Abstract
Magnetic scaffolds (MagSs) are magneto-responsive devices obtained by the combination of traditional biomaterials (e.g., polymers, bioceramics, and bioglasses) and magnetic nanoparticles. This work analyzes the literature about MagSs used as drug delivery systems for tissue repair and cancer treatment. These devices can be used as innovative drugs and/or biomolecules delivery systems. Through the application of a static or dynamic stimulus, MagSs can trigger drug release in a controlled and remote way. However, most of MagSs used as drug delivery systems are not optimized and properly modeled, causing a local inhomogeneous distribution of the drug's concentration and burst release. Few physical-mathematical models have been presented to study and analyze different MagSs, with the lack of a systematic vision. In this work, we propose a modeling framework. We modeled the experimental data of drug release from different MagSs, under various magnetic field types, taken from the literature. The data were fitted to a modified Gompertz equation and to the Korsmeyer-Peppas model (KPM). The correlation coefficient (R2) and the root mean square error (RMSE) were the figures of merit used to evaluate the fitting quality. It has been found that the Gompertz model can fit most of the drug delivery cases, with an average RMSE below 0.01 and R2>0.9. This quantitative interpretation of existing experimental data can foster the design and use of MagSs for drug delivery applications.

IEEE OPEN JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING IN MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY 2023; 5:88-98. [PMID: 38487100 PMCID: PMC10939335 DOI: 10.1109/ojemb.2023.3304812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Goal: Deep-seated tumors (DST) can be treated using thermoseeds exposed to a radiofrequency magnetic field for performing local interstitial hyperthermia treatment (HT). Several research efforts were oriented to the manufacturing of novel biocompatible magnetic nanostructured thermo-seeds, called magnetic scaffolds (MagS). Several iron-doped bioceramics or magnetic polymers in various formulations are available. However, the crucial evaluation of their heating potential has been carried out with significantly different, lab specific, variable experimental conditions and protocols often ignoring the several error sources and inaccuracies estimation. Methods: This work comments and provides a perspective analysis of an experimental protocol for the estimation methodology of the specific absorption rate (SAR) of MagS for DST HT. Numerical multiphysics simultions have been performed to outline the theoretical framework. After the in silico analysis, an experimental case is considered and tested. Results: From the simulations, we found that large overestimation in the SAR values can be found, due to the axial misplacement in the radiofrequency coil, while the radial misplacement has a lower impact on the estimated SAR value. Conclusions: The averaging of multiple temperature records is needed to reliably and effectively estimate the SAR of MagS for DST HT.

Abstract
Bone, like most organs, has the ability to heal naturally and can be repaired slowly when it is slightly injured. However, in the case of bone defects caused by diseases or large shocks, surgical intervention and treatment of bone substitutes are needed, and drugs are actively matched to promote osteogenesis or prevent infection. Oral administration or injection for systemic therapy is a common way of administration in clinic, although it is not suitable for the long treatment cycle of bone tissue, and the drugs cannot exert the greatest effect or even produce toxic and side effects. In order to solve this problem, the structure or carrier simulating natural bone tissue is constructed to control the loading or release of the preparation with osteogenic potential, thus accelerating the repair of bone defect. Bioactive materials provide potential advantages for bone tissue regeneration, such as physical support, cell coverage and growth factors. In this review, we discuss the application of bone scaffolds with different structural characteristics made of polymers, ceramics and other composite materials in bone regeneration engineering and drug release, and look forward to its prospect.

Abstract
In this study, first willemite (Zn2SiO4) micro and nano-powders were synthesized by the sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were applied to characterize the crystalline phases and particle size of powders. Then polycaprolactone (PCL) polymer scaffolds containing 20 wt% willemite were successfully fabricated by the DIW 3D printing (direct ink writing) method. The effects of willemite particle size on compressive strength, elastic modulus, degradation rate, and bioactivity of the composite scaffolds were investigated. The results showed that nanoparticle willemite/PCL (NW/PCL) scaffolds had 33.1% and 58.1% higher compressive strength and the elastic modulus of NW/PCL were 1.14 and 2.45 times better compared to micron size willemite/PCL (MW/PCL) and pure PCL scaffolds, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy map (EDS map) results indicated that willemite nanoparticles, unlike microparticles, were smoothly embedded in the scaffold struts. In vitro tests also revealed an improvement in bone-like apatite formation ability and an increase in the degradation rate up to 2.17% by decreasing the willemite particle size to 50 nm. In addition, NW/PCL rendered significant enhancement in cell viability and cell attachment during the culture of MG-63 human osteosarcoma cell line. Nanostructure had also a positive effect on ALP activity and biomineralization in vitro.

Synthesis and investigation on microstructural, mechanical features of mesoporous hardystonite/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite for medical applications. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1073435.

Abstract
The use of hardystonite (Ca2ZnSi2O7, HT)-based composites could be one the main strategies to improve mechanical properties closing to natural bone. However, there are a few reports in this regard. Recent findings indicate that graphene is a promising biocompatible additive in ceramic-based composite. Here, we propose a simple approach for the synthesis of porous nano- and microstructured hardystonite/reduced graphene oxide (HT/RGO) composite using a sol-gel method followed by ultrasonic and hydrothermal processes. Integrating GO to the pure HT increased the bending strength and toughness values about 27.59% and 34.33%, respectively. It also allowed the increment of compressive strength and compressive modulus by about 8.18% and 86%, respectively, and improvement in the fracture toughness about 11.8 times compared to pure HT. The formation of HT/RGO nanocomposites with different RGO weight percentages ranging from 0 to 5.0 has been investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction and the efficient incorporation of GO nanosheets into HT nanocomposite as well as the mesoporous structural properties were also confirmed by Raman, FTIR and BET analyses. The cell viability of HT/RGO composite scaffolds was assayed by methyl thiazole tetrazolium (MTT) test in vitro. In this regard, the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and the proliferation rate of mouse osteoblastic cells (MC3T3-E1) on the HT/1 wt. % RGO composite scaffold enhanced in comparison with the pure HT ceramic. The adhesion of osteoblastic cells on the 1% wt. HT/RGO scaffold was interesting as well. In addition, the effect of 1% wt. HT/RGO extract on the proliferation of osteoblast human G-292 cells was successfully evaluated and remarkable observations were obtained. All together it can be said that the proposed bioceramic hardystonite/reduced graphene oxide composites can be a promising candidate for designing hard tissue implants.

Abstract
The need for bone substitutes is a major challenge as the incidence of serious bone disorders is massively increasing, mainly attributed to modern world problems, such as obesity, aging of the global population, and cancer incidence. Bone cancer represents one of the most significant causes of bone defects, with reserved prognosis regarding the effectiveness of treatments and survival rate. Modern therapies, such as hyperthermia, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and magnetic therapy, seem to bring hope for cancer treatment in general, and bone cancer in particular. Mimicking the composition of bone to create advanced scaffolds, such as bone substitutes, proved to be insufficient for successful bone regeneration, and a special attention should be given to control the changes in the bone tissue micro-environment. The magnetic manipulation by an external field can be a promising technique to control this micro-environment, and to sustain the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts, promoting the expression of some growth factors, and, finally, accelerating new bone formation. By incorporating stimuli responsive nanocarriers in the scaffold's architecture, such as magnetic nanoparticles functionalized with bioactive molecules, their behavior can be rigorously controlled under external magnetic driving, and stimulates the bone tissue formation.

Abstract
Because of the unique physicochemical properties of magnetic iron-based nanoparticles, such as superparamagnetism, high saturation magnetization, and high effective surface area, they have been applied in biomedical fields such as diagnostic imaging, disease treatment, and biochemical separation. Iron-based nanoparticles have been used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to produce clearer and more detailed images, and they have therapeutic applications in magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MFH). In recent years, researchers have used clay minerals, such as ceramic materials with iron-based nanoparticles, to construct nanocomposite materials with enhanced saturation, magnetization, and thermal effects. Owing to their unique structure and large specific surface area, iron-based nanoparticles can be homogenized by adding different proportions of ceramic minerals before and after modification to enhance saturation magnetization. In this review, we assess the potential to improve the magnetic properties of iron-based nanoparticles and in the preparation of multifunctional composite materials through their combination with ceramic materials. We demonstrate the potential of ferromagnetic enhancement and multifunctional composite materials for MRI diagnosis, drug delivery, MFH therapy, and cellular imaging applications.

Abstract
Bone tumor patients often face the problems with cancer cell residues and bone defects after the operation. Therefore, researchers have developed many bifunctional scaffolds with both tumor treatment and bone repair functions. Therapeutic agents are usually combined with bioactive scaffolds to achieve the "bifunctional". However, the synergistic effect of bifunctional scaffolds on tumor therapy and bone repair, as well as the interplay between therapeutic agents and scaffold materials in bifunctional scaffolds, have not been emphasized and discussed. This review proposes a promising design scheme for bifunctional scaffolds: the synergistic effect and interplay between the therapeutic agents and scaffold materials. This review summarizes the latest research progress in bifunctional scaffolds for therapeutic applications and regeneration. In particular, it summarizes the role of tumor therapeutic agents in bone regeneration and the role of scaffold materials in tumor treatment. Finally, a perspective on the future development of bifunctional scaffolds for tumor therapy and bone regeneration is discussed.

Abstract
Smart biomaterials, featuring not only bioactivity, but also dynamic responsiveness to external stimuli, are desired for biomedical applications, such as regenerative medicine, and hold great potential to expand the boundaries of the modern clinical practice. Herein, a magnetically responsive three-dimensional scaffold with sandwich structure is developed by using hydroxyapatite (HA) nanowires and ferrosoferric oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles as building blocks. The magnetic HA/Fe3O4 scaffold is fully inorganic in nature, but shows polymeric hydrogel-like characteristics including a 3D fibrous network that is highly porous (>99.7% free volume), deformable (50% deformation) and elastic, and tunable stiffness. The magnetic HA/Fe3O4 scaffold has been shown to execute multimodal motion upon exposure to an external magnetic field including shape transformation, rolling and somersault. In addition, we have demonstrated that the magnetic scaffold can serve as a smart carrier for remotely controlled, on-demand delivery of compounds including an organic dye and a protein. Finally, the magnetic scaffold has exhibited good biocompatibility, supporting the attachment and proliferation of human mesenchymal stromal cells, thereby showing great potential as smart biomaterials for a variety of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Magnetic scaffolds have been investigated as promising tools for the interstitial hyperthermia treatment of bone cancers, to control local recurrence by enhancing radio- and chemotherapy effectiveness. The potential of magnetic scaffolds motivates the development of production strategies enabling tunability of the resulting magnetic properties. Within this framework, deposition and drop-casting of magnetic nanoparticles on suitable scaffolds offer advantages such as ease of production and high loading, although these approaches are often associated with a non-uniform final spatial distribution of nanoparticles in the biomaterial. The implications and the influences of nanoparticle distribution on the final therapeutic application have not yet been investigated thoroughly. In this work, poly-caprolactone scaffolds are magnetized by loading them with synthetic magnetic nanoparticles through a drop-casting deposition and tuned to obtain different distributions of magnetic nanoparticles in the biomaterial. The physicochemical properties of the magnetic scaffolds are analyzed. The microstructure and the morphological alterations due to the reworked drop-casting process are evaluated and correlated to static magnetic measurements. THz tomography is used as an innovative investigation technique to derive the spatial distribution of nanoparticles. Finally, multiphysics simulations are used to investigate the influence on the loading patterns on the interstitial bone tumor hyperthermia treatment.

Abstract
Biphasic calcium phosphates offer a chemically similar biomaterial to the natural bone, which can significantly accelerate bone formation and reconstruction. Robocasting is a suitable technique to produce porous scaffolds supporting cell viability, proliferation, and differentiation.

Abstract
As the immune system has a significant role in tumor progression, in this paper, we develop a data-driven mathematical model to study the interactions between immune cells and the osteosarcoma microenvironment. Osteosarcoma tumors are divided into three clusters based on their relative abundance of immune cells as estimated from their gene expression profiles. We then analyze the tumor progression and effects of the immune system on cancer growth in each cluster. Cluster 3, which had approximately the same number of naive and M2 macrophages, had the slowest tumor growth, and cluster 2, with the highest population of naive macrophages, had the highest cancer population at the steady states. We also found that the fastest growth of cancer occurred when the anti-tumor immune cells and cytokines, including dendritic cells, helper T cells, cytotoxic cells, and IFN-γ, switched from increasing to decreasing, while the dynamics of regulatory T cells switched from decreasing to increasing. Importantly, the most impactful immune parameters on the number of cancer and total cells were the activation and decay rates of the macrophages and regulatory T cells for all clusters. This work presents the first osteosarcoma progression model, which can be later extended to investigate the effectiveness of various osteosarcoma treatments.

Asiaticoside and polylysine-releasing collagen complex for effectively reducing initial inflammatory response using inflamed induced in vitro model. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 121:111837. [PMID: 33579475 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2020.111837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2020] [Revised: 12/17/2020] [Accepted: 12/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Inflammation is a significant clinical problem that can arise from full-thickness wounds or burn injuries or microbial disease. Although topical wound healing substances could promote rapid wound healing by preventing or reducing the consequences of inflammation, there still remains a need for the development of novel substances that can effectively reduce infection and inflammation in initial wound healing phase. In this study, collagen was combined with asiaticoside (AS) and ε-poly-l-lysine (εPLL). This complex was then applied to in vitro models of infection and inflammation. Collagen-AS coatings inhibited the initial inflammatory response to LPS through a sustained release of AS, and a bilayer coating-εPLL showed a notable antimicrobial effect using microbial infection test. In this study, we determined whether asiaticoside and εPLL have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects through different mechanisms. Collectively, the collagen-AS/εPLL complex indicated great therapeutic potentials for accelerate wound healing and the complex may be considered as a artificial scaffold substitute product to full-thickness wound healing.

Abstract
The human amniotic membrane (HAM) has been viewed as a potential regenerative material for a wide variety of injured tissues because of its collagen-rich content. High degradability of HAM limits its wide practical application in bone tissue engineering. In this study, the natural matrix of the decellularized amniotic membrane was developed by the double diffusion method. The results confirmed a reduction of the amniotic membrane's degradability because of the deposition of calcium and phosphate ions during the double diffusion process. Real-time PCR results showed a high expression of osteogenesis-related genes from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) cultured on the surface of the developed mineralized amniotic membrane (MAM). Further in vivo experiments were conducted using an MAM preseeded with ADMSCs and a critical-size rat calvarial defect model. Histopathological results confirmed that the MAM + cell sample has excellent potential in bone regeneration.

Bio-inspired polymeric iron-doped hydroxyapatite microspheres as a tunable carrier of rhBMP-2. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2020; 119:111410.

Abstract
Hybrid superparamagnetic microspheres with bone-like composition, previously developed by a bio-inspired assembling/mineralization process, are evaluated for their ability to uptake and deliver recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) in therapeutically-relevant doses along with prolonged release profiles. The comparison with hybrid non-magnetic and with non-mineralized microspheres highlights the role of nanocrystalline, nanosize mineral phases when they exhibit surface charged groups enabling the chemical linking with the growth factor and thus moderating the release kinetics. All the microspheres show excellent osteogenic ability with human mesenchymal stem cells whereas the hybrid mineralized ones show a slow and sustained release of rhBMP-2 along 14 days of soaking into cell culture medium with substantially bioactive effect, as reported by assay with C2C12 BRE-Luc cell line. It is also shown that the release extent can be modulated by the application of pulsed electromagnetic field, thus showing the potential of remote controlling the bioactivity of the new micro-devices which is promising for future application of hybrid biomimetic microspheres in precisely designed and personalized therapies.

Abstract
Iron is one of the trace elements required by human body, and its deficiency can lead to abnormal bone metabolism. In this study, the effect of iron ions on the properties of tricalcium silicate bone cement (Fe/C3Ss) was investigated. It effectively solved the problems of high pH value and low biological activity of calcium silicate bone cement. The mechanical properties, in vitro mineralization ability and biocompatibility of the materials were systematically characterized. The results indicate that tricalcium silicate bone cement containing 5 mol% iron displayed good self-setting ability, mechanical properties and biodegradation performance in vitro. Compared with pure calcium silicate bone cement (C3Ss), Fe/C3Ss showed lower pH value (8.80) and higher porosity (45%), which was suitable for subsequent cell growth. Immersion test in vitro also confirmed its good ability to induce hydroxyapatite formation. Furthermore, cell culture experiments performed with Fe/C3Ss ion extracts clearly stated that the material had excellent cell proliferation abilities compared to C3Ss and low toxicity. The findings reveal that iron-doped tricalcium silicate bone cement is a promising bioactive material in bone repair applications.

Abstract
In the current research, a novel poly(ε-caprolactone) nanofibrous composite scaffold including CZF-NPs1 (cobalt‑zinc ferrite nanoparticles) was investigated to study the physical, mechanical and biological properties of new magnetic nanofibrous materials and then to evaluate the effect of applied electromagnetic field on biological properties of these scaffolds. It was observed that the incorporation of CZF-NPs up to 3 wt.% leads to decrease in nanofibers' diameter to 466 nm. By raising the content of CZF-NPs, hydrophilicity and biodegradation of magnetic nanofibrous scaffolds improved significantly. In addition, the mechanical properties of nanofibers such as stress at break point was interestingly increased in the sample with 3 wt.% of CZF-NPs. The results of biocompatibility, cell adhesion and cell staining assays with L929 cells are much more improved in nanofibers embedded with CZF-NPs in the presence of external electromagnetic field (EMF). According to this study, magnetic nanofibrous scaffolds composed of PCL/CZF-NPs could be considered as a promising candidate to regenerate damaged tissues.

Abstract
In order to improve the anticancer therapeutic efficacy and postoperative recovery efficacy, the novel anticancer therapeutic system should have the ability to promote angiogenesis after anticancer therapy besides the excellent anticancer therapeutic efficacy. We present herein a magnetic targeting multifunctional anticancer therapeutic system based on cobalt nanowires (CoNWs) for anticancer therapy and angiogenesis. Magnetic characterization shows that the CoNWs can be concentrated in desired locations under the external magnetic field, which is favorable for anticancer target therapy. Besides, drug loading/release characterization reveals that the CoNWs interact with doxorubicin (DOX) by electrostatic interaction, and accordingly form a composite which can release DOX with temperature increase under near-infrared light (NIR) treatment. And anticancer test reveals that the nanowires loaded with the DOX (CoNWs-DOX) can produce an effective chemo-photothermal synergistic therapeutic effect against murine breast cancer cell lines (4T1) and human osteosarcoma cell lines (MG63) under NIR treatment. Furthermore, angiogenesis assessment reveals that the released cobalt ion from the nanowires can significantly enhance the angiogenesis efficacy after cancer treatment. These results suggest that the constructed anticancer therapeutic system provides a promising multifunctional platform for cancer treatment and postoperative recovery.

Abstract
One of the significant challenges in bone tissue engineering is the fabrication of highly porous scaffolds with interconnected pores and appropriate mechanical properties. Artificial scaffolds which used in the field of medicine are usually made of single phase of polymer or ceramic. However, composition of these materials can produce the scaffolds with improve mechanical and biological properties.The aim of this study is to synthesize three-dimensional hardystonite-diopside (HT-Dio) porous scaffolds modified by polycaporolacton fumarate coating for low-load-bearing bone tissue engineering applications. The results showed that hardystonite scaffolds with 15 wt. % diopside and 6 w/v % polymer polycaporolacton fumarate (PCLF) had a significant bioactivity. The cell culture and cell attachment assay results revealed the well spreading of BMS cells on the surface of modified scaffolds which indicates the high biocompatibility of this scaffold. The modified scaffolds had a mean pore size, porosity, compressive strength, modules and toughness of 293.47 ± 5.51 μm, 74% ± 1.01, 3.37 ± 0.6 MPa, 151 ± 1.1 MPa and 31.3 ± 0.32 kJ/m3, respectively, which are in the appropriate range for spongy bone and hence can be a good candidate for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Removing malignant bone tumors results in critical size bone defects. These voids in bones should be filled by a proper scaffold that not only can support cell ingrowth and bone regeneration but also it has to show a desirable ability in long-term releasing anticancer drugs in order to prevent the growth of remaining cancer cells. Applying this scaffold can significantly improve the outcome of bone tumors treatment. In this study, a novel way is proposed for immobilization of doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded polycaproloactone (PCL) microparticles on the hardystonite (HT) scaffold surfaces. High interconnected porous HT scaffolds with immobilized DOX-encapsulated PCL microparticles can be successfully fabricated by modified water/oil/water method. In the present work, we verify a slow release of DOX over 30 days from PCL microparticles inside HT scaffold. Our developed HT scaffolds with the long-term release of DOX are more effective in reduction of Saos-2 cancer cells viability and induce higher degrees of apoptosis compared to DOX dip coated HT scaffolds. Encapsulating DOX into PCL microparticles significantly improves the anti-tumor activity of DOX by regulating the expression of apoptosis-related genes. Our results suggest that by immobilization of polymeric vehicles on the ceramic scaffold for controlled drug release, we can achieve high efficiency in apoptosis of cancer cells.

Abstract
Hyperthermia-increasing temperature of cancerous tissue for a short period of time-is considered as an effective treatment for various cancer types such as malignant bone tumors. Superparamagnetic and ferromagnetic particles have been studied for their hyperthermic properties in treating various types of cancers. The activation of magnetic nanoparticles by an alternating magnetic field is currently being explored as a technique for targeted therapeutic heating of different tumors and is being studied as an adjuvant to conventional chemotherapy and radiation therapy. In the case of bone cancers, to increase the efficiency of treatment in the hyperthermia therapy, employed materials should support bone regeneration as well. Magnetite is one of the most attractive magnetic nanoceramics used in hyperthermia application. However, biocompatibility and bioactivity of this material have raised questions. There is a high demand for extremely efficient hyperthermia materials which are equally biocompatible to non-tumor cells and tissues. We report the development of a biocompatible and bioactive material with desirable magnetic properties that show excellent hyperthermia properties and can be used for destruction of the cancerous tissue in addition to supporting tissue regeneration for treatment of bone tumors. In the current study, iron (Fe3+)-containing HT nanostructured material was prepared, and its biocompatibility, bioactivity, and hyperthermia abilities were studied. The developed materials showed effective hyperthermic properties with increased biocompatibility as compared to magnetite.

Abstract
Background In order to achieve drug targeting and controlled release, we have successfully developed a novel drug release system DOX/AuNCs-PM-HA with gold nanocages (AuNCs) as photothermal cores, thermally responsive copolymer P(NIPAM-co-Am) (PM) as the near-infrared (NIR) stimuli gatekeeper and hyaluronic acid as a targeting ligand as well as a capping agent. Methods Cell uptake and cell viability were investigated. In vivo photoacoustic tomography imaging in H22 tumor bearing mice was analyzed for the tumor targeting effect of the nanocomplexes. Antitumor efficacy and the tissue distribution in vivo were investigated. Results In vitro results demonstrated that the DOX/AuNCs-PM-HA had significant anticancer activity against SMMC-7721 cells under NIR irradiation. Furthermore, in vivo photoacoustic tomography imaging of the nanocomplexes in H22 tumor bearing mice could indicate effective tumor targeting. Our studies on antitumor efficacy and the tissue distribution in vivo showed that many DOX/AuNCs-PM-HA nanocomplexes could efficiently accumulate at the tumor site so that they could inhibit the tumor growth effectively with limited side effects. The in vitro and in vivo results confirmed that the tumor-targeting and controlled-release drug system DOX/AuNCs-PM-HA with the combination of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy showed strong anti-tumor effect and would have great potential for future cancer therapy. Conclusion This tumor targeting DOX/AuNCs-PM-HA nanocomplex responded not only to the external stimuli of NIR, but also the internal stimuli of hyaluronidase, providing the potential for pinpointed and multi-stimuli responsive intracellular drug release.
