Ag2S quantum dots (QDs) emitting in the second near-infrared region (NIR-II, 1.0–1.4 μm) are demonstrated as a promising fluorescent probe with both bright photoluminescence and high biocompatibility for first time. Highly selective vitro targeting imaging of different cell lines achieved using biocompatible NIR-II QDs ligands. The cytotoxicity study illustrates negligible effects altering proliferation, triggering apoptosis necrosis, generating reactive oxygen species, causing DNA damage....
Shutting down glucose supply by oxidase (GOx) to starve tumors has been considered be an attractive strategy in cancerous starvation therapy. Nevertheless, the vivo applications of GOx-based therapy are severely restricted poor GOx delivery efficiency and self-limiting therapeutic effect. Herein, a biomimetic nanoreactor fabricated for starvation-activated cancer encapsulating prodrug tirapazamine (TPZ) erythrocyte membrane cloaked metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticle (TGZ@eM). The...
Abstract In this study, an organic semiconducting pro‐nanostimulant (OSPS) with a near‐infrared (NIR) photoactivatable immunotherapeutic action for synergetic cancer therapy is presented. OSPS comprises polymer nanoparticle (SPN) core and immunostimulant conjugated through singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) cleavable linkers. Upon NIR laser irradiation, generates both heat to exert combinational phototherapy not only ablate tumors but also produce tumor‐associated antigens. More importantly,...
Abstract The fabrication of functional nanoplatforms for combating multidrug‐resistant bacteria is vital importance. Among them, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) have shown an antibacterial effect; however, the remainder cores Ag NPs after use might a toxic effect on humans. Thus, ions based materials been fabricated to substitute applications. Nevertheless, always‐on release state leads low biocompatibility, which limits their biomedical In addition, single also restricts ability. Herein,...
Abstract Development of real‐time non‐invasive imaging probes to assess infiltration and activation cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) is critical predict the efficacy cancer immunotherapy, which however remains challenging. Reported here an activatable semiconducting polymer nanoprobe (SPNP) for near‐infrared fluorescence (NIRF) photoacoustic (PA) a biomarker (granzyme B) associated with CTLs. SPNP comprises (SP) conjugated granzyme B cleavable dye‐labeled peptide as side chain, both emit NIRF PA...
Abstract The regulation of tumor immunosuppressive microenvironments via precise drug delivery is a promising strategy for preventing recurrence and metastasis. Inspired by the stealth strategy, stealthy nanovehicle based on neutrophil camouflage developed to achieve immunotherapy triggering pyroptosis. comprises anti‐CD11b‐ IR820‐conjugated bovine serum albumin nanoparticles loaded with decitabine. Camouflaged neutrophils, nanovehicles efficient hitchhiking owing biotropism neutrophils...
We first used oligomer polyamide resin as carbon source to prepare dots (CDs) that can emit white fluorescence via one step ultrasound at room temperature. have had a further understanding in the surface morphology and chemical characteristics of CDs by performing TEM, XPS, XRD, FT-IR, Raman spectroscopy. It has been found such good dispersion, low crystallinity, rich functional groups, easy large-scale production. The quantum yield fluorescent was enhanced from 3.3% 28.3% adding silane...
Abstract Reactive oxygen species (ROS) depletion and low ROS production that result from the intratumoral redox metabolism equilibrium energy conversion efficiency ultrasound mechanical to ROS‐represented chemical energy, respectively, are two vital inhibitory factors of sonodynamic therapy (SDT). To address concerns, a tumor metabolism‐engineered composite nanoplatform capable intervening metabolism, breaking equilibrium, reshaping microenvironment is constructed reinforce SDT against...
Nanoparticle-based radio-sensitizers can amplify the effects of radiation therapy on tumor tissue even at relatively low concentrations while reducing potential side to healthy surrounding tissues.
