The fabrication of multifunctional nano-therapies has increased gradually to strengthen the therapeutic performance and minimize adverse effects of traditional cancer treatment strategies. Currently, we have designed a facile preparation drug-loaded nanocarrier for multimodal cancer therapy upon external stimuli. First, defect-rich molybdenum oxo-sulfide (MoOS) quantum dots (QDs) was synthesized via rapid biomineralization techniques with superior optical quantum yield reaching upto 37.28%. The presence of the Fenton ion, Mo, enables MoOS QDs to efficiently catalyze peroxide solutions to produce •OH radicals for chemodynamic treatment (CDT) and also deactivate the intracellular glutathione (GSH) enzymes through redox reaction for boosted reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated therapies. In addition, upon laser combination, MoOS QDs generate ROS for photodynamic therapy (PDT). Also, due to a large amount of sulfide content, MoOS QDs showed excellent HS gas release in acidic pH for cancer gas therapy. Then, MoOS QDs was further conjugated with ROS-responsive thioketal linked Camptothecin (CPT-TK-COOH) drug, forming a multitargeted MoOSCPT anticancer agent with better drug-loading efficiency (38.8%). After triggering the ROS generation through the CDT and PDT mechanisms, the thioketal linkage was disrupted, releasing up to 79% of the CPT drug in 48 h. Besides, in vitro experiments verified that MoOS QDs possess higher biocompatibility with 4T1 and HeLa cells but also showed considerable toxicity in the presence of laser/HO, resulting in 84.45% cell death through PDT/CDT and chemotherapeutic effects. Therefore, the designed MoOSCPT exhibited outstanding therapeutic benefits for image-guided cancer therapy.
多功能纳米治疗的制备逐渐增加,以增强传统癌症治疗策略的治疗效果并最小化不良反应。目前,我们设计了一种简便的载药纳米载体,可在外部刺激下进行多模式癌症治疗。首先,通过快速生物矿化技术合成了富含缺陷的钼氧硫化物(MoOS)量子点(QD),具有高达 37.28%的优异光学量子产率。Fenton 离子 Mo 的存在使 MoOS QD 能够有效地催化过氧化物溶液产生用于化学动力学治疗(CDT)的•OH 自由基,并通过氧化还原反应使细胞内谷胱甘肽(GSH)酶失活,以增强活性氧(ROS)介导的治疗。此外,在激光联合作用下,MoOS QD 产生 ROS 用于光动力治疗(PDT)。此外,由于大量的硫化物含量,MoOS QD 在酸性 pH 下表现出优异的 HS 气体释放,用于癌症气体治疗。然后,MoOS QD 进一步与 ROS 响应的硫缩酮连接的喜树碱(CPT-TK-COOH)药物缀合,形成具有更好载药效率(38.8%)的多靶向 MoOSCPT 抗癌剂。通过 CDT 和 PDT 机制触发 ROS 生成后,硫缩酮键被破坏,在 48 小时内释放多达 79%的 CPT 药物。此外,体外实验验证了 MoOS QD 与 4T1 和 HeLa 细胞具有更高的生物相容性,但在激光/HO 的存在下也表现出相当大的毒性,导致通过 PDT/CDT 和化学治疗作用的细胞死亡达到 84.45%。因此,设计的 MoOSCPT 对图像引导的癌症治疗表现出卓越的治疗效果。
