Mild hyperthermia enhanced synergistic uric acid degradation and multiple ROS elimination for an effective acute gout therapy. J Nanobiotechnology 2024; 22:275. [PMID: 38778401 PMCID: PMC11112921 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02539-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute gouty is caused by the excessive accumulation of Monosodium Urate (MSU) crystals within various parts of the body, which leads to a deterioration of the local microenvironment. This degradation is marked by elevated levels of uric acid (UA), increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, hypoxic conditions, an upsurge in pro-inflammatory mediators, and mitochondrial dysfunction. RESULTS In this study, we developed a multifunctional nanoparticle of polydopamine-platinum (PDA@Pt) to combat acute gout by leveraging mild hyperthermia to synergistically enhance UA degradation and anti-inflammatory effect. Herein, PDA acts as a foundational template that facilitates the growth of a Pt shell on the surface of its nanospheres, leading to the formation of the PDA@Pt nanomedicine. Within this therapeutic agent, the Pt nanoparticle catalyzes the decomposition of UA and actively breaks down endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce O2, which helps to alleviate hypoxic conditions. Concurrently, the PDA component possesses exceptional capacity for ROS scavenging. Most significantly, Both PDA and Pt shell exhibit absorption in the Near-Infrared-II (NIR-II) region, which not only endow PDA@Pt with superior photothermal conversion efficiency for effective photothermal therapy (PTT) but also substantially enhances the nanomedicine's capacity for UA degradation, O2 production and ROS scavenging enzymatic activities. This photothermally-enhanced approach effectively facilitates the repair of mitochondrial damage and downregulates the NF-κB signaling pathway to inhibit the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. CONCLUSIONS The multifunctional nanomedicine PDA@Pt exhibits exceptional efficacy in UA reduction and anti-inflammatory effects, presenting a promising potential therapeutic strategy for the management of acute gout.

Abstract
Synergistic combination therapy approach offers lots of options for delivery of materials with anticancer properties, which is a very promising strategy to treat a variety of malignant lesions with enhanced therapeutic efficacy. The current study involves a detailed investigation of combination ionic nanomedicines where a chemotherapeutic drug is coupled with a photothermal agent to attain dual mechanisms (chemotherapy (chemo) and photothermal therapy (PTT)) to improve the drug's efficacy. An FDA-approved Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX·HCl) is electrostatically attached with a near-infrared cyanine dye (ICG, IR783, and IR820), which serves as a PTT drug using ionic liquid chemistry to develop three ionic material (IM)-based chemo-PTT drugs. Carrier-free ionic nanomedicines (INMs) are derived from ionic materials (IMs). The photophysical properties of the developed combination IMs and their INMs were studied in depth. The phototherapeutic efficiency of the combination drugs was evaluated by measuring the photothermal conversion efficiency and singlet-oxygen quantum yield. The improved photophysical properties of the combination nanomedicines in comparison to their parent compounds significantly enhanced INMs' photothermal efficiency. Cellular uptake, dark and light toxicity studies, and cell death mechanisms of the chemo-PTT nanoparticles were also studied in vitro. The combination INMs exhibited enhanced cytotoxicity compared to their respective parent compounds. Moreover, the apoptosis cell death mechanism was almost doubled for combination nanomedicine than the free DOX, which is attributed to enhanced cellular uptake. Examination of the combination index and improved in vitro cytotoxicity results revealed a great synergy between chemo and PTT drugs in the developed combination nanomedicines.

Abstract
Phototherapies induced by photoactive nanomaterials have inspired and accentuated the importance of nanomedicine in cancer therapy in recent years. During these light-activated cancer therapies, a nanoagent can produce heat and cytotoxic reactive oxygen species by absorption of light energy for photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, PTT is limited by the self-protective nature of cells, with upregulated production of heat shock proteins (HSP) under mild hyperthermia, which also influences PDT. To reduce HSP production in cancer cells and to enhance PTT/PDT, small HSP inhibitors that can competitively bind at the ATP-binding site of an HSP could be employed. Alternatively, reducing intracellular glucose concentration can also decrease ATP production from the metabolic pathways and downregulate HSP production from glucose deprivation. Other than reversing the thermal resistance of cancer cells for mild-temperature PTT, an HSP inhibitor can also be integrated into functionalized nanomaterials to alleviate tumor hypoxia and enhance the efficacy of PDT. Furthermore, the co-delivery of a small-molecule drug for direct HSP inhibition and a chemotherapeutic drug can integrate enhanced PTT/PDT with chemotherapy (CT). On the other hand, delivering a glucose-deprivation agent like glucose oxidase (GOx) can indirectly inhibit HSP and boost the efficacy of PTT/PDT while combining these therapies with cancer starvation therapy (ST). In this review, we intend to discuss different nanomaterial-based approaches that can inhibit HSP production via ATP regulation and their uses in PTT/PDT and cancer combination therapy such as CT and ST.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has attracted much attention in recent years for its favorable therapeutic efficacy in cancer therapy. However, PDT alone is insufficient to improve the therapeutic efficiency mainly due to the limited penetration depth of light, the insufficient O2 supply in the hypoxic microenvironment, and the high level of reducing substances in cancer cells. To overcome these limitations, a multifunctional MnO2 nanoparticle was constructed with honeycomb MnO2 which was loaded with the photosensitizer Ce6 and modified with polydopamine on its surface (HMnO2/C&P) to achieve efficient PDT/mild photothermal treatment (PTT) combination therapy. HMnO2/C&P had high drug loading contents (11.2% Ce6) and can be responsive to the tumor microenvironment (TME), supply O2 to alleviate the hypoxic microenvironment, and clear GSH to reduce the consumption of ROS, thus enhancing the PDT effect. The introduction of PDA can improve the stability of HMnO2/C&P, and further give the ability of PTT to act as nanomedicine. The results of in vitro and in vivo experiments show that HMnO2/C&P based PDT/mild PTT combination therapy has an excellent inhibitory effect on tumor growth. Meanwhile, HMnO2/C&P can act as a fluorescence imaging reagent and a TME triggerable magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent, thus having excellent multimodal self-tracking abilities. Collectively, this study provides a new perspective on the design of multifunctional theranostic nanomedicine to maximize the efficacy of cancer phototherapy.

Abstract
With the booming development of nanomedicine, mild photothermal therapy (mPTT, 42-45°C) has exhibited promising potential in tumor therapy. Compared with traditional PTT (>50°C), mPTT has less side effects and better biological effects conducive to tumor treatment, such as loosening the dense structure in tumor tissues, enhancing blood perfusion, and improving the immunosuppressive microenvironment. However, such a relatively low temperature cannot allow mPTT to completely eradicate tumors, and therefore, substantial efforts have been conducted to optimize the application of mPTT in tumor therapy. This review extensively summarizes the latest advances of mPTT, including two sections: (1) taking mPTT as a leading role to maximize its effect by blocking the cell defense mechanisms, and (2) regarding mPTT as a supporting role to assist other therapies to achieve synergistic antitumor curative effect. Meanwhile, the special characteristics and imaging capabilities of nanoplatforms applied in various therapies are discussed. At last, this paper puts forward the bottlenecks and challenges in the current research path of mPTT, and possible solutions and research directions in future are proposed correspondingly.

Abstract
As an appealing biomimetic strategy for various medical applications, cell membrane coating lacks sensitive on-demand breaking capability. Herein, we incorporated thermosensitive lipid (TSL) membrane into red blood cell (RBC) and MCF-7 cancer cell (MC) hybrid membrane ([RBC-MC]M) vesicles. The [RBC-MC-TSL]M was coated onto doxorubicin (Dox)-loaded hollow gold nanoparticles to enhance chemo-/photothermal combined tumor therapy at a mild hyperthermia temperature (≤49 °C). Double-layer coating with TSL and [RBC-MC-TSL]M as the inner and outer layer, respectively, presented better antileakage and higher NIR-responsivity than single-layer coating. The Dox release ratio upon NIR laser irradiation (≤49 °C) was 74.6%, much higher than that (33.5%) without NIR laser. The nanodrug can be efficiently and specifically taken up by MCF-7 cells. In addition, the nanodrug exhibited excellent tumor-targeting property, with 4.08- and 1.12-times Dox accumulation in MCF-7 tumors compared to free Dox and [RBC-MC]M-coated counterpart, respectively. Most importantly, TSL incorporation significantly enhanced NIR-responsive antitumor efficiency, with tumor growth inhibition ratio increased from 35.1% to 48.6% after a single dose administration. Besides, the nanodrug exhibited very good biocompatibility. Camouflaging nanoparticles with the thermosensitive biomimetic hybrid membrane provides a painless and promisingly clinical-applicable approach for effective chemo-/photothermal combined mild-hyperthermia tumor therapy.

Abstract
Glioma is characterized by high mortality and low postoperative survival. Despite the availability of various therapeutic approaches and molecular typing, the treatment failure rate and the recurrence rate of glioma remain high. Given the limitations of existing therapeutic tools, nanotechnology has emerged as an alternative treatment option. Nanoparticles, such as polydopamine (PDA)-based nanoparticles, are embodied with reliable biodegradability, efficient drug loading rate, relatively low toxicity, considerable biocompatibility, excellent adhesion properties, precisely targeted delivery, and strong photothermal conversion properties. Therefore, they can further enhance the therapeutic effects in patients with glioma. Moreover, polydopamine contains pyrocatechol, amino and carboxyl groups, active double bonds, catechol, and other reactive groups that can react with biofunctional molecules containing amino, aldehyde, or sulfhydryl groups (main including, self-polymerization, non-covalent self-assembly, π-π stacking, electrostatic attraction interaction, chelation, coating and covalent co-assembly), which form a reversible dynamic covalent Schiff base bond that is extremely sensitive to pH values. Meanwhile, PDA has excellent adhesion capability that can be further functionally modified. Consequently, the aim of this review is to summarize the application of PDA-based NPs in glioma and to acquire insight into the therapeutic effect of the drug-loaded PDA-based nanocarriers (PDA NPs). A wealthy understanding and argument of these sides is anticipated to afford a better approach to develop more reasonable and valid PDA-based cancer nano-drug delivery systems. Finally, we discuss the expectation for the prospective application of PDA in this sphere and some individual viewpoints.

Abstract
ACGs (annonaceous acetogenins) possess excellent antitumor activity, but their serious accompanying toxicity has prevented their application in the clinic. To address this problem, we therefore constructed an intratumoral drug delivery system integrating chemotherapy and photothermal therapy. The PEGylation of polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA-PEG NPs) possessed an excellent biocompatibility with size of 70.96 ± 2.55 nm, thus can be used as good photothermal materials in the body. Moreover, PDA-PEG NPs can kill half of cancer cells under NIR (near-infrared) laser irradiation, and the survival rate of 4T1 cells is only 1% when ACG NPs and PDA-PEG NPs are combined. In vivo distribution studies showed that the 0.1 mg/kg ACGs NPs + PDA-PEG NPs + NIR group had the highest tumor inhibition rate, which was significantly superior to that of the 0.1 mg/kg ACGs NPs intratumoral injection group (82.65% vs. 59.08%). Altogether, the combination of PDA-PEG NPs + NIR with chemotherapy drugs may provide a feasible and effective strategy for the treatment of superficial tumors.

Abstract
A series of glutathione (GSH)-responsive polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared using a disulfide-linked dopamine dimer as starting material, of which the size could be tuned systematically by adjusting the amount of ammonia solution used. Molecules of a phthalocyanine (Pc)-based photosensitiser and an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeting peptide were then sequentially immobilised on the surface of the NPs through coupling with the surface functionalities of PDA. The immobilised Pc molecules in the resulting nanosystem were photodynamically inactive due to the strong self-quenching effect and the quenching by the PDA core. Upon exposure to GSH in phosphate-buffered saline or EGFR-positive cancer cells, namely A549 and A431 cells, the NPs were disassembled through cleavage of the disulfide linkages to release the Pc molecules, thereby restoring their fluorescence emission and singlet oxygen generation. The NPs with the smallest size (ca. 200 nm in diameter) exhibited the highest cellular uptake and high photocytotoxicity with IC50 values as low as 0.05 μM based on Pc. These NPs could also accumulate and be activated in the tumour of A431 tumour-bearing nude mice, lighting up the tumour with fluorescence over a period of 72 h and completely eradicating the tumour through laser irradiation for 10 min (675 nm, 20 J cm-2). The results suggest that these biodegradable and versatile PDA-based NPs can serve as a promising nanoplatform for fabrication of advanced photosensitisers for targeted photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
The booming photothermal therapy (PTT) has achieved great progress in non-invasive oncotherapy, and paves a novel way for clinical oncotherapy. Of note, mild temperature PTT (mPTT) of 42–45 °C could avoid treatment bottleneck of the traditional PTT, including nonspecific injury to normal tissues, vasculature and host antitumor immunity. However, cancer cells can resist mPTT via heat shock response and autophagy, thus leading to insufficient mPTT monotherapy to ablate tumor. To overcome the deficient antitumor efficacy caused by thermo-resistance of cancer cells and mono mPTT, synergistic therapies towards cancer cells have been conducted with mPTT. This review summarizes the recent advances in nanomedicine-potentiated mPTT for cancer treatment, including strategies for enhanced single-mode mPTT and mPTT plus synergistic therapies. Moreover, challenges and prospects for clinical translation of nanomedicine-potentiated mPTT are discussed.

Abstract
Recently, hypothermal photothermal therapy (HPTT) seemed essential for the future clinical transformation of cancer optical therapies. However, at a lower working temperature, heat shock proteins (HSPs) seriously affect the anti-tumor effect of HPTT. This work reports a reasonable design of a dual-responsive nanoplatform for the synergistic treatment of chemotherapy and HPTT. We adopted a one-step method to wrap indocyanine green (ICG) into imidazole skeleton-8 (ZIF-8) and further loaded it with the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX). Furthermore, we introduced Hsp-70 siRNA to block the affection of HSPs at an upstream node, thereby avoiding the side effects of traditional heat shock protein inhibitors. The prepared ZIF-8@ICG@DOX@siRNA nanoparticles (ZID-Si NPs) could significantly improve the stability of siRNA to effectively down-regulate the expression of HSP70 protein during the photothermal therapy, thus realizing the pH-controlled and NIR-triggered release of the chemotherapeutical drug DOX. Moreover, tumors were also imaged accurately by ICG wrapped in ZID-Si nanoparticles. After the evaluation of the in vitro and in vivo photothermal effect as well as the anti-tumor activity, we found that the added Hsp-70 siRNA enhanced the synergistic anti-cancer activity of HPTT and chemotherapy. In summary, this work holds great potential in cancer treatment, and suggests better efficacy of synergistic chemo/HPTT than the single-agent therapy.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a minimally invasive procedure for treating cancer. The two significant prerequisites of PTT are the photothermal therapeutic agent (PTA) and near-infrared radiation (NIR). The PTA absorbs NIR, causing hyperthermia in the malignant cells. This increased temperature at the tumor microenvironment finally results in tumor cell damage. Nanoparticles play a crucial role in PTT, aiding in the passive and active targeting of the PTA to the tumor microenvironment. Through enhanced permeation and retention effect and surface-engineering, specific targeting could be achieved. This novel delivery tool provides the advantages of changing the shape, size, and surface attributes of the carriers containing PTAs, which might facilitate tumor regression significantly. Further, inclusion of surface engineering of nanoparticles is facilitated through ligating ligands specific to overexpressed receptors on the cancer cell surface. Thus, transforming nanoparticles grants the ability to combine different treatment strategies with PTT to enhance cancer treatment. This review emphasizes properties of PTAs, conjugated biomolecules of PTAs, and the combinatorial techniques for a better therapeutic effect of PTT using the nanoparticle platform.

Abstract
Over the past decades, near infrared light (NIR)-sensitive photothermal agents (PTAs) that can efficiently absorb light and generate heat have been investigated worldwide for cancer photothermal therapy (PTT) and the combination treatments, which have some peculiar advantages including spatiotemporal targeting, the ability-to-reverse multidrug resistance, the immunity-stimulating function, and the synergistic effect in combination treatments. In this review, we first focus on emerging melanin-like polymers and coordination polyphenol polymer-based PTAs that hold transition potential because of their facile synthesis and good biocompatibility/biodegradability. We briefly introduce polymeric PTAs for emerging NIR-II (1000-1700 nm) PTT in deep tumors to overcome shallow penetration depth and threshold irradiation intensity of NIR-I (700-900 nm). Then we discuss polymeric PTAs for combination PTT treatments with photodynamic therapy (PDT), ferroptosis therapy (ferrotherapy), and immunotherapy, which are intensively studied for achieving anticancer synergistic effects. Finally, we discuss those polymeric PTAs for reversing cancer multidrug resistance and for mild/low-temperature PTT (43 °C ≤ T < 50 °C) in contrast to conventional high-temperature PTT (>50 °C). The polymeric PTA-based PTT and the combination treatments are still being developed in the early stage and need much more effort before potential clinical transitions and applications.

Abstract
Cancer is a global disease of great importance, and the need for novel cytotoxic drugs is still eminent. A series of spermine amides of several selected triterpene acids (betulonic, heterobetulonic, oleanolic, ursolic and platanic acid) have been synthesized to search for new cytotoxic and antimicrobial agents. The compounds have also been subjected to the investigation of their physico-chemical characteristics (ability to self-assemble), and to an in silico comparative calculation of their physico-chemical and ADME parameters. In the in vitro screening tests with several target compounds (8a-8c and 11c), their cytotoxicity changed with prolonged time, which appeared to be a result of formation of dynamic supramolecular networks. This phenomenon is important in investigation of the effect of self-assembly on biological activity. The most important compounds in this series were spermine derivatives of heterobetulonic acid (3b) and ursolic acid (8b), showing cytotoxicity <5 μM and <10 μM, respectively, on all tested cancer cell lines. Comparable cytotoxicity was also displayed by 13b, formerly a model compound prepared for testing of the synthetic procedures, the 1,2-diaminoethane derivative. The target compounds 3b and 8b displayed antimicrobial activity on Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans and Listeria monocytogenes at a concentration 6.25 μM. Supramolecular characteristics of several compounds were documented by the TEM and SEM micrographs showing fibrous, partially helical, networks, and UV measurements showing changes in the intensity of UV signals, also indicating formation of supramolecular systems.

Abstract
Multi-modal therapeutics are emerging for simultaneous diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Polymeric carriers are often employed for loading multiple drugs due to their versatility and controlled release of these drugs in response to a tumor specific microenvironment. A theranostic nanomedicine was designed and prepared by complexing a small gadolinium chelate, conjugating a chemotherapeutic drug PTX through a cathepsin B-responsive linker and covalently bonding a fluorescent probe pheophorbide a (Ppa) with a branched glycopolymer. The branched prodrug-based nanosystem was degradable in the tumor microenvironment with overexpressed cathepsin B, and PTX was simultaneously released to exert its therapeutic effect. The theranostic nanomedicine, branched glycopolymer-PTX-DOTA-Gd, had an extended circulation time, enhanced accumulation in tumors, and excellent biocompatibility with significantly reduced gadolinium ion (Gd3+) retention after 96 h post-injection. Enhanced imaging contrast up to 24 h post-injection and excellent antitumor efficacy with a tumor inhibition rate more than 90% were achieved from glycopolymer-PTX-DOTA-Gd without obvious systematic toxicity. This branched polymeric prodrug-based nanomedicine is very promising for safe and effective diagnosis and treatment of cancer. A cathepsin B-responsive theranostic nanomedicine (glycopolymer-PTX-DOTA-Gd) based on a branched glycopolymer was prepared. Glycopolymer-PTX-DOTA-Gd can be specifically degradated and release drug at tumor enviornment. Glycopolymer-PTX-DOTA-Gd enhance the contrast of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at tumor sites. The nanomedicine have good biocompatibility, excellent tumor targeting and anti-tumor efficacy.

Abstract
Reasonable management of the one-for-all nanoplatform can facilitate improved cancer therapy. Here, the metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) based on iron(iii) carboxylate material (MIL-101-NH2) were in situ decorated on stabilized polydopamine nanoparticles (PDANPs), which subsequently loaded glucose oxidase (GOx) via hyaluronic acid (HA) coating to structure the one-for-all intelligent core-shell nanoparticles (HG-MIL@PDANPs). Because of the inner PDANPs, the HG-MIL@PDANPs could realize near-infrared (NIR)-controllable site-specific photothermal therapy (PTT). Additionally, the core-shell nanoparticles exhibited a pH-triggered and NIR-reinforced release of Fe3+ and GOx owing to the controllable degradation of the outer shell. Hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) were produced for chemodynamic therapy (CDT) employing the Fe2+-driven Fenton reaction, which could be greatly promoted by Fe3+-involved glutathione (GSH) depletion and GOx-catalyzed acidity recovery and H2O2 self-sufficiency. Moreover, the HA ligand could enhance the tumor accumulation of the HG-MIL@PDANPs through the long blood circulation time and CD44-targeted cell recognition. The ingenious integration of PTT and CDT in one fully equipped system presented excellent synergistic antitumor efficiency in vitro and in vivo with favorable biosafety. The one-for-all intelligent core-shell nanoparticles with CD44 targeting provide a new avenue for engineering on-demand tumor-specific therapy.

Abstract
Combating multidrug resistance (MDR) of tumors is still challenging for clinical chemotherapy, cocktail chemotherapy (CCT), and currently widely-studied nanodrug-based treatments. Inspired by different MDR-overcoming and antitumor mechanisms of CCT and photothermal therapy (PT), a dual drug-paired polyprodrug nanoparticle (PDCN25-CDDP) was constructed to achieve the combination therapy PT-CCT for reversing MDR and combating multidrug resistant cancers. The PT-CCT treatment can greatly downregulate the P-gp expression level and achieve utmost MDR-reversal and antitumor efficacy by both a cocktail effect of CCT and a synergistic effect of CCT with PT; meanwhile, PT can inhibit the expression of heat shock protein 90 and enhance the thermosensitivity of cancer cells. Upon NIR irradiation, PDCN25-CDDPin vivo produced a selective tumor accumulation effect and relatively deep tumor penetration, as evidenced by fluorescent and photoacoustic imaging and CLSM. The mild PT-CCT treatment completely eradicated MCF-7/ADR and OVCAR-3/DDP tumors without skin damage or tumor recurrence for 30 days, exhibiting synergistic MDR-reversal and superior antitumor efficacy in vivo. Importantly, this work provides an innovative strategy for reversing MDR and combating DOX-resistant breast and CDDP-resistant ovarian cancers.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignant disease affecting women's health worldwide. The benefits from conventional therapeutic modalities are severely limited. An increasing number of promising photothermal materials have been recently developed and introduced into the therapeutic regimens of BC, but the underlying biological mechanism remains unclear. Silicon-based materials have enjoyed many popularities in the biomedical field owing to their desirable biocompatibility, biodegradability and versatility. Herein, we introduced two dimensional (2D) silicene nanosheets (SNSs) into the BC treatment and achieved profound photothermal-ablation efficacy. Importantly, this work reveals the underlying biological mechanism and regulation factors of photonic hyperthermia in BC. The RNA sequencing and immunoblot demonstrated that photothermia enhanced apoptosis in BC by activating caspase 3 and caspase 7. Importantly, knockdown of lysine demethylase KDM3A sensitized BC to photothermia epigenetically. It has been revealed that KDM3A could erase p53K372me1 and suppress the anti-cancer functions of p53, leading to the downregulation of pro-apoptotic proteins-PUMA and NOXA verified by Co-IP and ChIP-qPCR assays. Therefore, our results not only import near infrared light (NIR) induced photothermal ablation generated by SNSs-BSA into the BC treatment, but also clarify the underlying mechanism and regulation factors for further photothermal performance optimization and clinical translation.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an effective approach to cancer therapy. However, the high temperature during the therapy increases the damage to surrounding normal tissues. Thermochromic material, which exhibits temperature-activated color change and optical absorption, is a promising photothermal agent for precisely temperature-controlled PTT. Nevertheless, the construction of nanosized thermochromic particles with an appropriate transition temperature (44-47 °C) is still a great challenge. Here, thermochromic nanoparticles with the transition temperature at 45 °C based on a leuco dye-developer-solvent system are developed for thermostatic photothermal tumor therapy. Below the temperature, the nanoparticles take a dark green color to absorb light and convert it into heat efficiently. Once the temperature reaches the transition point, the colored nanoparticles switch to a colorless state, maintaining the temperature at the predefined level and allowing deeper light penetration. The autoregulated nanoparticles exhibit a prominent therapeutic effect for the tumor without destroying normal tissues.

Abstract
Hyperthermia has shown tremendous therapeutic efficiency in the treatment of cancer due to its controllability, minimal invasiveness and limited side effects compared to the conventional treatment techniques like surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. To improve the precision of hyperthermia specifically to a tumor location, near infra-red (NIR) light activatable inorganic metal nanoparticles have served as effective photothermal therapy materials, but toxicity and non-biodegradability have limited their clinical applications. Conjugated polymer nanoparticles have overcome these limitations and are emerging as superior photothermal materials owing to their excellent light harvesting nature, biocompatibility and tunable absorption properties. In this review we focus on the development of organic conjugated polymers (polyaniline, polypyrrole, polydopamine etc.) and their nanoparticles, which have broad NIR absorption. Such materials elicit photothermal effects upon NIR stimulation and may also serve as carriers for delivery of therapeutic and contrast agents for combined therapy. Subsequently, the emergence of donor-acceptor based semiconducting polymer nanoparticles with strong absorbance that is tunable across the NIR have been shown to eradicate tumors by either hyperthermia alone or combined with other therapies. The design of multifunctional polymer nanoparticles that absorb near- or mid- infrared light for heat generation, as well as their diagnostic abilities for precise biomedical applications are highlighted.

Abstract
Conventional chemotherapy for cancer treatment is usually compromised by shortcomings such as insufficient therapeutic outcome and undesired side effects. The past decade has witnessed the rapid development of combination therapy by integrating chemotherapy with hyperthermia for enhanced therapeutic efficacy. Near-infrared (NIR) light-mediated photothermal therapy, which has advantages such as great capacity of heat ablation and minimally invasive manner, has emerged as a powerful approach for cancer treatment. A variety of nanomaterials absorbing NIR light to generate heat have been developed to simultaneously act as carriers for chemotherapeutic drugs, contributing as heat trigger for drug release and/or inducing hyperthermia for synergistic effects. This review aims to summarize the recent development of advanced nanomaterials in chemo-photothermal combination therapy, including metal-, carbon-based nanomaterials and particularly organic nanomaterials. The potential challenges and perspectives for the future development of nanomaterials-based chemo-photothermal therapy were also discussed.
