Abstract: | Gold nanovesicles(GVs) with unique plasmonic property and large cavity hold great potential as a stimuli-responsive nanocarrier to deliver drugs for efficient tumor chemotherapy and other therapies synergistically.Herein,we developed doxorubicin-loaded gold nanovesicles(DGVs),offering infrared thermal(IRT) and photoacoustic(PA) dual-modal imaging guided mild hype rthermia-enhanced chemophotothermal cancer synergistic therapy.The DGVs are self-assembled by gold nanoparticles modified with amphiphilic copolymer in a predetermined concentration of doxorubicin through film rehydration method.Under the influence of laser excitation,the as-prepared DGVs exhibited good photothermal effect,which triggered the structural disruption of GVs and thus,allowed the efficient release of encapsulated DOX to enhance cell uptake for fluorescence imaging and tumor chemotherapy,respectively.In addition,DGVs also showed a strong PA and IRT signals in vivo.Our study demonstrated the potential of DGVs as stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems and cancer theranostics. |
