description MiRNA-targeted therapy is an active research field in precision cancer therapy. Studying the effect of miRNA expression changes on apoptosis is important for evaluating miRNA-targeted therapy and realizing personalized precision therapy for cancer patients. Here, a new fluorescent nanoprobe was designed for the simultaneous imaging of miRNA-21 and apoptotic protein caspase-3 in cancer cells by using gold nanoparticles as the core and polydopamine as the shell. Confocal imaging indicated that the nanoprobe could be successfully applied for in situ monitoring of miRNA regulation of apoptosis. This design strategy is critical for investigating the feasibility of miRNA-targeted therapy, screening new anti-cancer drugs targeting miRNA, and developing personalized treatment plans.
