Sumario: | Nanomedicine has been widely studied for the diagnosis and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). How to synthesize a nanoplatform possessing a high synergistic therapeutic efficacy remains a challenge in this emerging research field. In this study, a convenient all-in-one therapeutic nanoplatform (FTY720@AM/T7-TL) is designed for HCC. This advanced nanoplatform consists of multiple functional elements, including gold-manganese dioxide nanoparticles (AM), tetraphenylethylene (T), fingolimod (FTY720), hybrid-liposome (L), and T7 peptides (T7). The nanoplatform is negatively charged at physiological pH and can transit to a positively charged state once moving to acidic pH environments. The specially designed pH-responsive charge-reversal nanocarrier prolongs the half-life of nanodrugs in blood and improves cellular uptake efficiency. The platform achieves a sustained and controllable drug release through dual stimulus-response, with pH as the endogenous stimulus and near-infrared as the exogenous stimulus. Furthermore, the nanoplatform realizes in situ O(2) generation by catalyzing tumor over-expressed H(2)O(2), which alleviates tumor microenvironment hypoxia and improves photodynamic therapy. Both in vitro and in vivo studies show the prepared nanoplatform has good photothermal conversion, cellular uptake efficiency, fluorescence/magnetic resonance imaging capabilities, and synergistic anti-tumor effects. These results suggest that the prepared all-in-one nanoplatform has great potential for dual-modal imaging-guided synergistic therapy of HCC. |
