The treatment of malignant bone tumors (including primary bone tumors and metastatic bone tumors) has always been a clinical challenge. The purpose of this study is to design a bone-targeted nano-carrier with photothermal effect to achieve chemo-photothermal therapy (CPT), which allows the minimal use of photothermal agents and chemical drugs to target bone tumors. Alendronate modified hollow gold nanoparticles (HGNPs- ALN) were synthesized using mercapto polyethylene glycol carboxyl (SH-PEG2000-COOH) as the connecting arm, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) data show that HGNPs-ALN with a particle size of about 80 nm has been successfully synthesized. The hydroxyapatite affinity experiment in vitro indicated that HGNPs-ALN exhibited a high affinity to bone. In addition, the temperature of HGNPs-ALN under near-infrared laser irradiation can rise to 53 °C, which can achieve effective photothermal therapy for bone tumors. Bone-targeted hollow gold nanoparticles (DOX@HGNPs-ALN) loaded with doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) were synthesized by one-pot method. By comparing the stability and drug loading of HGNPs-ALN, it was concluded that the optimal mass ratio of HGNPs-ALN (calculated by the amount of gold) to DOX was about 1:2. HGNPs-ALN and DOX@HGNPs-ALN both have good photothermal stability and photothermal transformation properties, and confirmed the safety of HGNPs on human osteosarcoma cells. MTT experiments showed that DOX@HGNPs-ALN had the strongest killing effect on MG-63 osteosarcoma cells under laser irradiation (the killing rate is about 65%). According to these results, it can be considered that DOX@HGNPs-ALN has the potential of CPT synergistic targeting therapy for bone tumors.

BackgroundAdvanced cancer therapy is targeted at primary tumors and also recurrent or metastatic cancers. Combinational cancer treatment has recently shown high efficiency against recurrent and metastatic cancers. In this study, we synthesized a thermal responsive hybrid nanoparticle (TRH) containing FimH, an immune stimulatory recombinant protein, for the induction of a combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and immunotherapy against cancer and its metastasis.MethodsThe hybrid nanoparticle was incorporated with a near-infrared (NIR) absorbent, indocyanine green, and decorated with FimH on its surface to form F-TRH. F-TRH was evaluated for its anticancer and antimetastatic effects against CT-26 carcinoma in mice by combining PTT and immunotherapy.ResultsNIR laser irradiation elicited an elevation of temperature in F-TRH, which induced apoptosis in CT-26 carcinoma cells in vitro. In addition, F-TRH and NIR laser irradiation promoted photothermal-mediated therapeutic effects against CT-26 and 4T1 tumors in mice. The release of FimH from F-TRH in response to elevated temperature and apoptotic bodies of cancer cells via PTT elicited dendritic cell-mediated cancer antigen-specific T-cell responses, which subsequently inhibited the second challenge of CT-26 and 4T1 cell growth in the lung.ConclusionsThese data demonstrate the potential use of F-TRH for immuno-photothermal therapy against cancer and its recurrence and metastasis.
