This study demonstrate that the AuNP–HSA corona could penetrate cell membranes and companied by substantial membrane disruption. However, the ultrasmall AuNPs can be internalized by cells without the destruction of cell membranes.

Aim: To establish a light-independent functionality of gold nanorods (AuNRs) with a human serum (HS) protein corona loaded with photosensitizer Chlorin e6 (AuNR-HS-Ce6) in M1 polarization of macrophages. Methods: RT-qPCR and ELISA were used to determine gene and protein expression, respectively. Uptake of AuNR-HS-Ce6 was determined via flow cytometry, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and fluorescence microscopy. Cell viability was determined using PrestoBlue® cell viability assay. Results: An increase in M1 gene and protein expression was observed in AuNR-HS-Ce6-treated macrophages. Delivery of high Ce6 payload via AuNR-HS-Ce6 was the primary contributor toward M1 polarization. Finally, DLD-1 cells treated with conditioned media from AuNR-HS-Ce6-treated macrophages showed significantly reduced proliferation. Conclusion: Our study suggests an immunomodulatory potential of Ce6 in inducing light-independent M1 polarization outside of its role as a photosensitizer.
