AbstractIn spite of the tumor microenvironments responsive cancer therapy based on Fenton reaction (i.e., chemodynamic therapy, CDT) has been attracted more attentions in recent years, the limited Fenton reaction efficiency is the important obstacle to further application in clinic. Herein, we synthesized novel FeO/MoS2 nanocomposites modified by bovine serum albumin (FeO/MoS2-BSA) with boosted Fenton reaction efficiency by the synergistic effect of co-catalyze and photothermal effect of MoS2 nanosheets triggered by the second near-infrared (NIR II) light. In the tumor microenvironments, the MoS2 nanosheets not only can accelerate the conversion of Fe3+ ions to Fe2+ ions by Mo4+ ions on their surface to improve Fenton reaction efficiency, but also endow FeO/MoS2-BSA with good photothermal performances for photothermal-enhanced CDT and photothermal therapy (PTT). Consequently, benefiting from the synergetic-enhanced CDT/PTT, the tumors are eradicated completely in vivo. This work provides innovative synergistic strategy for constructing nanocomposites for highly efficient CDT.

The mastery of active tumor targeting is a great challenge in near infrared photothermal therapy (NIRPTT). To improve efficiency for targeted treatment of malignant tumors, we modify the technique of conjugating gold nanoparticles to tumor-specific antibodies. Polyethylene glycol-coated (PEGylated) gold nanorods (GNRs) were fabricated and conjugated to an anti-EGFR antibody. We characterized the conjugation efficiency of the GNRs by comparing the efficiency of antibody binding and the photothermal effect of the GNRs before and after conjugation. We demonstrate that the binding efficiency of the antibodies conjugated to the PEGylated GNRs is comparable to the binding efficiency of the unmodified antibodies and 33.9% greater than PEGylated antibody-GNR conjugates as reported by Liao and Hafner (2005). In addition, cell death by NIRPTT was sufficient to kill nearly 90% of tumor cells, which is comparable to NIRPTT with GNRs alone confirming that NIRPTT using GNRs is not compromised by conjugation of GNRs to antibodies.

Photothermal therapy (PTT) that utilizes hyperthermia to ablate cancer cells is a promising approach for cancer therapy, while the generated high temperature may lead to damage of surrounding normal tissues and inflammation. We herein report the construction of glucose oxidase (GOx)-loaded hydrogels with a pH-sensitive photothermal conversion property for combinational cancer therapy at mild-temperature. The hydrogels (defined as CAG) were formed via coordination of alginate solution containing pH-sensitive charge-transfer nanoparticles (CTNs) as the second near-infrared (NIR-II) photothermal agents and GOx. In the tumor sites, GOx was gradually released from CAG to consume glucose for tumor starvation and aggravate acidity in tumor microenvironment that could turn on the NIR-II photothermal conversion property of CTNs. Meanwhile, the released GOx could suppress the expression of heat shock proteins to enable mild NIR-II PTT under 1,064 nm laser irradiation. As such, CAG mediated a combinational action of mild NIR-II PTT and starvation therapy, not only greatly inhibiting the growth of subcutaneously implanted tumors in a breast cancer murine model, but also completely preventing lung metastasis. This study thus provides an enzyme loaded hydrogel platform with a pH-sensitive photothermal effect for mild-temperature-mediated combinational cancer therapy.

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.
