The IR780 iodide (IR780) is recognized as an effective theranostic agent for simultaneous near-infrared fluorescence imaging and photothermal therapy (PTT). However, the rigid chloro-cyclohexenyl ring makes IR780 insoluble in almost all pharmaceutically acceptable solvents, which inevitably limits its clinical application. We report folic acid (FA)-functionalized graphene quantum dots (GQDs-FA) containing a large and intact sp2 domain with carboxyl groups around the edge. Such GQDs-FA possess exceptionally high loading capacity for IR780 via strong π–π stacking interactions, and the water solubility of IR780 is improved by over 2400-fold after loading onto GQDs-FA (IR780/GQDs-FA). IR780/GQDs-FA with an improved photostability, an enhanced tumor-targeting ability, and a high photothermal conversion efficiency of 87.9% were capable of producing sufficient hyperthermia to effectively kill cancer cells and completely eradicate tumors upon 808 nm laser irradiation. The present IR780/GQDs-FA may open up great opportunities for the effective PTT to treat cancer.

Multifunctional phototheranostics combining diagnostic and therapeutic modalities may provide a revolutionary opportunity for cancer treatment. As a promising tumor phototheranostic molecule, IR780 iodide (IR780) shows excellent photodynamic and photothermal performance under near-infrared laser irradiation; however, its hydrophobicity and instability limit its further use in organisms. This work demonstrates the design and development of a multifunctional nanoplatform (PMIDA, referring to polydopamine (PDA)-manganese dioxide (MnO 2 )-IR780) for imaging-guided phototherapy. The good biocompatibility of PDA greatly improves the water solubility and photostability of IR780, and its excellent photothermal properties make PMIDA a dual photothermal therapy (PTT). MnO 2 -induced generation of oxygen in the tumor microenvironment improves the hypoxia effect and photodynamic therapy (PDT) of IR780. Moreover, Mn 2+ serves as a decent T 1 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) probe to guide treatment. Notably, in relevant cellular assays, PMIDA shows high photodynamic and photothermal effects contributing to the final therapeutic effect. The MRI-guided PDT/PTT synergistic therapy effect in vivo is demonstrated by precise tumor diagnosis and complete tumor elimination outcomes. Based on these experiments, PMIDA nanoparticles display promising effects in facilitating intravenous injection of IR780 and achieving magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided phototheranostic efficacy for tumor treatment.

Inertial cavitation is crucial for the therapeutic effects of sonodynamic. Therefore, approaches that can induce highly efficient inertial cavitation should be of benefit for sonodynamic effect. Our previous study demonstrated that highly efficient inertial cavitation activity can be achieved through the combinatorial use of a short-pulsed focused ultrasound (SPFU) sequence and perfluorohexane (PFH) nanodroplets. Herein, we applied the SPFU sequence and PFH nanodroplets in sonodynamic. A hydrophobic sonosensitizer, IR780 iodine, was loaded inside denatured bovine serum albumin-shelled PFH (PFH@BSA-IR780) nanodroplets. The sonodynamic efficacy was validated by treating HeLa cervical cancer cells. Under SPFU exposure, PFH@BSA-IR780 nanodroplets were highly effective in promoting reactive oxygen species generation and inducing cancer cell death. A significant decrease in cell viability was achieved within just 10 s. Besides the cytotoxicity of ROS, the mechanical bioeffects of inertial cavitation also led to severe cell death resulting from higher acoustic power or the longer treatment time. The application of the SPFU sequence coupled with PFH@BSA-IR780 nanodroplets is a promising strategy for efficient sonodynamic.

Rationale: Recently, there is one-fifth of human deaths caused by cancer, leading to cancer treatment remains a hard nut to crack in the medical field. Therefore, as an emerging diagnostic technology, mesoporous nanomaterials-based drug delivery systems integrated diagnosis and therapy have aroused tremendous interest owing to visually targeting effect and superior therapy efficacy compared with traditional cancer treatment. Methods: In this work, we have successfully synthesized mesoporous carbon-gold hybrid nanozyme nanoprobes, whereby mesoporous carbon nanospheres were doped with small gold nanoparticles (OMCAPs) and further stabilized with a complex of reduced serum albumin and folic acid (rBSA-FA). After loading IR780 iodide, the OMCAPs@ rBSA-FA@IR780 nanoprobes were finally accomplished for real-time imaging, photothermal/photodynamic and nanozyme oxidative therapy. Results: Herein, acid oxidized MCAPs possessed large surface area and numerous -COOH groups, which could be used to surface chemically modify numerous targeting molecules and load abundant NIR dye IR780, as well as be acted as photothermal reagents to enhance photothermal therapy effect. In addition, the small Au NPs embedded in OMCAPs were utilized as nanozyme to catalyze H 2 O 2 located in tumor cells to generate ·OH for intracellular oxidative damage of tumor. Besides, as a commonly used near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence dye, the loaded IR780 iodide could not only apply for real-time imaging, but also effectively enhance photo-thermal therapy (PTT) upon the 808 nm laser irradiation. Moreover, FA molecules could enhance the targeted efficiency of the nanoprobes to the gastric tumor site. According to the systematical study in vitro and in vivo , our fabricated nanoprobes based on carbon-gold hybrid (OMCAPs@ rBSA-FA@IR780) revealed excellent tumor targeting efficacy, long tumor retention and favorably therapeutic effect for tumor. Conclusion: All the results demonstrated that here synthesized probes exhibited excellently diagnostic and therapeutic performance, indicating our technology may potentially offer an outstanding strategy for tumor-targeting theranostics.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) stands out as one of the most prevalent gastrointestinal cancers. Current treatment strategies for CRC are significantly hindered by systemic toxicity and suboptimal therapeutic efficacy. This study aims to overcome these limitations by developing a robust tumor-targeting chemo-photothermal strategy, combining Bortezomib (BTZ) as a proteasome inhibitor, IR780 iodide as a near-infrared dye, and Photothermal Therapy (PTT) agent, with hyaluronic acid (HA) serving as the shell for tumor targeting, denoted as HA/PB@IR780. The investigations reveal the impressive tumor-targeting affinity of HA/PB@IR780, leading to a synergistic chemo-photothermal therapeutic effect both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, this material demonstrates the capability for drug release triggered by low pH conditions. Moreover, HA/PB@IR780 induced the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), triggered cells apoptosis via the PERK-CHOP-Bcl-2 pathway, and induced Immunogenic Cell Death (ICD) in CT26 cells. Importantly, HA/PB@IR780 selectively targets tumor sites, mitigating systemic toxic side effects and significantly extending the survival of CT26 tumor-bearing mice. In conclusion, this designed tumor-targeting nanocarrier represents a promising and potentially effective platform for the precise treatment of CRC.

Phototherapy has garnered worldwide attention for its minimal invasiveness, controllability, and spatial selectivity in treating cancer. One promising approach involves the use of near-infrared dye IR780, which demonstrates both photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) effects under 808 nm laser irradiation. However, this hydrophobic dye's toxicity and limited tumor targeting severely hamper its suitability for cancer applications. Herein, a biocompatible nanoplatform CoOOH-IR780@BSA (CoIRB) has been developed to efficiently deliver IR780 and provide multi-mode treatments for colon tumors. Due to the nanocarrier coating, CoIRB nanoparticles demonstrated reliable dispersion and stability, and their biotoxicity was substantially reduced for safer blood circulation, which overcame the biological barrier of IR780. The nanoplatform has also shown considerable results in phototherapy in vivo and in vitro experiments, with successful inhibition of MC38 tumor growth through intravenous administration. Additionally, the introduction of cobalt ions could induce Fenton-like reactions to activate the production of toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH), exerting an assistive chemodynamic therapy (CDT) effect. Notably, these nanodrugs also exhibited potential as scavengers of reductive glutathione (GSH) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) leading to amplifying oxidative damage of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Overall, the versatile therapeutic platform, CoIRB, has opened up considerable prospects as a biotherapeutic option for combining PDT/PTT/CDT against colon cancer.
