Gold/cobalt ferrite nanocomposite as a potential agent for photothermal therapy. JOURNAL OF BIOPHOTONICS 2024; 17:e202300475. [PMID: 38866730 DOI: 10.1002/jbio.202300475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
The study encompasses an investigation of optical, photothermal and biocompatibility properties of a composite consisting of golden cores surrounded by superparamagnetic CoFe2O4 nanoparticles. Accompanied with the experiment, the computational modeling reveals that each adjusted magnetic nanoparticle redshifts the plasmon resonance frequency in gold and nonlinearly increases the extinction cross-section at ~800 nm. The concentration dependent photothermal study demonstrates a temperature increase of 8.2 K and the photothermal conversion efficiency of 51% for the 100 μg/mL aqueous solution of the composite nanoparticles, when subjected to a laser power of 0.5 W at 815 nm. During an in vitro photothermal therapy, a portion of the composite nanoparticles, initially seeded at this concentration, remained associated with the cells after washing. These retained nanoparticles effectively heated the cell culture medium, resulting in a 22% reduction in cell viability after 15 min of the treatment. The composite features a potential in multimodal magneto-plasmonic therapies.

Abstract
This review focuses on the versatile applications of near-infrared (NIR)-responsive smart carriers in biomedical applications, particularly drug delivery and photothermal chemotherapy. These carriers demonstrate multi-responsive theranostics capabilities, including pH-dependent drug release, targeted delivery of chemotherapeutics, heat-mediated drug release, and photothermal tumor damage. Biological samples are transparent to NIR light with a suitable wavelength, and therefore, NIR light is advantageous for deep-tissue penetration. It also generates sufficient heat in tissue samples, which is beneficial for on-demand NIR-responsive drug delivery in vivo systems. The development of biocompatible materials with sufficient NIR light absorption properties and drug-carrying functionality has shown tremendous growth in the last five years. Thus, this review offers insights into the current research development of NIR-responsive materials with therapeutic potential and prospects aimed at overcoming challenges to improve the therapeutic efficacy and safety in the dynamic field of NIR-responsive drug delivery.

BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 144:213209. [PMID: 36473350 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2022.213209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
A drug delivery system (DDS) based on gold-capped mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) is fabricated for loading NOSH-aspirin, a nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) dual-donating cytotoxic molecule. The liver targeting and tumor microenvironment responsive properties of the nanosystem enable, for the first time, the concurrent delivery of NO and H2S from a DDS into hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Combined gas-radiotherapy (GT-RT) from drug-loaded DDS (NOSH@MSN-Au-Gal) and X-ray irradiation shows highly synergistic anti-cancer activity against both normoxic and hypoxic HCC cells. Further studies revealed that the combined GT-RT not only retains the well-known anticancer mechanism of NO, H2S, and X-ray individually, but also alleviates HCC hypoxia via NO- and H2S- involved unique pathways. In mice, the GT-RT greatly slows the growth of both subcutaneous and orthotopic HCC tumors and shows high biocompatibility. The current work is expected to promote the clinical application of combined GT-RT as an effective cancer treatment.

Abstract
Killing tumor cells efficiently with photothermal therapy remains a huge challenge. In this study, we successfully prepared a novel polymer with photothermal conversion capability via a condensation reaction, and then subjected it to Polyethylene glycol (PEG) modification and ultrasonic nanocrystalline treatment to make it suitable forin vivophotothermal therapy applications. The conjugated polymer demonstrated good biocompatibility and photothermal conversion ability and was shown in cell experiments to be effective in killing tumor cells after laser irradiation. In addition, the conjugated polymer-based photothermal therapy, guided by photoacoustic real-time imaging and mediated by laser irradiation, of a tumor-bearing mouse model could effectively inhibit the growth of tumor tissue and demonstrated goodin vivobiosafety. Thus, photothermal therapy based on the conjugated polymer synthesized in this study provides a new idea and strategy for the treatment of lung cancer.

Abstract
The combination of phototherapy and chemotherapy (chemo−photo combination therapy) is an excellent attempt for tumor treatment. The key requirement of this technology is the high drug-loading nanomedicines, which can load either chemotherapy drugs or phototherapy agents at the same nanomedicines and simultaneously deliver them to tumors, and play a multimode therapeutic role for tumor treatment. These nanomedicines have high drug-loading efficiency (>30%) and good tumor combination therapeutic effect with important clinical application potential. Although there are many reports of high drug-loading nanomedicines for tumor therapy at present, systematic analyses on those nanomedicines remain lacking and a comprehensive review is urgently needed. In this review, we systematically analyze the current status of developed high drug-loading nanomedicines for tumor chemo−photo combination therapy and summarize their types, methods, drug-loading properties, in vitro and in vivo applications. The shortcomings of the existing high drug-loading nanomedicines for tumor chemo−photo combination therapy and the possible prospective development direction are also discussed. We hope to attract more attention for researchers in different academic fields, provide new insights into the research of tumor therapy and drug delivery system and develop these nanomedicines as the useful tool for tumor chemo−photo combination therapy in the future.

Inhibition of Metastatic Hepatocarcinoma by Combined Chemotherapy with Silencing VEGF/VEGFR2 Genes through a GalNAc-Modified Integrated Therapeutic System. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27072082.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly malignant tumor related to high mortality and is still lacking a satisfactory cure. Tumor metastasis is currently a major challenge of cancer treatment, which is highly related to angiogenesis. The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGFR signaling pathway is thus becoming an attractive therapeutic target. Moreover, chemotherapy combined with gene therapy shows great synergistic potential in cancer treatment with the promise of nanomaterials. In this work, a formulation containing 5-FU and siRNA against the VEGF/VEGFR signaling pathway into N-acetyl-galactosamine (GalNAc)-modified nanocarriers is established. The targeting ability, biocompatibility and pH-responsive degradation capacity ensure the efficient transport of therapeutics by the formulation of 5-FU/siRNA@GalNAc-pDMA to HCC cells. The nano-construct integrated with gene/chemotherapy exhibits significant anti-metastatic HCC activity against C5WN1 liver cancer cells with tumorigenicity and pulmonary metastasis in the C5WN1-induced tumor-bearing mouse model with a tumor inhibition rate of 96%, which is promising for future metastatic HCC treatment.

Abstract
The lack of cancer cell specificity and the occurrence of multidrug resistance (MDR) are two major obstacles in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). To tackle these challenges, a novel nanoparticle (NP)-based drug delivery system (DDS) with a core/shell structure consisted of d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS)-galactose (Gal)/polydopamine (PDA) is fabricated. The NP is loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) and a nitric oxide (NO) donor N,N'-di-sec-butyl-N,N'-dinitroso-1,4-phenylenediamine (BNN) sensitive to heat to afford NO-DOX@PDA-TPGS-Gal. The unique binding of Gal to asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) and the pH-sensitive degradation of NP ensure the targeted transportation of NP into liver cells and the release of DOX in HCC cells. The near-infrared (NIR) light further facilitates DOX release and initiates NO generation from BNN due to the photothermal property of PDA. In addition to the cytotoxicity contributed by DOX, NO, and heat, TPGS and NO act as MDR reversal agents to inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-related efflux of DOX by HepG2/ADR cells. The combined chemo-photothermal therapy (chemo-PTT) by NO-DOX@PDA-TPGS-Gal thus shows potent anti-cancer activity against drug-resistant HCC cells in vitro and in vivo and significantly prolongs the life span of drug-resistant tumor-bearing mice. The present work provides a useful strategy for highly targeted and MDR reversal treatment of HCC.
