Abstract
Although chemotherapy has been intensively applied in cancer treatments,its inadequate therapeutic efficacy and severe side effects are still under constant concerns.Nanoplatforms used as anti-tumor drug delivery system(DDS)have attracted tremendous attentions owing to their various intriguing properties.Herein,Mn-doped MoO2 nanoparticles coated with ZrO2 and capped with Bi2O3 have been designed as a DDS,namely MMZB.MMZB possesses good magnetic properties,great pho-tothermal conversion ability,sensitive tumor microenvi-ronment(TME)responsiveness,and good biocompatibility in hemocompatibility in vitro.Thus,MMZB has been utilized to load the chemotherapeutic agent daunomycin(DNM)(MMZB@DNM)for chemo-photothermal com-bined therapy.MMZB@DNM demonstrates a more impressive anti-cancer effect than the individual pho-tothermal or chemotherapy both in vitro and in vivo.Fur-thermore,the analysis of tumor specimen sections and serum levels after the treatment indicates negligible side effects for MMZB@DNM in vivo.This contribution pro-vides a valuable concept in designing therapeutic agents for achieving significantly enhanced tumor treatments,which benefits from the synergistic combination of chemotherapy and photothermal therapy in one single nanoagent.
