 as shown in SEQ ID NO:123), MSH2 (i.e., h / mMSH2-1 as shown in SEQ ID NO:127), and MSH6 (i.e., h / mMSH6-1 as shown in SEQ ID NO:132) siRNA designed in Example 1 on CT26 cells. The specific experiments are as follows: Step 2.1: CT26 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and placed in a cell culture incubator with 5% CO2, 37°C and saturated humidity. The cells were then passaged using 0.25% trypsin.

[0118] Step 2.2: Take CT26 cells from passage 6-0, digest and count them, then fill each well with 2.5 × 10⁻⁶ cells. 5 Cells were seeded at a density of 100% in 6-well plates and transfected with siRNA when the cell density reached 70%-80% after 24 hours. A blank control group (Ctrl), a negative control group (NC), and groups with different siRNA concentrations were included.

[0119] Step 2.3: Perform transfection according to the Lipofectamine™ 3000 (Lipo3000) transfection reagent operation guide. The final concentration of si-NC for transfection is 50 nM, and the final concentrations of each siRNA are 0.2, 2, 20, and 200 nM, respectively.

[0120] Step 2.4: After transfection and incubation for 24 h, total cell protein was extracted and the protein concentration of each group was determined by BCA protein quantification kit (Beyotime, P0010). 20 μg of protein from each group was taken for Western blot analysis of the expression levels of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins.

[0121] Experimental results are as follows Figure 1 As shown. Figure 1 The dose-response relationship of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNAs in CT26 cells was investigated. The results showed that the interference of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNAs with target protein expression in CT26 cells was dose-dependent in the range of 0.2-200 nM.

[0122] In subsequent applications, MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNAs were simultaneously transfected into cells at a mass ratio of 1:1:1. Therefore, the 1:1:1 mixture of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNAs (i.e., a mixture of h / mMLH1-1, h / mMSH2-1, and h / mMSH6-1 in a 1:1:1 ratio) is uniformly referred to as siMMR.

[0123] Example 3: The interference effect of siMMR on the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins in CT26 cells. This embodiment investigates the interference effect of siMMR on the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins in CT26 cells. The specific experimental steps are as follows: Step 3.1: CT26 cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and placed in a cell culture incubator with 5% CO2, 37°C and saturated humidity. The cells were then passaged using 0.25% trypsin.

[0124] Step 3.2: Take CT26 cells from passages 8-10, digest and count them, and then divide them into groups of 2.5 × 10⁶ cells per well. 5 Cells were seeded at a density of 70%-80% in 6-well plates. After 24 hours, when the cell density reached 70%-80%, siRNA transfection was performed. Three groups were set up: a PBS group, an NC siRNA group, and a siMMR group. Each group had three parallel wells for biological replicates.

[0125] Step 3.3: Perform transfection according to the Lipofectamine™ 3000 (Lipo3000) transfection reagent operation guide. The transfection NC siRNA is 150 nM / well, and the final siMMR concentration is 50 nM / siRNA, i.e., 150 nM / well.

[0126] Step 3.4: After transfection and incubation for 24 h, total cell protein was extracted, and the protein concentration of each group was determined by BCA protein quantification kit. 20 μg of protein from each group was taken for Western blot analysis of the expression levels of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins.

[0127] Experimental results are as follows Figure 2 As shown. Figure 2 The effect of siMMR on the interference of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 protein expression in CT26 cells was investigated. The results showed that siMMR effectively interfered with the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins in CT26 cells, with silencing efficiencies of 43%, 60%, and 75%, respectively.

[0128] Example 4: The interference effect of siMMR on the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 mRNA in HCT116 cells. This embodiment investigates the interference effect of siMMR on the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 mRNA in HCT116 cells.

[0140] Example 6 Preparation of siMMR@LNPs Based on the experimental results of Examples 2-5, the human-mouse co-targeting MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNAs designed in this invention can effectively silence the expression of target genes in mouse and human CRC cells. Therefore, this example further utilizes a lipid nanoparticle nucleic acid delivery vector to achieve in vivo delivery of siRNA, verifying the in vivo silencing efficiency and anti-MSS CRC efficacy of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 siRNAs. The prepared LNPs were named NC siRNA@LNP and siMMR@LNPs.

[0141] The preparation method of NC siRNA@LNP and siMMR@LNPs specifically includes the following steps: Step 6.1: Dilute the siRNA to 130 ng / μL with a 0.05 M sodium acetate solution at pH 5.0, which is called the aqueous phase; disodium 4-2-OH, DSPC (distearylphosphatidylcholine), cholesterol, and DMG-PEG 2000 (dimyristicoglycerol-polyethylene glycol 2000) are dissolved in anhydrous ethanol and mixed in a molar ratio of 48.5:10:40:1.5, which is called the alcohol phase, with a total concentration of 10 mg / mL.

[0142] The synthesis of the cationic lipid C8-4-2-OH was based on Chinese invention patent CN202510341167.2. The general synthesis process is as follows: 2-(tert-butyldimethoxy)ethylamine (1 eq.) was dissolved in anhydrous acetonitrile, and N-(4-bromohexyl)phthalimide (2.2 eq.) and anhydrous potassium carbonate (3 eq.) were added. The mixture was refluxed overnight. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, and the insoluble matter was filtered off. Water and dichloromethane were added to separate the layers. The organic layer was separated, washed with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The drying agent was filtered off, the mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure, and dissolved in anhydrous ethanol. Hydrazine hydrate (10 eq.) was added, and the mixture was refluxed for 5 h. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature and diluted with methyl tert-butyl ether. The insoluble matter was filtered off, the mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure, and then 80% saturated sodium sulfate aqueous solution and dichloromethane were added to separate the layers. The organic layer was separated, evaporated under reduced pressure, and dissolved in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran. Octyl acrylate (6 eq.) and DBU (1 eq.) were added, and the reaction was carried out at 50 °C for 4 days. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, and water and ethyl acetate were added to separate the layers. The organic layer was separated, washed with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The desiccant was filtered off, the solution was evaporated under reduced pressure, and purified by silica gel column chromatography to give a pale yellow oily substance C8-4-2-OH.

[0143] The characterization data of the above cationic lipid C8-4-2-OH are as follows: 1H NMR (500 MHz, Chloroform-d) δ4.04 (t, J = 6.8 Hz, 8H), 3.55 (t, J = 5.3 Hz, 2H), 2.76 (t, J = 7.3 Hz, 8H), 2.60 (t, J = 5.3 Hz, 2H), 2.48 (t, J = 6.8 Hz, 4H), 2.45 - 2.39 (m, 12H),1.61 (quintet, J = 6.8 Hz, 8H), 1.45 - 1.38 (m, 8H), 1.37 - 1.25 (m, 40H),0.88 (t, J = 6.8 Hz, 12H).

[0144] Step 6.2: Mix the alcohol phase and the aqueous phase at a volume ratio of 1:3 using a microfluidic instrument, collect the mixture, add 10 times the volume of PBS buffer, and centrifuge and ultrafilter using a 10kDa ultrafiltration tube at 4°C. The resulting product is LNP (i.e., NCsiRNA@LNP or siMMR@LNPs).

[0145] Example 7: Efficacy of siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin in vivo for anti-MSS CRC This example was used to investigate the efficacy of siMMR@LNPs prepared in Example 6 combined with oxaliplatin in vivo against MSS CRC. The specific experimental steps are as follows: A subcutaneous MSS CRC model was constructed using CT26 cells. The specific construction protocol is as follows: CT26 cells of passage 10 or less were digested and then... 5 BALB / c mice were inoculated with cells at a density of 100 cells / mouse on the right back. The tumor was treated when it grew to 100 cm. 3 Mice were randomly divided into three groups: a placebo PBS group, a negative control NC siRNA@LNP+oxaliplatin group, and a siMMR@LNPs+oxaliplatin group, with five mice in each group. Mice were injected subcutaneously with PBS / NC siRNA@LNP / siMMR@LNPs, 60 μg / mouse, every two days. Mice in the NC siRNA@LNP group and the siMMR@LNPs group were injected intraperitoneally with oxaliplatin, 2 mg / kg, for a total of four injections.

[0146] When the tumor volume reaches 1500 cm³ 3 All mice were euthanized, tumors were removed and weighed, and half of the tumors were then subjected to whole-exome sequencing analysis. The remaining tumors were fixed with paraformaldehyde, routinely embedded in paraffin, and stained with IHC to assess the expression levels of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins and the level of immune infiltration in the tumors.

[0147] Results in mice Figures 5-9 As shown.

[0148] Figure 5 This represents the weight of a mouse tumor extracted from an in vitro specimen. Figure 5 As shown, the siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin group had a 30% reduction in ex vivo tumor weight compared to the control group.

[0149] Figure 6 To analyze the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins in tumors using immunohistochemistry, compared with the control group, siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin reduced the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins in the tumor microenvironment, with expression rates of 28%, 27%, and 20%, respectively.

[0150] Figure 7 The results showed that after treatment with siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin, the number of neoantigens with high affinity for MHC I was 1.5 times that of the control group and 1.4 times that of MHC II.

[0151] Figure 8 To assess the immunogenicity of neoantigens with high affinity for MHC I and MHC II, the results showed that 4 of the neoantigens with high affinity for MHC I (4 / 64) could induce IFNγ secretion, and 3 of the neoantigens with high affinity for MHC II (3 / 56) induced strong IFNγ secretion.

[0152] Figure 9 For immunohistochemical analysis of CD8 in the tumor microenvironment + The results showed that siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin treatment promoted the T-cell immune response in MSS CRC tumors and the level of GZMB secretion.

[0153] Example 8: Efficacy of siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin in treating MSS CRC liver metastases This example was used to investigate the efficacy of siMMR@LNPs prepared in Example 6 combined with oxaliplatin in treating MSS CRC liver metastases. The specific experimental steps are as follows: A mouse model of MSS CRC liver metastasis was constructed using CT26-Luc cells. The specific construction protocol is as follows: CT26-Luc cells within the 10th passage were collected, and the cell density was adjusted to 2×10⁻⁶ cells by resuspending them in PBS. 6 Cells / mL. BALB / c mice were anesthetized with isoflurane inhalation, and a small incision was made in the left abdomen to expose the spleen. 100 μL of cell suspension (containing 2 × 10⁶ cells / mL) was slowly injected subcapsularly into the spleen using an insulin injector. 5(1 CT26-Luc cells), after injection, apply pressure to stop bleeding for 1 minute, reposition the spleen, and suture the abdominal wall and skin. After injection, the splenic venous blood flow directly flows into the portal vein and perfuses the liver unidirectionally. In addition, the hepatic sinusoidal microvessels physically trap tumor cells, so the tumor cells mainly colonize the liver, forming liver metastases.

[0154] On day 7 after mouse model establishment, the luminescence intensity of mouse livers was detected using a small animal in vivo imaging system. Mice with stable liver luminescence intensity (i.e., successful modeling) were randomly divided into three groups of four mice each: PBS control group: PBS was injected via the tail vein every 3 days; simultaneously, PBS was injected intraperitoneally every 2 days. NC siRNA@LNP+oxaliplatin group: NC siRNA@LNP (prepared in Example 6) was injected via the tail vein at 60 μg / mouse every 3 days; simultaneously, oxaliplatin was injected intraperitoneally at 2 mg / kg every 2 days. siMMR@LNPs+oxaliplatin group: siMMR@LNPs (a mixture targeting MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6, 20 μg each, totaling 60 μg / mouse) was injected via the tail vein every 3 days; simultaneously, oxaliplatin was injected intraperitoneally at 2 mg / kg every 2 days. All administration volumes were 100 μL, administered three times. Small animal in vivo imaging was performed every 3 days after administration. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with luciferase substrate (150 mg / kg), anesthetized with isoflurane 10 minutes later, and placed in a small animal in vivo imaging chamber to collect bioluminescent signals. The luminescence intensity of the liver region was quantitatively analyzed using Living Image software.

[0155] At the experimental endpoint, mouse hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, and kidneys were collected. The weight of the mouse livers was measured, and blood was collected. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were measured using a Mindray BS-240 fully automated biochemical analyzer (Shenzhen Mindray). Liver tissue was fixed in paraformaldehyde and then embedded in paraffin. Routine paraffin-embedded sections were sectioned and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) to assess the degree of MSSCRC liver metastasis. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed on the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins and CD8 in liver tumor metastases. + T cell infiltration level.

[0156] Mouse experiment results as follows Figures 10-15 As shown.

[0157] Figure 10 The results showed that the luminescence intensity of mouse liver in the siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin group was significantly lower than that in the NC siRNA@LNP + oxaliplatin group, by approximately 50%. This indicates that MMR siRNA combined with oxaliplatin can effectively inhibit the growth of MSS CRC liver metastases.

[0158] Figure 11Gross images and weights of mouse livers were shown. Results indicated that multiple white metastatic nodules were visible on the liver surface in the PBS control group and the NC siRNA@LNP + oxaliplatin group, with increased liver volume and hardened texture. In contrast, the livers in the siMMR@LNPs + oxaliplatin group resembled normal livers in appearance, with very few metastatic lesions. Liver weight analysis showed that the liver weight in the siMMR@LNPs + oxaliplatin group was comparable to that in the non-model group, approximately 75% of that in the NC siRNA@LNP + oxaliplatin group.

[0159] Figure 12 The results of HE staining of mouse livers showed that large metastatic foci were visible in liver sections of the PBS control group and the NC siRNA@LNP + oxaliplatin group, with large and deeply stained tumor cell nuclei and destruction of normal liver tissue structure; while only small focal metastases were seen in liver sections of the siMMR@LNPs + oxaliplatin group, and the liver lobule structure was basically intact.

[0160] Figure 13 In mice, serum ALT and AST levels were significantly elevated in the PBS group and the NC siRNA@LNP + oxaliplatin group, indicating liver damage caused by liver metastasis. In contrast, ALT and AST levels in the siMMR@LNPs + oxaliplatin group were within the normal range, showing no significant difference compared to the untreated group. This indicates that siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin can effectively reverse liver damage caused by tumor liver metastasis.

[0161] Figure 14 To analyze the expression levels of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins in liver metastases of MSS CRC using immunohistochemistry, the results showed that the protein expression levels of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 in the liver metastases of mice in the siMMR@LNPs+oxaliplatin group were significantly reduced, with expression levels of 40%, 25%, and 37% of those in the control group, respectively, demonstrating that the designed siRNA effectively silenced the target genes.

[0162] Figure 15 For immunohistochemical analysis of CD8+ in mouse MSS CRC liver metastases + T cell infiltration levels showed that CD8+ in liver metastases of mice in the siMMR@LNPs+oxaliplatin group was significantly higher than that in other groups. + The level of T cell infiltration was the highest, approximately three times that of the PBS control group, indicating that MMR silencing successfully recruited CD8+ cells. + Cytotoxic T cells enhanced the local anti-tumor immune response.

[0163] The combined experimental results of Examples 7 and 8 demonstrate that siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin significantly inhibited the in vivo growth rate of MSS CRC, suppressed the expression of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins, induced neoantigen production, and enhanced the tumor immune response. In the MSS CRC liver metastasis model, siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin significantly inhibited the growth of tumor liver metastases and reversed tumor-induced liver damage. This suggests that the siMMR@LNPs combined with oxaliplatin combination drug provided by this invention offers a novel strategy for the treatment of both primary and metastatic lesions of MSS CRC.
