In this study, the potentiality of applying attenuated total reflectance near-infrared (ATR-NIR) and attenuated total reflectance mid-infrared (ATR-MIR) techniques combined with a partial least squares (PLS) regression technology to quantify the total polyphenols (TPs) in Dendrobium huoshanense (DHS) was investigated and compared. The real TP contents in the DHS samples were analysed using methods of reference. The capability of the two IR spectroscopic techniques to quantify the TPs in DHS was assessed by the root-mean-square error of calibration (RMSEC) and determination coefficients ( R 2 ). The results showed that both NIR and MIR might be used as a fast and simple tool to replace traditional chemical assays for the determination of the TP contents in DHS, and the best NIR model showed slightly better prediction performance [root-mean-square error of prediction (RMSEP): 0.307, R 2 : 0.9122, ratio performance deviation (RPD): 4.43] than the best MIR model (RMSEP: 0.440, R 2 : 0.9069, RPD: 3.09). Results from this study indicated that both the NIR and MIR models could be used to quantify the TP in DHS, and ATR-NIR appeared to be the more predominant and more robust technique for the quantification of the TP in DHS.

Tungsten oxide is a promising nanodrug in phototherapy via transforming light energy to reactive oxygen species and heat. Nevertheless, the phototherapeutic activity of the tungsten oxide nanomaterials is generally activated under 980 nm laser, which is close to the absorption of normal tissue, resulting in unfavorable heating effect on normal tissues. Therefore, the tungsten oxide nanomaterials which can be excited under 808 nm are highly required to avoid overheating and obtain deep tissue penetration of near-infrared (NIR) laser. Here, we successfully synthesized a novel dopamine enveloped tungsten oxide nanodots (WO 3−x /Dpa-Mel NPs) via facile one-step solvothermal route, using dopamine as the template and reductant in triethylene glycol solvent. Under the 808 nm laser irradiation, the as-obtained WO 3−x /Dpa-Mel NPs exhibit excellent photodynamic activity and stability. Meanwhile, the WO 3−x /Dpa-Mel NPs also possess high photothermal conversion property. Thus, the photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) can be triggered simultaneously under single 808 nm laser irradiation. Additionally, the inherited good biocompatibility and dispersity in aqueous solution from dopamine hydrochloride (Dpa-Mel) also make the WO 3−x /Dpa-Mel NPs more suitable for in vivo application. The as-obtained WO 3−x /Dpa-Mel NPs exhibit an excellent synergistic phototherapy effect on solid tumor ablation in vivo without damaging healthy tissues under single 808 nm NIR light irradiation, indicating WO 3−x /Dpa-Mel NPs can serve as a multifunctional therapeutic nanoplatform to realize the synergistic cancer therapy.

Real-time tracking drug release behavior is fundamentally important for avoiding adverse effects or unsuccessful treatment in personalize medical treatment. However, the development of a non-invasive drug reporting platform still remains challenging. Herein the design of a novel synthetic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) agent for drug release tracking (SMART) is reported, which integrates photothermal core and paramagnetic ion/drug loading shell with a thermal valve in a hybrid structure. Through near-infrared (NIR)-II photothermal effect originating from inner Au-Cu 9 S 5 nanohybrid core, burst release of drugs loaded in the mesoporous silica shell is achieved. The concomitant use of a phase change material not only prevents premature drug release, but also regulates heating effect, keeping local temperature below 45 °C, enabling synergistic chemotherapy and mild hyperthermia in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, the drug release from SMART facilitates proton accessibility to the paramagnetic ions anchored inside mesopores channels, enhancing longitudinal T 1 relaxation rate and displaying positive signal correlation to the amount of released drug, thus allowing non-invasive real-time monitoring of drug release event. The current study highlights the potential of designed MRI nanophores such as SMART for real-time and in-situ monitoring of drug delivery for precision theranostic applications.

Silver chalcogenide (Ag2X; X = S, Se, Te) quantum dots (QDs) have facilitated the biomedical applications of QDs due to their low toxicity and tunable emission reaching the second near-infrared window (NIR-II window, 1000–1700 nm). The photoluminescence intensity of Ag2S QDs and Ag2Se QDs is considerably enhanced via Pb doping. However, the developed Pb-doped Ag2S QDs lacked in vivo verification, and the toxicity of the Pb-doped Ag2X QDs was only preliminarily assessed. Although QDs containing Pb have been widely introduced into the field of biomedicine, there are still concerns regarding toxicity associated with Pb. In the present study, we prepared polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified Pb-doped Ag2S QDs with better biocompatibility and tested their in vivo bioimaging and toxicity in comparison with Ag2S QDs modified with the same PEG under identical concentrations. Results indicated that the PEG-modified Pb-doped Ag2S QDs significantly enhanced the brightness of in vivo bioimaging and spatial resolution for vessels inside the tumor without increasing toxicity, assessed based on cell viability post incubation for 96 h, intracellular ROS level, DNA damage, early apoptosis and mitochondrial injury. Our study demonstrated that the PEG-modified Pb-doped Ag2S QDs could serve as an advanced fluorescent probe for various biomedical applications.

The immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) greatly limits the actual outcome of immunotherapy. Therefore, it is urgent to develop appropriate strategies to reshape the TME and ultimately induce a strong immune response. Here, we developed a dual-functional liposome loaded with the photothermal agent IR808 near the infrared region (NIR) and Toll-like-receptor-7 (TLR7) agonist loxoribine prodrug (Lipo@IR808@Loxo) to achieve NIR light-triggered photothermal therapy (PTT) and the targeted delivery of immune adjuvants. Under NIR irradiation, Lipo@IR808@Loxo could greatly improve the efficiency of PTT to directly kill tumor cells and release tumor-associated antigens, which could work together with loaded loxoribine to relieve the immunosuppressive TME, effectively promoting the activation of antigen-presenting cells and subsequent antigen presentation . In this way, Lipo@IR808@Loxo could act as an in situ therapeutic cancer vaccine, eventually inducing a potent antitumor T-cell response. When further combined with immune checkpoint blockade, Lipo@IR808@Loxo-mediated photothermal immunotherapy could not only eliminate the primary tumors but also inhibit the growth of distant tumors, thus enhancing the abscopal effect.

Photothermal immunotherapy has shown great potential for efficient cancer treatment. However, the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment forms a heavy barrier for photothermal-induced anti-tumor immunity by inhibiting dendritic cells (DCs) maturation and cytotoxic T cell response. Moreover, the lack of reliable spatiotemporal imaging modalities makes photothermal immunotherapy difficult to guide tumor ablation and monitor the therapeutic outcomes in real time. Herein, we designed a theranostic thermosensitive liposome (PLDD) as a versatile nanoplatform to boost adaptive anti-tumor immunity of photothermal immunotherapy and achieve multiple bioimaging modalities in a real-time manner. The PLDD contains two major functional components: a multifunctional photothermal agent (DTTB) and an immune potentiator STING pathway agonist (DMXAA). Upon irradiation, the heat generated by DTTB induced the immunogenic cell death (ICD) of the tumor and dissociated the structure of thermosensitive liposome to release DMXAA, which ultimately activated the STING pathway and promoted the ICD-induced immune response by increasing DC cells maturation and T cell recruitment. Meanwhile, the DTTB in PLDD displayed excellent second near-infrared (NIR-II) fluorescence and photoacoustic (PA) dual-modal imaging, which provided omnibearing information on the tumor and guided the subsequent therapeutic operation. Therefore, this versatile PLDD with light-triggered promotion of anti-tumor immunity and multiple spatiotemporal imaging profiles holds great potential for the future development of cancer immunotherapy.

Fluorescence and magnetic resonance imaging (FL/MRI) has received much attention due to their complementary characteristics. However, the simultaneous enhancement of fluorescence and MR signals plus the efficacy of the treatment is still a major challenge. To tackle this difficulty, we put forward a strategy of aggregation and de-aggregation based on luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) features. NIR II photosensitizer 4,4′-(6,7-diphenyl-[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline-4,9-diyl)bis(N,N-diphenylaniline) (TQ-TPA) with type I reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation ability and amphiphilic 2TPE-Gd were synthesized, and both of them showed the AIE feature. During the construction of nanomicelles, hydrophobic TQ-TPA spontaneously aggregated into the core of the nanomicelles formed by 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-methoxy(polyethylene glycol)-2000 (DSPE-PEG). Meanwhile, aggregates of 2TPE (tetraphenylethylene)-Gd in aqueous solution could be de-aggregated and inserted into the interface, and formed TGdTT nanomicelles (NMs). Based on this strategy and the AIE feature, the TGdTT NMs exhibited strong NIR II fluorescence and type I ROS generation ability, and enhanced T1 relaxivity (r1). Moreover, in vitro, in vivo, and pharmacokinetics results demonstrated that these nanomicelles have good biosafety and a long blood circulation time. Finally, they allowed successful realization of complementary MR/NIR II fluorescence dual-modal imaging-guided photodynamic therapy (PDT) to inhibit tumor growth. This work demonstrated that the aggregation and de-aggregation strategy of AIEgens in core–shell nanomicelles is very attractive for constructing multifunctional theranostic probes.

Developing a hydrogel dressing with excellent antibacterial efficacy for accelerating wound healing is high desirable in clinical applications. In this work, NIR regulated metal-organic framework composite hydrogel dressing was constructed for enhanced antibacterial efficacy and accelerated wound healing via the compounding between hydrogel and UCNPs@ZrMOF-Pt nanoparticles. The visible light emitted from upconvertion nanoparticles (UCNPs) activated porphyrin based metal-organic framework (MOF) in composite hydrogel to generate 1 O 2 for photodynamic antibacterial therapy under NIR laser irradiation. Moreover, the UCNPs@ZrMOF-Pt in composite hydrogel with catalase-like performance could effectively convert the high concentration H 2 O 2 in wound to abundant O 2 , which relieved the hypoxic in infected wound. Thus, the photodynamic antibacterial efficacy was remarkably enhanced, leading to accelerate the wound healing. This work presented a novel strategy for high efficient antibacterial therapy and accelerated wound healing.

Active drug-loaded nanocarriers have been widely employed as efficient drug delivery systems for tumor theranostics. Herein, we report folate-mediated “all-in-one” nanobubbles for tumor-targeted NIR/MR/US imaging and combined chemo-photothermal therapy. The surface-engineered nanobubbles are constructed from oleylamine-/IR-780-loaded hollow structures, folate and the Gd DTPA-BSA@5-FU complex via electrostatic adsorption and further filled with gas after freeze drying. DLS data show that the nanobubbles have a hydrodynamic diameter of 120.41 ± 18.30 nm. TEM observations show a hollow inner cavity and a shell thickness of approximately 10 nm. The relaxivity (r1) of the nanobubbles reaches 16.56 s −1 /mM, indicating suitable features for use as a T1-weighted MR contrast agent. Moreover, due to the gas core inside, the nanobubbles are suitable for ultrasound contrast imaging. Interestingly, ξ-potential data and cumulative release measurements demonstrate that the nanobubbles undergo charge-switchable behaviors and pH-/light-sensitive drug-release behaviors after surface engineering, which could facilitate deep tumor penetration and accelerate drug release for efficient killing of cancer cells. In vivo trimodal imaging and chemo-photothermal therapy for MGC-803 tumor-bearing mice reveal selective tumor accumulation, long tumor retention, and enhanced antitumor behaviors. Therefore, the all-in-one nanobubbles could be applied for active tumor-targeting theranostics.

Background: The design of novel nanoparticles with higher therapeutic efficacy and lower side effects, is still difficult but encouraging in cancer therapy. Specifically, for upconversion nanoparticles (UCNP)-based drug release, a high intensity of NIR light (1.4~5.0 W/cm2) above the maximum permissible exposure (0.33 W/cm2 for 980 nm) is commonly used and severely limits its practical application.Methods: The highly emissive UCNP is first synthesized and then coated with mesoporous silica (MS) shell (UCMS). Next, the surface of UCMS is modified with the thioether (-S-BP) linker, leading to UCMS-S-BP nanoparticles. Finally, after the drug doxorubicin (Dox) is loaded into the pore channels of UCMS, the pore openings are blocked by the β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) gatekeeper through the association with the -S-BP linker (UCMS(Dox)-S-BP@β-CD).Results: Upon 980 nm NIR light irradiation with an ultralow intensity of 0.30 W/cm2, it is found that the loaded Dox can be released through the cleavage of thioether linkers triggering dissociation of β-CD gatekeepers. The in vitro results exhibited significantly therapeutic efficacy with 85.2% of HeLa cells killed in this study.Conclusions: An ultralow-intensity NIR light triggered on-demand drug release system has been developed by employing highly emissive UCNP and photocleavable linker with low bond dissociation energy to avoid the potential photodamage on healthy neighbor cells.

Developing novel stimuli-responsive systems to optimize the co-delivery and concurrent controlled release of different anticancer drugs is highly pursued for reducing the probability of evolution of therapeutic resistance, which is the major cause of cancer mortality. In this work, we report a novel NIR light responsive drug co-delivery system based on hollow mesoporous Prussian blue nanoparticles (HMPBs) and a phase change material (PCM, such as 1-tetradecanol which has a melting point around 38 °C). The fabrication of this PCM@HMPB system simply involves filling the hollow interior and mesoporous shell of the HMPBs with PCM molecules, which acted as both a thermosensitive gatekeeper and a medium for loading both hydrophilic and hydrophobic anticancer drugs. The photothermal effect of the HMPBs under NIR light irradiation would induce the PCM to go through processes of melting and escaping from the HMPBs, concurrently releasing the encapsulated anticancer drugs into the surrounding medium. Notably, the as-prepared (PCM + drugs)@HMPB system could achieve near “zero release” of both hydrophilic doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) and hydrophobic camptothecin (CPT), as well as precise “on” or “off” drug delivery with various NIR light treatments in vitro to efficiently induce cell apoptosis. More importantly, according to the phenomenon that generated heat could improve drug absorption by increasing the cell metabolism and membrane fluidity, the (PCM + drugs)@HMPB system revealed significant photothermal-chemo synergistic effects against HeLa cancer cells. Therefore, the as-prepared (PCM + drugs)@HMPB system has good potential as a versatile NIR light responsive co-delivery platform of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic anticancer drugs for targeting adaptive therapeutic resistance as well as synergistic photothermal-chemo cancer treatment.

A series of new visible and near-infrared (NIR) luminescent lanthanide-hydroxybenz[de]anthracen derivatives (Ln(HBAN) 3 (H 2 O) 2 (NO 3 ) 3 , Ln(HBAN) 3 phen(NO 3 ) 3 ) were synthesized (HBAN-6-hydroxybenz[de]anthracen-7-one, Ln = Eu, Yb, Nd). Further, chemically bonded lanthanide hybrids of functionalized mesoporous silica (SBA-15) are prepared using HBAN-functionalized alkoxysilane (HBAN-Si) as linker, which is named as Ln(HBAN-SBA-15) 3 (NO 3 ) 3 , Ln(HBAN-SBA-15) 3 phen(NO 3 ) 3 (Ln = Eu, Yb, Nd), respectively. The physical characterization and especially the photoluminescence properties for these hybrids are performed. SAXRD and BET of them revealed that all of these hybrid materials have uniformity in the mesostructure. Worth noting here is that the excitation spectra of these hybrid materials are extended to visible light region (439–535 nm). Upon ligand-mediated excitation with the ultraviolet and visible light, the visible luminescence for europium hybrids and NIR luminescence for Yb 3+ and Nd 3+ hybrids are obtained.
