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.

Low molecular weight chitosan based GSH-responsive self-assembled cationic micelle with enhanced anti-tumor effect by combining oxidative damage and chemotherapy. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 268:131736. [PMID: 38653433 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131736] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024]
Abstract
A novel cationic lipoic acid grafted low molecular weight chitosan (LCNE-LA) conjugate was constructed and further self-assembled into GSH-responsive cationic nanocarrier to achieve better antitumor effect by combining encapsulated chemotherapy and oxidative damage induced by ROS. The resultant LCNE-LA cationic micelle exhibited favorable physicochemical properties (low CMC, small size, positively zeta potential and good stability), excellent biosafety and desired redox sensitivity. Next, doxorubicin (Dox) was embedded into hydrophobic core to form stable Dox/LCNE-LA micelle that had superior loading capacity. The GSH-induced release behavior, cellular uptake ability, ROS generation and GSH consumption capacity and in vitro antitumor activity of Dox/LCNE-LA micelle were systematically evaluated. Consequently, Dox/LCNE-LA cationic micelle with positively charged could efficiently enter into cancer cell and redox-sensitive release Dox via disulfide-thiol exchange reaction, which usually expend abundant GSH and disrupt redox homeostasis. Studies further confirmed that Dox/LCNE-LA micelle could increase ROS and reduced GSH content which might cause oxidative damage to tumor cell. Antitumor activity indicated that Dox/LCNE-LA micelle achieved an excellent cancer-killing effect, which might be attributed to combination treatment of Dox and ROS induce oxidative damage. Overall, this research was expected to provide a platform for antitumor treatment by triggering Dox release and promoting ROS generation.

Bovine serum albumin-based and dual-responsive targeted hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles for breast cancer therapy. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 224:113201. [PMID: 36822117 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 02/13/2023]
Abstract
Combination therapy is an effective way to alleviate the shortcoming of monotherapy and enhances therapeutic efficacy. Herein, a distinctive hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticle (HMSNs) encapsulated with folic acid-modified bovine serum albumin (BSA-FA), denoted as HBF, was engineered for tumor targeting and dual-responsive release of loaded-therapeutic agents MD (methylene blue (MB) and doxorubicin (DOX)). The BSA molecule as a ''gatekeeper'' prevents premature drug leakage and actively unloads the cargos through BSA detachment in response to intracellular glutathione (GSH). Folic acid (FA) promotes the specific intracellular delivery of the drug to folate receptor (FR)-expressing cancer cells to improve the efficacy of chemo-photodynamic therapy (PDT). In vitro drug release profiles showed that the drug carrier could achieve pH/redox-responsive drug release from MD@HBF owing to the cleavage of the imine bonds between HMSNs-CHO and BSA-FA and BSA intramolecular disulfide bond. Additionally, a series of biological evaluations, such as cell uptake experiments, toxicity experiments, and in vivo therapeutic assays indicated that MD@HBF possesses the features of accurately targeting FR-expressing 4T1 cells to induce cells apoptosis in vitro, exhibits outstanding tumor cell synergistic killing efficiency of chemo-photodynamic therapy (combination index CI = 0.325), and inhibits tumors growth. These results demonstrated that the strategy of combining HMSNs with stimuli-responsive biodegradable protein molecules could provide a new potential direction toward the ''on-demand'' drug release for precision chemo-photodynamic therapy in cancer treatment.
