Here, Co 9 S 8 / [email protected] ( [email protected] ) nanocomposites are synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal process. Firstly, sulfur-doped carbon dots (S-CDs) are prepared by using 3-mercaptopropionic acid as a precursor. A region with denser –SH group is regarded as nucleation site on S-CDs for the growth of Co 9 S 8 to induce heterostructure. As-synthesized [email protected] possess great harvest in NIR region and hyperthermia (51.5%, 1064 nm) for photothermal (PTT). Besides, hyperthermia can elevate the thermal energy of nanocomposite to assist low-energy NIR-II irradiation (1064 nm, 1.16 eV), realizing the excitation of Co 9 S 8 (1.46 eV) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation for photodynamic therapy (PDT). What's more, [email protected] exhibits GOx-like activity that could consume glucose to elevate H 2 O 2 level and inhibit intracellular energy supply. In addition, they also show mimic peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) characterization, and the tandem multi-nanozye activities endue the enhanced chemotherapy (CDT) and PDT. [email protected] reveals the greater ROS generation and nanozyme activity compared with pure Co 9 S 8 @PEG, attributing to the efficient charge separation in heterostructure. The novel biodegradation of [email protected] makes the elimination via feces and urine within 2 weeks. That is associated with PTT/PDT/CDT/starvation therapy to activate immune response for anticancer.

Near-infrared light (NIR) driven lanthanide-doped upconversion nanoparticle (UCNP) based photo-dynamic therapy (PDT) holds a great promise for the non-invasive treatment of deep-seated tumors. However, it has also been highly hindered by the low upconversion luminescence (UCL) efficiency, hypoxia nature of solid tumors, and low therapeutic efficiency using single modality. Herein, we present a novel Nd3+ → Yb3+ → Tm3+ → Er3+ cascade-sensitized red-emitting UCNP with tandem hydrophobic hydration-shell (HHS) and metal-phenolic network (Fe-tannic acid, Fe-TA) decoration (UCNP@HHS@Fe-TA, denoted as UCFS@Fe-TA) for single 808 nm triggered simultaneous tumor PDT and photothermal therapy (PTT) enhanced chemo-dynamic therapy (CDT). The UCNP can supply intense red emission under high tissue penetrating/minimized tissue overheating 808 nm excitation, and their HHS coating with perfluorocarbon/photosensitizer Ce6 co-doping can not only realize UCL-based PDT, but also strengthen PDT of as-formed UCFS via O2-carrying/UCL protection capacity of the HHS. Fe-TA coating can supply 808 nm triggered PTT, and the rise in temperature during PTT leads to enhanced Fenton catalytic activity of Fe-TA and faster ˙OH production rate of CDT to match with the real-timely released 1O2 in PDT. The as-designed UCFS@Fe-TA thus can achieve a single 808 nm triggered simultaneous PDT and PTT enhanced CDT, leading to a PTT-assisted reactive oxygen species storm for efficient tumor suppression. Such a design also renders the nanoplatform lower cell dark toxicity. In addition, the single excitation-triggered multimodal therapy mode might address the excitation wavelength mismatch issue in dual laser-triggered PTT/PDT mode. This study has therefore presented an efficient nanotherapeutic platform enabling synergistic multimodal tumor therapies with high biocompatibility.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has witnessed remarkable progress in recent years owing to its specific properties. Given that the antioxidation system of tumor microenvironment (TME) adversely affects treatment outcomes, powerful TME modulators can significantly resolve the limitation of PDT. Herein, we developed a PEG-modified Cu 2+ -doped hollow mesoporous carbon nanozyme (CHC-PEG) and loaded insoluble photosensitizer IR780 into its pores and cavities to construct the multifunctional nano-system IR780/CHCP. CHC-PEG nanozyme could perform photothermal therapy (PTT) effect and protect IR780 from aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect, while exerting peroxidase (POD)-mimetic activity and the ability of consuming glutathione (GSH) to achieve oxidative stress-augmented PDT effect. When exposed to near-infrared (NIR) light, IR780 was stimulated to produce singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) and CHC-PEG could increase the temperature of TME to exert stronger POD-mimetic activity for producing more hydroxyl radicals ( OH), therefore the IR780/CHCP nano-system exhibited remarkable tumor growth inhibition. Benefited by the enhanced synergistic effect, IR780/CHCP exhibited remarkable in vivo tumor growth inhibition, with the tumor inhibition rate of 93 %, and had no significant effect on major organs. Above all, IR780/CHCP could resist the antioxidant system in TME to enhance the level of oxidative stress, thereby enabling effective anti-tumor therapy. This study introduced a novel strategy to effectively promote the synergistic PTT/PDT effect by the enhanced oxidative stress.

Purpose The search for effective and low-risk treatment methods for colorectal cancer (CRC) is a pressing concern, given the inherent risks and adverse reactions associated with traditional therapies. Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as a promising approach for cancer treatment, offering advantages such as non-radiation, non-invasiveness, and targeted treatment. Consequently, the development of nanoparticles with high stability, biocompatibility, and photothermal effects has become a significant research focus within the field of PTT.Methods In this study, TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites were synthesized and characterized, and their photothermal conversion efficiency in the near-infrared region II (NIR-II) was determined. Then studied the in vivo and in vitro photothermal activity and anti-tumor effect of TiO2-Ti3C2 in human colorectal cancer cell lines and nude mice subcutaneous tumor model.Results The results showed that TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites have strong absorption ability in the NIR-II, and have high photothermal conversion efficiency under 1064 nm (0.5 W/cm2, 6 min) laser stimulation. In addition, in vitro experiments showed that TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites significantly inhibited the invasion, migration, and proliferation of colorectal cancer cells, and induced cell apoptosis; in vivo, experiments showed that TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites-mediated PTT had good biocompatibility and efficient targeted inhibition of tumor growth.Conclusion In conclusion, TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites can be used as NIR-II absorption materials in PTT to suppress the invasion, migration, and proliferation of colorectal cancer cells, induce colorectal cancer cell apoptosis, and thus inhibit the development of CRC. Therefore, TiO2-Ti3C2 nanocomposites can be used as potential anti-tumor drugs for photothermal ablation of colorectal cancer cells.

Background Infectious diseases caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, especially MDR Gram-negative strains, have become a global public health challenge. Multifunctional nanomaterials for controlling MDR bacterial infections via eradication of planktonic bacteria and their biofilms are of great interest.Results In this study, we developed a multifunctional platform (TG-NO-B) with single NIR laser-triggered PTT and NO release for synergistic therapy against MDR Gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms. When located at the infected sites, TG-NO-B was able to selectively bind to the surfaces of Gram-negative bacterial cells and their biofilm matrix through covalent coupling between the BA groups of TG-NO-B and the bacterial LPS units, which could greatly improve the antibacterial efficiency, and reduce side damages to ambient normal tissues. Upon single NIR laser irradiation, TG-NO-B could generate hyperthermia and simultaneously release NO, which would synergistically disrupt bacterial cell membrane, further cause leakage and damage of intracellular components, and finally induce bacteria death. On one hand, the combination of NO and PTT could largely improve the antibacterial efficiency. On the other hand, the bacterial cell membrane damage could improve the permeability and sensitivity to heat, decrease the photothermal temperature and avoid damages caused by high temperature. Moreover, TG-NO-B could be effectively utilized for synergistic therapy against the in vivo infections of MDR Gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms and accelerate wound healing as well as exhibit excellent biocompatibility both in vitro and in vivo.Conclusion sOur study demonstrates that TG-NO-B can be considered as a promising alternative for treating infections caused by MDR Gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms.

Hydrogels can be used to prolong the retention of photothermal agents in tumors to conduct repeated photothermal therapy (PTT) and thus reduce high-dose-induced toxicity, but the long-term retention of photothermal nanoparticles post-therapy still increases the risk of toxicity. In this work, we developed an injectable and degradable photothermal hydrogel to conduct repeated PTT. The hydrogel was composed of dendrimer-encapsulated platinum nanoparticles (DEPts) crosslinked aldehyde-modified dextran via imine bond formation. The hydrogel represented excellent photothermal effect and good biocompatibility. It was able to remain in tumors for a period of days to allow repeated PTT, leading to complete tumor regression. After treatment, the hydrogel was gradually degraded due to the decomposition of imine bonds. The study developed a practical photothermal hydrogel that allowed repeated PTT and reduced long-term retention-induced toxicity.

The metastasis and recurrence of tumors are the main reasons for cancer death. In this work, a promising therapy for tumor treatment that can eliminate primary tumors and prevent tumor relapses is introduced by combining chemotherapy, photothermal therapy (PTT) and immunotherapy. Multifunctional FePt/MoS2-FA nanocomposites (FPMF NCs) were obtained via anchoring FePt nanoparticles and folic acid (FA) on MoS2 nanosheets. As an efficient ferroptosis agent, FePt nanoparticles could catalyze the Fenton reaction to produce the reactive oxygen species (ROS). Through the highly effective photothermal conversion of MoS2 nanosheets, the primary tumor cells could be ablated by photothermal therapy (PTT). Moreover, the metastatic tumors were eliminated effectively with the help of oligodeoxynucleotides containing cytosine–guanine (CpG ODNs) combined with systemic checkpoint blockade therapy using an anti-CTLA4 antibody. Even more intriguingly, a strong immunological memory effect was obtained by this synergistic therapy. Taking all these results into consideration, we anticipate that the photo-chemo-immunotherapy strategies show great promise toward the development of a multifunctional platform for anticancer therapeutic applications.

Multimodal treatment modalities hold great potential for cancer therapy, thus current efforts are focusing on the development of more effective and practical synergistic therapeutic platforms. Herein, we present a novel trans, trans,trans -[Pt(N 3 ) 2 (OH) 2 (py) 2 ] (Pt(IV)) prodrug-initiated hydrogel microparticles (M ICG-Pt ) with indocyanine green (ICG) encapsulation by microfluidics for efficiently synergistic chemo-, photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). The employed Pt(IV) could not only serves as an initiator to generate azidyl radical (N 3 • ) for photo-polymerization of methacrylate gelatin (GelMA) matrix, but also be reduced to high cytotoxic platinum(II) (Pt(II)) species for tumor chemotherapy. The laden ICG with highly photothermal heating ability and intrinsic reactive oxygen species (ROS) productivity endows the M ICG-Pt with effective PTT/PDT performances upon near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation. In addition, benefiting from the production of oxygen during the photo-activation process of Pt(IV), the PDT efficacy of ICG-laden M ICG-Pt could be further enhanced. Based on these advantages, we have demonstrated that the M ICG-Pt could significantly eliminate cancer cells in vitro , and remarkably suppressed the tumor growth in vivo via synergistic chemotherapy, PTT, and PDT. These results indicate that such Pt(IV)-initiated hydrogel microparticles are ideal candidates of multimodal treatment platforms, holding great prospects for cancer therapy.

Nanotechnology-based strategy has recently drawn extensive attention for the therapy of malignant tumors due to its distinct strengths in cancer diagnosis and treatment. However, the limited intratumoral permeability of nanoparticles is a major hurdle to achieving the desired effect of cancer treatment. Due to their superior cargo towing and reliable penetrating property, micro-/nanomotors (MNMs) are considered as one of the most potential candidates for the coming generation of drug delivery platforms. Here, near-infrared (NIR)-actuated biomimetic nanomotors (4T1-JPGSs-IND) are fabricated successfully and we demonstrate that 4T1-JPGSs-IND selectively accumulate in homologous tumor regions due to the effective homing ability. Upon laser irradiation, hyperthermia generated by 4T1-JPGSs-IND leads to self-thermophoretic motion and photothermal therapy (PTT) to ablate tumors with a deep depth, thereby improving the photothermal therapeutic effect for cancer management. The developed nanomotor system with multifunctionalities exhibits promising potential in biomedical applications to fight against various diseases.

Nanomaterial-mediated photothermal therapy (PTT) is a promising strategy for permanent male sterilization owing to its easy operation, rapid heating, minimal invasiveness, and high spatiotemporal controllability. However, the currently available PTT for male sterilization utilizes irradiation sources in the first near-infrared window (NIR-I), which may suffer from incomplete sterilization due to the insufficient penetration depth of NIR-I light. Herein, we developed a facile one-pot hydrothermal synthetic method of cysteine-coated copper sulfide (Cys-CuS) nanosheets for the second NIR window (NIR-II) PTT-mediated permanent male sterilization. In this method, Cys acted not only as a template but also as a sulfur resource in the formation of Cys-CuS nanosheets. The obtained Cys-CuS nanosheets possessed good photothermal properties and satisfied deep-tissue light response capacity under 1064 nm laser exposure. Given this, the permanent male sterilization in vivo was readily achieved by Cys-CuS nanosheets in a rapid manner (only 40 s). To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time that nanomaterial-mediated NIR-II PTT is applied for permanent male sterilization. We believe that the facilely prepared biocompatible Cys-CuS nanosheets can serve as a promising NIR-II light-responsive nanoknife to control the overpopulation of domestic pets and stray animals.

Osteosarcoma is usually resistant to immunotherapy and, thus primarily relies on surgical resection and high-dosage chemotherapy. Unfortunately, less invasive or toxic therapies such as photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) generally failed to show satisfactory outcomes. Adequate multimodal therapies with proper safety profiles may provide better solutions for osteosarcoma. Herein, a simple nanocomposite that synergistically combines CDT, PTT, and chemotherapy for osteosarcoma treatment was fabricated. In this composite, small 2D NiFe-LDH flakes were processed into 3D hollow nanospheres via template methods to encapsulate 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) with high loading capacity. The nanospheres were then adsorbed onto larger 2D Ti 3 C 2 MXene monolayers and finally shielded by bovine serum albumin (BSA) to form 5-FU@NiFe-LDH/Ti 3 C 2 /BSA nanoplatforms (5NiTiB). Both in vitro and in vivo data demonstrated that the 5-FU induced chemotherapy, NiFe-LDH driven chemodynamic effects, and MXene-based photothermal killing collectively exhibited a synergistic “all-in-one” anti-tumor effect. 5NiTiB improved tumor suppression rate from <5 % by 5-FU alone to ∼80.1 %. This nanotherapeutic platform achieved higher therapeutic efficacy with a lower agent dose, thereby minimizing side effects. Moreover, the composite is simple to produce, enabling the fine-tuning of dosages to suit different requirements. Thus, the platform is versatile and efficient, with potential for further development.

Silk fibroin (SF), derived from Bombyx mori, is a category of fibrous protein with outstanding potential for applications in the biomedical and biotechnological fields. In spite of its many advantageous properties, the exploration of SF as a versatile nanodrug precursor for tumor therapy has still been restricted in recent years. Herein, a multifunctional SF-derived nanoplatform was facilely developed via encapsulating the photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) into MnO2-capped SF nanoparticles (NPs). SF@MnO2 nanocarriers were synthesized through a surface crystallization technique, using SF as a reductant and sacrificial template. Afterwards, Ce6 was covalently incorporated into the loose structure of the SF@MnO2 nanocarrier on the basis of adsorption to abundant peptide-binding sites. To modulate the tumor microenvironment (TME), SF@MnO2/Ce6 (SMC) NPs were capable of catalyzing the decomposition of H2O2 into O2, which can be converted into cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) during photodynamic therapy (PDT). Moreover, the MnO2 component was able to oxidize intracellular glutathione (GSH) into non-reducing glutathione disulfide (GSSG), and the consumption of GSH could significantly protect the local ROS from being reduced, which further augmented the therapeutic outcome of PDT. Via another angle, SMC NPs can produce strong hyperthermia under near-infrared (NIR) light activation, which was highly desirable for efficient photothermal therapy (PTT). Both in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated the intense tumor inhibitory effects as a result of augmented PTT/PDT mediated by SMC NPs. We believe that this study may provide useful insights for employing SF-based nanocomposites for more medical applications in the near future.
