Due to the unique properties of lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNP) under near-infrared (NIR) light, the last decade has shown a sharp progress in their biomedicine applications. Advances in the techniques for polymer, dye, and bio-molecule conjugation on the surface of the nanoparticles has further expanded their dynamic opportunities for optogenetics, oncotherapy and bioimaging. In this account, considering the primary benefits such as the absence of photobleaching, photoblinking, and autofluorescence of UCNPs not only facilitate the construction of accurate, sensitive and multifunctional nanoprobes, but also improve therapeutic and diagnostic results. We introduce, with the basic knowledge of upconversion, unique properties of UCNPs and the mechanisms involved in photon upconversion and discuss how UCNPs can be implemented in biological practices. In this focused review, we categorize the applications of UCNP-based various strategies into the following domains: neuromodulation, immunotherapy, drug delivery, photodynamic and photothermal therapy, bioimaging and biosensing. Herein, we also discuss the current emerging bioapplications with cutting edge nano-/biointerfacing of UCNPs. Finally, this review provides concluding remarks on future opportunities and challenges on clinical translation of UCNPs-based nanotechnology research.

AbstractMagnetic micro/nanorobots attracted much attention in biomedical fields because of their precise movement, manipulation, and targeting abilities. However, there is a lack of research on intelligent micro/nanorobots with stimuli-responsive drug delivery mechanisms for cancer therapy. To address this issue, we developed a type of strong covalently bound tri-bead drug delivery microrobots with NIR photothermal response azobenzene molecules attached to their carboxylic surface groups. The tri-bead microrobots are magnetic and showed good cytocompatibility even when their concentration is up to 200 µg/mL. In vitro photothermal experiments demonstrated fast NIR-responsive photothermal property; the microrobots were heated to 50 °C in 4 min, which triggered a significant increase in drug release. Motion control of the microrobots inside a microchannel demonstrated the feasibility of targeted therapy on tumor cells. Finally, experiments with lung cancer cells demonstrated the effectiveness of targeted chemo-photothermal therapy and were validated by cell viability assays. These results indicated that tri-bead microrobots have excellent potential for targeted chemo-photothermal therapy for lung cancer cell treatment.

In recent times, organelle-targeted drug delivery systems gained tremendous attention due to the site specific delivery of active drug molecules resulting in enhanced bioefficacy. In this context, the phototriggered drug delivery system (DDS) for releasing an active molecule is superior as it provides spatial and temporal control over the release. So far, near infrared (NIR) light responsive organelle targeted DDS has not yet been developed. Hence, we introduced a two-photon NIR-light responsive lysosome targeted ʽAIE + ESIPTʼ active single component DDS based on naphthalene chromophore. The Two-photon absorption cross-section of our DDS is 142 GM at 850 nm. The DDS was converted into pure organic nanoparticles for biological applications. Our nano-DDS is capable of selective targeting, AIE-luminogenic imaging, and drug release within the lysosome. In vitro studies using cancerous cell lines showed that our single component photoresponsive nanocarrier exhibited enhanced cytotoxicity and real-time monitoring ability of the drug release.

A key challenge for nanoparticles-based drug delivery system is to achieve manageable drug release in tumour cell. In this study, a versatile system combining photothermal therapy and controllable drug release for tumour cells using temperature-sensitive block copolymer coupled Au NRs@SiO2 is reported. While the Au NRs serve as hyperthermal agent and the mesoporous silica was used to improve the drug loading and decrease biotoxicity. The block copolymer acted as “gatekeeper” to regulate the release of model drug (Doxorubicin hydrochloride, DOX). Through in vivo and in vitro experiments, we achieved the truly controllable drug release and photothermal therapy with the collaborative effect of the three constituents of the nanocomposites. The reported nanocomposites pave the way to high-performance controllable drug release and photothermal therapy system.

Abstract Photothermal therapy (PTT) using near-infrared (NIR) light for tumor treatment has triggered extensive attentions because of its advantages of noninvasion and convenience. The current research on PTT usually uses lasers in the first NIR window (NIR-I; 700–900 nm) as irradiation source. However, the second NIR window (NIR-II; 1000–1700 nm) especially NIR-IIa window (1300–1400 nm) is considered much more promising in diagnosis and treatment as its superiority in penetration depth and maximum permissible exposure over NIR-I window. Hereby, we propose the use of laser excitation at 1275 nm, which is approved by Food and Drug Administration for physical therapy, as an attractive technique for PTT to balance of tissue absorption and scattering with water absorption. Specifically, CuS-PEG nanoparticles with similar absorption values at 1275 and 808 nm, a conventional NIR-I window for PTT, were synthesized as PTT agents and a comparison platform, to explore the potential of 1275 and 808 nm lasers for PTT, especially in deep-tissue settings. The results showed that 1275 nm laser was practicable in PTT. It exhibited much more desirable outcomes in cell ablation in vitro and deep-tissue antitumor capabilities in vivo compared to that of 808 nm laser. NIR-IIa laser illumination is superior to NIR-I laser for deep-tissue PTT, and shows high potential to improve the PTT outcome.

Abstract Background: Owing to the tunability of longitudinal surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), ease of synthesizing small size and excellent stability, AuNRs have been developed as photothermal agents for cancer therapy. However, PTT alone could not kill cancer cells completely due to the local heterogeneous distribution of heat in tumors, penetration depth of light, light scattering and absorption. In addition, the treatment systems based on AuNRs hold disadvantages of loading one antitumor drug or a low therapeutic efficiency. Therefore, the construction of the AuNRs theranostic system to achieve imaging-guided dual drug delivery and enhanced photothermal therapy for tumor still remains a great challenge.Methods: The AuNRs were prepared using a seedless method. A mesoporous silica shell layer was coated on the surface of the AuNRs by sol-gel method. Double anticancer drugs, DOX and Btz, were loaded into the AuNRs@MSN nanoparticles through physical absorption and covalent conjugation, respectively.Results: The release of DOX and Btz is found pH/thermal dual responsive in vitro. Compared with AuNRs@MSN, PDA-AuNRs@MSN exhibits an increased near-infrared (NIR) absorption at 808 nm and an enhanced photothermal effect. In contrast to chemotherapy or photothermal therapy alone, the integrated D/B-PDA-AuNRs@MSN nanoparticles show higher cell apoptosis and enhanced tumor treatment efficacy in vitro and in vivo.Conclusions: In this study, we designed a double-drug loading, enhanced chemo/photothermal therapy and pH/thermal responsive drug delivery system for photoacoustic (PA) imaging-guided tumor therapy. We believe that the multifunctional D/B-PDA-AuNRs@MSN theranostic probe could serve as an effective probe for the treatment of cancers.
