AbstractPhotothermal therapy (PTT) has attracted great interest in cancer treatment, and the quest for potential organic photothermal agents is underway owing to the nonbiodegradable nature and chronic toxicity of existing inorganic nanomaterials. Organic material-based nanoformulations with good photothermal and fluorescence properties in the near-infrared (NIR-I) window are scarce. However, porphyrins are one category of biocompatible systems that are advantageous for photothermal therapy but are currently based in the visible region, causing limited depth of tissue penetration and leading to compromised photothermal and near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging applications. To overcome these limitations, we report the synthesis of L,L-diphenylalanine conjugated BF2-oxasmaragdyrin (FF-BSC) and the fabrication of monodispersed spherical self-assemblies (FF-BSC NPs) using a USP class 3 solvent-water mixture. The resulting product exhibited excellent photostability (NIR exposure), multicycle photothermal efficacy, and NIR fluorescence. In vitro studies revealed good biocompatibility, efficient cellular internalization, and photothermal efficacy. Preclinical studies of these nano-self-assemblies demonstrated nontoxicity, efficient whole-body NIRF imaging, fractional passive tumor homing, and excellent photothermal tumor ablation potential. The absorbance and fluorescence of FF-BSC NPs in NIR-I make them suitable for theragnostic applications over existing porphyrins/inorganic nanomaterials for future clinical applications.

In this paper, the surface of molybdenum disulfide nanosheets synthesized by hydrothermal method was modified with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and nucleic acid aptamers in order to construct a photothermal system with high target recognition, stable size, good biocompatibility and low toxicity Nano material molybdenum disulfide; Under 808 nm laser irradiation, suitable functionalized molybdenum disulfide nanosheets can produce singlet oxygen at an effective concentration for photodynamic therapy, and at the same time, photothermal therapy can also be used to achieve synergistic therapy and the therapeutic effect is more excellent. This shows that such functionalized molybdenum disulfide nanosheets have excellent therapeutic effect and great potential in tumor treatment.

Targeted FA–CuS NPs can significantly improve the tumor uptake; the integration of 64Cu into NPs with strong near-infrared absorption makes them suitable for PET imaging, and image-guided photothermal therapy; targeted FA–CuS NPs mediate a substantially greater therapeutic effect compared with photothermal therapy with non-targeted CuS NPs.
