Erythrocyte-Cancer Hybrid Membrane-Camouflaged Prussian Blue Nanoparticles with Enhanced Photothermal Therapy in Tumors.

Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles have been widely used in photothermal therapy research due to the efficient photothermal conversion ability. In this study, PB was modified with a bionic coating using a hybrid membrane of red blood cell membranes and tumor cell membranes to prepare bionic photothermal nanoparticles (PB/RHM), which can further improve the blood circulation ability and tumor targeting of the nanoparticles to achieve efficient photothermal therapy for tumor treatment. formulation characterization showed that PB/RHM was a monodisperse spherical core-shell structured nanoparticle with a diameter of 207.2 nm and effectively retained the cell membrane proteins. The biological evaluation results showed that PB/RHM could effectively accumulate into the tumor tissue, inducing a rapid temperature increase in the tumor site to 50.9 °C within 10 min, inhibiting tumor growth efficiently with a tumor inhibition rate of 93.56% and with good therapeutic safety. In summary, this paper provided a hybrid film-modified Prussian blue nanoparticle with efficient photothermal anti-tumor capacity and safety.
