研究目的
Investigating the therapeutic effects of PEGylated-folic acid–modified black phosphorus quantum dots as near-infrared agents for dual-modality imaging-guided selective cancer cell destruction.
研究成果
The BPQDs-based nanoplatform with drug delivery capability and triple collaborative targeted tumor therapy was designed. It exhibited good biocompatibility, efficient internalization by targeted cells, and excellent antitumor effects in mice, presenting potential as a promising cancer therapy with good biological safety.
研究不足
The study focuses on the in vitro and in vivo effects of the nanoplatform on specific cancer cell lines and mouse models, which may not fully represent the complexity of human tumors. Further optimization and clinical trials are needed to assess the applicability and safety in humans.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
BPQDs were synthesized and functionalized by targeting moieties (PEG-NH2-FA) and loaded with anticancer drugs (doxorubicin) for photodynamic–photothermal–chemotherapy.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
Human embryonic kidney 293T (HEK 293T) cells were used for in vitro experiments, and BALB/c female nude mice were used for in vivo experiments.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
Transmission electron microscope (TEM; JEM-2100HR; JEOL, Japan), atomic force microscope (AFM; FM-Nanoview 1000; FSM-Precision, China), Raman scattering excited using a 633-nm laser (Horiba Jobin-Yvon Lab Ram HR VIS), UV-vis-NIR Lambda 750 spectrometer, Zetasizer Nano ZS90 analyzer, laser scanning confocal microscope (Nikon, Japan), 808-nm consecutive NIR laser (Changchun New Industries Optoelectronics Technology, China), infrared thermal-imaging camera (InfraTec; VarioCAM? Research, Germany), optoacoustic tomographic imaging system (VevoLAZR; FujiFilm VisualSonics, Mountain View, CA, USA).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
BPQDs were synthesized, functionalized, and loaded with doxorubicin. The nanocomposites were tested for photodynamic, photothermal, and chemotherapy effects in vitro and in vivo.
5:Data Analysis Methods
The optical density at 450 nm was read using an iEMSAnalyzer (Lab-system) for cytotoxicity assays. PA and US images were analyzed for tumor imaging and therapy evaluation.
