This invention discloses a lipid nanoparticle co-delivery system based on phenolic hydroxyl lipids and a manganese adjuvant. Addressing the shortcomings of traditional HPV therapeutic peptide vaccines—weak immunogenicity, easy degradation and inactivation in vivo, low bioavailability of manganese ion adjuvants making spatiotemporal co-delivery with antigens, and poor encapsulation efficiency and insufficient biosafety of conventional lipid nanocarriers—this invention constructs an integrated nanovaccine delivery system by embedding phenolic hydroxyl functional lipids into a nanocarrier framework, synergistically loading HPV E6 / E7 specific antigen peptides and manganese ion immune adjuvants. This system achieves efficient delivery, immune activation, and anti-tumor efficacy, integrating the functions of efficient antigen delivery, potent immune activation, and precise anti-tumor action. The preparation process is simple and exhibits excellent stability, overcoming the limitations of traditional HPV peptide vaccines with poor efficacy when used alone. It has broad research value and clinical translation prospects in the field of precision immunotherapy for HPV-related cervical cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and other malignant tumors.
