Suzhou University Liuzhuang Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.: Biodegradable multifunctional inorganic nanotumor diagnostic reagent

【introduction】

Photothermia (PTT), as a non-traditional treatment of tumors, relies on a reagent that is strongly absorbed in the near-infrared to convert light energy into heat, thereby killing tumor cells. To date, many such agents have been developed for use in photothermal therapy. In addition, the researchers also found that combining imaging with photothermal therapy can greatly improve the targeting and sensitivity of cancer treatment. However, the biodegradability of inorganic nano-reagents that can achieve this function greatly hinders clinical development. Over the years, people have been working on a versatile biodegradable inorganic nano-reagent, the most common of which is ultra-small nanoparticles. Although it solves the problem of not being able to be discharged, most of the time it is greatly weakened by function. For the price. Therefore, the development of a biodegradable multifunctional inorganic nano-reagent is of great significance for the study of tumor diagnosis and treatment.

[Introduction]

Recently, Professor Liu Zhuang and Associate Professor Cheng Liang (Common Newsletter) of Suzhou University published a research paper entitled “Degradable Vanadium Disulfide Nanostructures with Unique Optical and Magnetic Functions for Cancer Theranostics” at Angewandte Chemie International Edition, which reported a VS2 degradable nano-reagents, which use PEG-modified lipid vesicles to encapsulate VS2 nano-dots to prepare a nano-test VS2@lipid-PEG with both photothermal conversion and multi-mode imaging. The most important thing is that the reagent has Biodegradable without obvious toxic side effects. The authors used VS2@lipid-PEG nanoparticles to confirm in vivo magnetic resonance imaging, photoacoustic imaging and single electron emission computed tomography imaging based on VS2, and realized the application of VS2@lipid-PEG nanoparticles to multimode imaging. In photothermal therapy, the effect is remarkable.
