An All‐Round Athlete on the Track of Phototheranostics: Subtly Regulating the Balance between Radiative and Nonradiative Decays for Multimodal Imaging‐Guided Synergistic Therapy

Advanced Materials, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 32(36)

Опубликована: Июль 21, 2020

Abstract Aiming to achieve versatile phototheranostics with the integrated functionalities of multiple diagnostic imaging and synergistic therapy, optimum use dissipated energy through both radiative nonradiative pathways is definitely appealing, yet a significantly challenging task. To best knowledge, there have been no previous reports on single molecular species effective at affording all phototheranostic modalities including fluorescence (FLI), photoacoustic (PAI), photothermal (PTI), photodynamic therapy (PDT), (PTT). Herein, simple highly powerful one‐for‐all based aggregation‐induced emission (AIE)‐active fluorophores tactfully designed constructed. Thanks its strong electron donor–acceptor interaction finely modulated intramolecular motion, AIE fluorophore‐based nanoparticles simultaneously exhibit bright near‐infrared II (NIR‐II) emission, efficient reactive oxygen generation, high conversion efficiency upon NIR irradiation, indicating actualization balance between dissipations. Furthermore, unprecedented performance NIR‐II FLI‐PAI‐PTI trimodal‐imaging‐guided PDT–PTT demonstrated by precise tumor diagnosis complete elimination outcomes. This study thus brings new insight into development superior for practical cancer theranostics.

Ultrasound-Augmented Mitochondrial Calcium Ion Overload by Calcium Nanomodulator to Induce Immunogenic Cell Death

Nano Letters, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 21(5), С. 2088 - 2093

Опубликована: Фев. 17, 2021

Immunogenic cell death (ICD), a manner of tumor that can trigger antitumor immune responses, has received extensive attention as potential synergistic modality for cancer immunotherapy. Although many calcium ion (Ca2+) nanomodulators have been developed therapy through mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, their ICD-inducing properties not explored. Herein, an acid-sensitive PEG-decorated carbonate (CaCO3) nanoparticle incorporating curcumin (CUR; enhancer) (PEGCaCUR) was prepared using simple one-pot strategy. PEGCaCUR served only nanomodulator inducing efficient overload but also ICD inducer during improved therapy. Combination with ultrasound (US), PEGCaCUR+US, led to enhanced effect attributable the along subsequent upregulation reactive oxygen species levels. facilitates photoacoustic/fluorescence dual-mode imaging, well effectively suppressing growth and metastasis, indicating promising theranostic properties.

Calixarene‐Based Supramolecular AIE Dots with Highly Inhibited Nonradiative Decay and Intersystem Crossing for Ultrasensitive Fluorescence Image‐Guided Cancer Surgery

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 59(25), С. 10008 - 10012

Опубликована: Янв. 25, 2020

Abstract Host–guest complexation between calix[5]arene and aggregation‐induced emission luminogen (AIEgen) can significantly turn off both the energy dissipation pathways of intersystem crossing thermal deactivation, enabling absorbed excitation to mostly focus on fluorescence emission. The co‐assembly amphiphiles AIEgens affords highly emissive supramolecular AIE nanodots thanks their interaction severely restricting intramolecular motion AIEgens, which also show negligible generation cytotoxic reactive oxygen species. In vivo studies with a peritoneal carcinomatosis‐bearing mouse model indicate that such dots have rather low in side toxicity serve as superior fluorescent bioprobe for ultrasensitive image‐guided cancer surgery.

Chemical Science, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 11(13), С. 3405 - 3417

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2020

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is considered a pioneering and effective modality for cancer treatment, but it still facing challenges of hypoxic tumors. Recently, Type I PDT, as an strategy to address this issue, has drawn considerable attention. Few reports are available on the capability reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation purely organic photosensitizers (PSs). Herein, we report two new PSs, α-TPA-PIO β-TPA-PIO, from phosphindole oxide-based isomers with efficient ROS abilities. A detailed study photophysical photochemical mechanisms conducted shed light molecular design PSs based mechanism. The in vitro results demonstrate that these can selectively accumulate neutral lipid region, particularly endoplasmic reticulum (ER), cells efficiently induce ER-stress mediated apoptosis autophagy PDT. In vivo models indicate β-TPA-PIO successfully achieves remarkable tumor ablation. ROS-based ER stress triggered by β-TPA-PIO-mediated PDT high potential precursor immunostimulatory effect immunotherapy. This work presents comprehensive protocol I-based highlights significance considering working mechanism optimization treatment protocols.
