Facile synthesis of near-infrared responsive on-demand oxygen releasing nanoplatform for precise MRI-guided theranostics of hypoxia-induced tumor chemoresistance and metastasis in triple negative breast cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hypoxia is an important factor that contributes to chemoresistance and metastasis in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), and alleviating hypoxia microenvironment can enhance the anti-tumor efficacy and also inhibit tumor invasion.

Methods

A near-infrared (NIR) responsive on-demand oxygen releasing nanoplatform (O₂-PPSiI) was successfully synthesized by a two-stage self-assembly process to overcome the hypoxia-induced tumor chemoresistance and metastasis. We embedded drug-loaded poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) cores into an ultrathin silica shell attached with paramagnetic Gd-DTPA to develop a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-guided NIR-responsive on-demand drug releasing nanosystem, where indocyanine green was used as a photothermal converter to trigge
