NIR-II Photoresponsive Magnetoliposomes for Remote-Controlled Release and Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

ABSTRACT: Magnetic nanoparticles, especially iron oxide nanoparticles, have become versatile and widely used tools in nanomedicine due to their unique magnetic properties, biocompatibility, and tunable functionality. Liposomes have further enhanced the potential of iron oxide nanoparticles by serving as effective nanocarriers with advantages such as drug coencapsulation and enhanced molecular imaging properties. In this study, we present magnetoliposomes composed of ultrasmall free-floating iron oxide nanoparticles inside liposomes (LP-IONPs) and thermoresponsive phospholipids, which were designed as dual T₂-T₁ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents for image-guided liposome degradation and infrared light-responsive nanocarriers in the second biological
