Rg3-PNPs@PPP and DOX combination promoted ICD effect and DC maturation in mice bearing 4T1 tumor. (A) Schedules for the indicated treatment. p.t. means peritumoral. (B) Immunohistochemistry of CRT and HMGB1 expression in tumors. (C) Immunofluorescence dual-staining of CD11 (red) and CD86 (green) in tumors sections. (D) Populations of CD80+, CD86+ and MHCII+ cells (matured dendritic cells markers), gated on CD11c+ DC cells in tumor-draining lymph nodes by flow cytometry. Data are presented as the mean ± SD (n = 3). 1. PBS; 2. Rg3@PPP; 3. DOX@PPP; 4. Rg3+DOX@PPP; 5. Rg3-NPs+DOX@PPP; 6. Rg3-PNPs+DOX@PPP. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs the PBS group
