Abstract
The combination of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy has emerged as a promising strategy to improve cancer therapeutic efficacy. However, developing a versatile nanoplatform that simultaneously possesses commendable photothermal effect and high drug encapsulation efficiency remains a challenging problem yet to be addressed. Herein, we report a facile supramolecular self-assembly strategy to construct gold nanoparticle clusters (AuNCs) for synergistic photothermal-chemo therapy. By utilizing the functional polysaccharide as a targeted ligand, hyaluronic acid-enriched AuNCs were endowed with targeting CD44 receptor overexpressed on the B16 cancer cells. Importantly, these hyaluronic acid modified AuNCs can shelter therapeutic cargo of doxorubicin (DOX) to aggregate larger nanoparticles via a host-guest interaction with the anchored β-cyclodextrin, as a "nanocluster-bomb" (DOX@AuNCs). The in vitro results revealed that these DOX@AuNCs showed light-triggered drug release behavior and synergistic photothermal-chemo therapy. The improved efficacy of synergistic therapy was further demonstrated by treating a xenografted B16 tumor model in vivo. We envision that our multipronged design of DOX@AuNCs provides a potent theranostic platform for precise cancer therapy and could be further enriched by introducing different imaging probes and therapeutic drugs as appropriate suitable guest molecules.

Electrostatically bound lanreotide peptide - gold nanoparticle conjugates for enhanced uptake in SSTR2-positive cancer cells. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2020; 117:111272. [PMID: 32919636 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2020.111272] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2020] [Revised: 06/30/2020] [Accepted: 07/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Lanreotide peptide (LP) has high affinity to somatostatin receptors like SSTR2 and is commonly used in the treatment of neuro-endocrine tumors. The main objective of this study is to target gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) towards SSTR2-positive cancer cells using lanreotide peptide (LP) as the targeting agent for enhanced tumor uptake and antitumor activity. pH mediated changes in the surface potential of LP and AuNP is used to prepare electrostatically bound AuNP-LP complexes. AuNP-LP complex formation was demonstrated by UV-Visible spectroscopy, surface potential, dynamic light scattering (DLS), small angle X-ray scattering and HR-TEM. Confocal microscopy and flow cytometric studies show that AuNP-LP complex has higher cellular uptake in SSTR2 expressed cancer cells (MCF-7 and AR42J) than in CHO cells. The enhanced cellular uptake of LP coated AuNPs lead to ~1.5 to 2-fold GSH depletion and enhanced ROS generation in MCF-7 cells. The preferential cytotoxicity of the AuNP-LP complex towards MCF-7 and AR42J cells, as revealed by MTT assay, is consistent with the increased cellular uptake. Our studies demonstrate that LP coated AuNP can be used as an effective platform to selectively target SSTR2 positive cancer cells for combination therapy approaches involving gold nanoparticles.

Abstract
The absorption of light by plasmonic nanostructures and their associated temperature increase are exquisitely sensitive to the shape and composition of the structure and to the wavelength of light. Therefore, much effort is put into synthesizing novel nanostructures for optimized interaction with the incident light. The successful synthesis and characterization of high quality and biocompatible plasmonic colloidal nanoparticles has fostered numerous and expanding applications, especially in biomedical contexts, where such particles are highly promising for general drug delivery and for tomorrow's cancer treatment. We review the thermoplasmonic properties of the most commonly used plasmonic nanoparticles, including solid or composite metallic nanoparticles of various dimensions and geometries. Common methods for synthesizing plasmonic particles are presented with the overall goal of providing the reader with a guide for designing or choosing nanostructures with optimal thermoplasmonic properties for a given application. Finally, the biocompatibility and biological tolerance of structures are critically discussed along with novel applications of plasmonic nanoparticles in the life sciences.

Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) play a crucial role in the development of nanomedicine, principally due to their unique photophysical properties and high biocompatibility. The possibility to tune and customize the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) toward near-infrared region by modulating the AuNP shape is one of the reasons for the huge widespread use of AuNPs. The controlled synthesis of no-symmetrical nanoparticles, named anisotropic, is an exciting goal achieved by the scientific community which explains the exponential increase of the number of publications related to the synthesis and use of such type of AuNPs. Even with such steps forward and the AuNP translation in clinic being done, some key issues are still remain and they are related to a reliable and scalable production, a full characterization, and to the development of nanotoxicology studies on the long run. In this review we highlight the very recent advances on the synthesis of the main classes of anisotropic AuNPs (nanorods, nanourchins and nanocages) and their use in the biomedical fields, in terms of diagnosis and therapeutics.
