Near-infrared (NIR) light-triggered drug release systems are promising for drug delivery applications in view of the advantages of NIR light, which include high tissue penetration and low damage. In this report, we developed nanogels (NGs) by supramolecular self-assembly from adamantine (AD)-conjugated copolymer, poly[poly(ethylene glycol)monomethyl ether metharcylate]-co-poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide)-co-poly(N-adamantan-1-yl-2-methacrylamide) (PPEGMA-co-PHPMA-co-PADMA), and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-functionalized poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimer based on the host–guest interaction of the AD and β-CD moieties, and they were used to encapsulate indocyanine green (ICG) and doxorubicin (DOX) for combined photothermal-chemotherapy. NGs simultaneously loading ICG and DOX (DINGs) showed significant photothermal effects and stimuli-triggered drug release under NIR laser irradiation by the photothermal-induced relaxation or dissociation of the NGs. In vitro cytotoxicity evaluation of DINGs under NIR irradiation demonstrated the synergistic effects of hyperthermia, photothermal-triggered drug release, and chemotherapy. In vivo investigation revealed their high accumulation in tumor tissue and significant tumor growth suppression under NIR irradiation. These NIR light-triggered drug release NGs represent efficient and promising anticancer drug vectors for the combined photothermal-chemotherapy of cancer to maximize therapeutic efficacy and minimize side effects.

Various architectures of Cu 2 PO 4 OH including multibranches-like, rose-like, rod-like and brick-like were synthesized through a facile solvothermal route, employing different kinds of alcohols as solvents. It was found that the types of the alcohols, the ratios of alcohols to water, and the presence of PEG 2000 played key roles in the aspect of adjusting the growth of Cu 2 PO 4 OH architectures. All of the as-obtained products showed strong and wide absorption in the range of 600–1500 nm. Under the irradiation of a continuous 808 nm laser, the materials exhibited morphology-dependent photothermal performance. The present study not only develops a new strategy to synthesize Cu 2 PO 4 OH with various architectures but also provides a promising near-infrared (NIR) light-driven photothermal agent.

The limited depth of the near infrared (NIR) response is one of the major flaws of the present photothermal therapy (PTT). In this article, thermosensitive polyurethane urea (TPUU) was synthesized by polymerization. Subsequent experiments showed that, compared with classical photosensitizers, TPUU has higher photothermal effects and lower cytotoxicity. These valuable properties could make the present PTT research provide more therapeutic options among different tissues and organs. As a practical example, TPUU was applied to regulate the intestinal flora through external NIR irradiation, which implied its promising expanded applications in deeper tissues.

Non-rare earth ion-activated Yb 3+ -rich fluoride matrix luminescent materials exhibit higher absorption efficiency under near-infrared (NIR) laser excitation, and are more suitable for upconversion (UC) photoluminescence and optical heating applications. These materials are highly promising fluorescent self-labeling nano-heaters. In this work, Bi 3+ -codoped β-NaYbF 4 :Tm 3+ UC nanomaterials were synthesized by combining the hydrothermal reaction with the molten salt method. The effects of Bi 3+ doping on the crystalline phase composition, micromorphology, upconversion luminescence (UCL) properties, spectral characteristics , and optical heating performance of the synthesized materials were investigated in detail. The co-doping of 5–20 mol% Bi 3+ was found to significantly enhance the near-infrared (NIR) UCL intensity of NaYbF 4 : Tm 3+ . In particular, t he sample doped with 15 mol% Bi 3+ emitted nearly pure 801 nm monochromatic near-infrared light under 980 nm optical excitation , and its I NIR /I Blue ratio increased dramatically from 0.97 without Bi 3+ doping to 1599. This material exhibited efficient photothermal conversion capability, and the center temperature of the sample can reach ∼147.6 °C under 10 s laser irradiation, achieving a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 129.53 °C W −1 , together with excellent photothermal conversion stability. The mechanism behind the enhanced NIR emission of Bi 3+ -doped nanomaterials was also elucidated based on the energy level transition strategy.

Ti 3 C 2 MXenes, a novel two-dimensional material, have attracted lots of attention in biomedical filed for its large surface area and excellent near-infrared (NIR) responsiveness. In this paper, a pH/near-infrared (NIR) multi-responsive drug delivery platform consisted of hollow hydroxyapatite (HAP), chitosan (CS)/hyaluronic acid (HA) multilayers, gold nanorods (AuNRs) and MXene had been fabricated via a layer-by-layer (LbL) approach. Chitosan/hyaluronic acid multilayers were deposited on the surface of hollow HAP to retard the burst release of DOX in the initial delivery stage. MXenes and AuNRs equipped on the surface of hybrid matrix greatly enhanced the photothermal conversion efficiency of the microcapsules. Due to the collapse of electrostatic force among chitosan/hyaluronic acid multilayers and the dissolution of HAP under acidic condition, as well as the synergistically enhanced photothermal effect between MXene and AuNRs, HAP/CS/HA/MXene/AuNRs microcapsules exhibited outstanding pH-/NIR-responsive drug delivery properties. The present paper provides an attractive method to prepare chitosan/hyaluronic acid based pH/NIR multi-responsive hybrid microcapsules with excellent photothermal conversion efficiency and biocompatibility, which has great potential in the field of remotely controlled drug delivery.

Due to the low background and deep tissue penetration of near-infrared light, near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) probes have received much attention in recent years. Cell membrane targeting probes can be used in in vitro and in vivo for living cell imaging, disease diagnosis and tumor targeted therapy. However, most of the currently available cell membrane probes are blue or green emissive fluorophores, NIRF probes are relatively rare. Herein, we designed and prepared a NIRF chimeric peptide probe named C 16 -CARK, which could target the tumor cell membrane with longtime retention (more than 4 h). Moreover, the C 16 -CARK can heat and disrupt the cell membrane upon high irradiation dose, revealing its dual roles as a cell membrane imaging probe and a photothermal agent. This kind of near-infrared fluorescence probe with cell membrane targeting and retention property provides a well design paradigm for the field of cancer imaging and treatment.

The use of non-toxic or low toxicity materials exhibiting dual functionality for use in sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping and cancer therapy has attracted considerable attention during the past two decades. Herein, we report that the natural black sesame melanin (BSM) extracted from black sesame seeds ( Sesamum indicum L.) shows exciting potential for SLN mapping and cancer photothermal therapy. Aqueous solutions of BSM under neutral and alkaline conditions can assemble into sheet-like nanoparticles ranging from 20 to 200 nm in size. The BSM nanoparticles were encapsulated by liposomes to improve their water solubility and the encapsulated and bare BSM nanoparticles were both non-toxic to cells. Furthermore, the liposome-encapsulated BSM nanoparticles (liposome-BSM) did not exhibit any long-term toxicity in mice. The liposome-BSM nanoparticles were subsequently used to passively target healthy and tumor-bearing mice SLNs, which were identified by the black color of the nanoparticles. BSM also strongly absorbed light in the near-infrared (NIR) range, which was rapidly converted to heat energy . Human esophagus carcinoma cells (Eca-109) were killed efficiently by liposome-BSM nanocomposites upon NIR laser irradiation. Furthermore, mouse tumor tissues grown from Eca-109 cells were seriously damaged by the photothermal effects of the liposome-BSM nanocomposites, with significant tumor growth suppression compared with controls. Given that BSM is a safe and nutritious biomaterial that can be easily obtained from black sesame seed, the results presented herein represent an important development in the use of natural biomaterials for clinical SLN mapping and cancer therapy.

Bismuth selenide (Bi2Se3) attracts a lot of attention nowadays due to its unique electronic and thermoelectric properties. In this study, fabrication of Bi2Se3 nanosheets by selenite-reducing bacterium (SeRB) was first reported. Morphology, size, and location of the biogenic Bi2Se3 are bacteria-dependent. It is difficult to separate Bi2Se3 generated by Bacillus cereus CC-1 (Bi2Se3-C) from the biomass because of strong interaction with the cell membrane. However, Bi2Se3 produced by Lysinibacillus sp. ZYM-1 (Bi2Se3-Z), is highly dispersed in extracellular space with high stability. Further characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) on Bi2Se3-Z indicates that the product is a rhombohedral-phase, ultrathin nanosheet-like structure with an average size of ∼100 nm. Subsequently, the photothermal performance of Bi2Se3-Z with the irradiation of 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser was determined. When the Bi2Se3-Z concentration was 26 mg L–1, and irradiation power was 2 W, the photothermal conversion efficiency was calculated as 30.7%. At the same condition, 100% of the MCF7 and A549 cancer cells were killed within 10 min of irradiation in vitro. Moreover, using 1% (v/v) PVP as surfactant, a novel nanodumbbell structure of Bi2Se3 was obtained. Overall, this bacteria-driven Bi2Se3 fabrication paves a new way for biocompatible photothermal nanomaterials.

As a novel two-dimensional material, Ti 3 C 2 MXenes has attracted lots of attention in biomedical filed for its large surface area and excellent near-infrared (NIR) responsiveness. In this paper, an in-situ growth and self-assembly approach was employed to combine gold nanorods (GNRs) with Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets to prepare intelligent sandwich-like Ti 3 C 2 @GNRs/PDA/Ti 3 C 2 nanohybrids . Compared with Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets, in-situ growth Ti 3 C 2 @GNRs possessed excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (45.89%), caused by the distinguished photothermal synergy between GNRs and Ti 3 C 2 nanosheets. Moreover, the high specific surface area of Ti 3 C 2 MXene and outstanding adhesion performance of PDA endowed Ti 3 C 2 @GNRs/PDA/Ti 3 C 2 nanohybrids with superior drug loading ability for doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) (95.88%). Besides, Ti 3 C 2 @GNRs/PDA/Ti 3 C 2 nanohybrids displayed distinct pH/NIR responsive drug release properties upon NIR irradiation owing to the strong π-π stacking interaction between Ti 3 C 2 @GNRs/PDA/Ti 3 C 2 and DOX, along with the excellent NIR-responsiveness of Ti 3 C 2 @GNRs/PDA/Ti 3 C 2 . This paper offers a practicable method to prepare Ti 3 C 2 MXene-based nanoplatform with synergistically enhanced NIR drug release behavior, brilliant biocompatibility and high drug loading efficiency, which is expected to be applied in remote cancer therapy.

Herein, new near-infrared (NIR) luminescent ruthenium complexes were prepared for detecting Cu2+ ions. Then, ruthenium complex hybrid nanomaterials (Ru–LPMSNs) were fabricated successfully by imbedding the ruthenium complex into mesoporous silica nanoparticles. Benefiting from the novel large-pore mesoporous structure and good adsorbility of LPMSNs, Ru–LPMSN hybrid materials showed a significantly enhanced fluorescence intensity and stability. NIR fluorescence of Ru–LPMSNs was rapidly quenched by Cu2+ ions. Ru–LPMSNs also showed high Cu2+ ion selectivity and sensitivity as a sensor. The detection limit of Cu2+ ions was 10 nM with a wide linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity of Ru–LPMSNs and the concentration of Cu2+ ions. The mechanism of fluorescence quenching might be that the combination of the ruthenium complex and Cu2+ ions constrained the photoinduced electron-transfer process. Furthermore, Ru–LPMSNs dramatically increased the fluorescence signals in cells and achieved Cu2+-ion detection. Ru–LPMSNs had different tissue affinities and could monitor distribution of exogenous Cu2+ ions in vivo. Moreover, Ru–LPMSNs realized direct and rapid detection of Cu2+-ion content in serum. These results indicated the potential applications of the prepared nanomaterials as Cu2+ detection agents.

In this study, a series of near-infrared (NIR) KZnF3:Cr3+ phosphors was prepared by different chromium sources using a HF-free hydrothermal method. The influence of different chromium sources on the crystal structure, morphology, and luminescence properties of Cr3+-doped KZnF3 phosphors were systematically investigated. The results showed that the chromium source changed from CrF3·xH2O to (NH4)3CrF6 and leaded to an increased crystal field, resulting in a blue shift of the emission peak position from 803 nm to 753 nm, accompanied by the full-width half maximum (FWHM) reduced from 140 nm to 122 nm. Moreover, KZnF3:0.03Cr3+ (CrF3·xH2O) and KZnF3:0.03Cr3+ ((NH4)3CrF6) phosphors maintained 58% and 87% of their initial room-temperature intensity at 423 K, respectively. These results indicated that altering the synthetic raw materials provided new insights for designing NIR phosphors with highly thermal stability.

Graphical Large-scale 2D α-In 2 Se 3 nanosheets were prepared by a solvent exfoliation technique. The obtained α-In 2 Se 3 nanosheets exhibit excellent near-infrared (NIR) photothermal performance under an 808 nm laser irradiation, which leads to a significant antibacterial effect. The excellent photothermal performance highlights the potential application in chemical and biological fields of α-In 2 Se 3 nanosheets. Two-dimensional (2D) nanoflakes represent an appealing class of materials for optoelectronics applications due to their unique layered structures and excellent electronic properties. However, the lack of easy-to-manipulate and effective methods for large-scale production of these 2D materials limits their potential for applications. Also, few efforts have been made to explore their applications in biological fields. This work reports the preparation of large quantities of 2D In 2 Se 3 nanosheets through a solvent exfoliation technique. Transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy results show that the In 2 Se 3 nanosheets are obtained with lateral sizes of tens of nanometers to hundreds of nanometers and thickness of 2–17 layers. Raman features coupled with the X-ray diffractometry results unequivocally confirm the as-prepared In 2 Se 3 nanosheets to be α phase. Moreover, these α-In 2 Se 3 nanosheets exhibit an excellent near-infrared (NIR) photothermal performance under an 808 nm laser irradiation. NIR photo-excitation of the α-In 2 Se 3 nanosheets in the presence of bacteria leads to a significant antibacterial effect, suggesting that these nanosheets have great potential to be photothermal antibacterial agents. Our work on α-In 2 Se 3 nanosheets presents an available method for exfoliating 2D layered materials, and highlights the potential application in chemical and biological fields of α-In 2 Se 3 nanosheets.
