Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an excellent solvent for various types of anticancer drugs. Here, beyond that, it can participate in a disulfide bond crosslink between sulfhydryl (-SH) modified hyaluronic acid (HA-SH) molecules to form the hydrogel. Thus, during the above crosslink process, the dissolved drug in DMSO could be effectively loaded inside the hydrogels' porous structures as an injectable peritumoral implant. The loaded drugs can be sustained released through hydrogel swelling and degradation around the tumor tissue to suppress tumor growth. In this paper, the above hydrogel was used as a peritumoral drug-loaded implant for chemotherapeutics, photosensitizer, and photothermal reagent, respectively, for chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and photothermal therapy in cancer treatment. Therefore, this DMSO involved HA-SS-HA (HA, hyaluronic acid; -SS-, disulfide bond) hydrogel fabrication method is simple and widely applicable for drug-loaded peritumoral implant preparation.

Recently, bioinspired material such as nanoparticle has been successfully applied in the cancer therapy. However, how to precisely control the drug release from nanomedicine in tumor tissue and overcome the hypoxic microenvironment of tumor tissue is still an important challenge in the development of nanomedicine. In this work, a new type of drug-loaded nanoparticles P(AAm-co-AN)-AuNRs@CeO 2 -DOX (PA-DOX) was prepared by combining high-efficiency photothermal reagents, critical up-conversion temperature polymer layer and anti-cancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this system, CeO 2 can decompose hydrogen peroxide to H 2 O and O 2 alleviate the anaerobic microenvironment of liver cancer cells. As a photothermal reagent, AuNRs@CeO 2 can convert near-infrared light into heat energy to achieve local heat to kill cancer cells and ablate solid tumors. In addition, the elevated temperature would enable the polymer layer to undergo a phase transition to release more DOX to achieve a controlled release mechanism, which will open up a new horizon for clinical cancer treatment.

By assembling fluorophore-marked DNA stem-loops on the surface of gold nanobipyramids (AuNBPs) with an efficient photothermal conversion, we fabricated a multifunctional photothermal reagent (AuNBPs-mPEG/AA-TR). The sgc8 sequences that were embedded inside the DNA stem-loops can specifically target the PTK7, an overexpressed protein located on the surface of CCRF-CEM cells (human acute lymphoblastic leukemia T lymphocyte) to realize an active targeting function. Before the AuNBPs-mPEG/AA-TR bind to the PTK7 proteins, the DNA stem-loops are folded, and the fluorophore linked on the DNA stem-loop will be close to the AuNBPs. In this configuration, the fluorescence from the fluorophore is quenched by the AuNBPs. However, when the AuNBPs-mPEG/AA-TR bound to the PTK7 proteins through the sgc8 sequences, the DNA stem-loops can be opened partially to enable the fluorophore to be far away from the AuNBPs. As a result, the fluorescent signal will be activated. Therefore, the fluorescence can be used as a visual signal to reveal the binding between the AuNBPs-mPEG/AA-TR and CCRF-CEM cells (usually called activatable fluorescence labelling). While under irradiation of an 808 nm laser, the CCRF-CEM cells could be ablated through the photothermal therapy of the AuNBPs-mPEG/AA-TR with a high photothermal efficiency. Applying the AuNBPs-mPEG/AA-TR to Human B lymphoma cells (Ramos cells) and CCRF-CEM cells, we found that only the CCRF-CEM cells can be effectively targeted, actively fluorescently labeled, and readily ablated by the AuNBPs-mPEG/AA-TR. This work provides an alternative photothermal agent for the targeted therapy of tumors.

Cancer recurrence and metastasis are two major challenges in the current clinical therapy. Here, we synthesized a novel diketopyrrolopyrrole-based photothermal reagent (DCN) with unique J-aggregation-induced redshift to achieve efficient tumor thermal ablation under safe power (0.33 W/cm 2 ). Meanwhile, S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) was co-loaded with near-infrared (NIR)-absorbing DCN in amphiphilic polymers to realize heat-induced massive release of nitric oxide (NO), which could form oxidant peroxynitrite (ONOO – ) to active MMPs, thereby degrading the compact tumor extracellular matrix (ECM) to improve the ablation depth and infiltration of immune cells. Through a facile supramolecular assembly method, the DCN/SNAP nanoparticles were anchored to liquid nitrogen-frozen cancer cells (LNF), achieving enhanced anti-tumor immune responses and effective inhibition of distant tumor and pulmonary metastases after only one treatment. The safety and effectiveness of this supramolecular cell-conjugation platform were verified by 2D/3D cellular experiments and bilateral tumor model, confirming the thermal ablation-gas permeation-antigen presentation therapeutic mode had promising anticancer prospects.
