Near-Infrared-Light Induced Nanoparticles with Enhanced Tumor Tissue Penetration and Intelligent Drug Release

Tumor tissue presents much denser and stiffer extracellular matrix (ECM), which can hinder the penetration of most nanoparticles (NPs) and contribute to the tumor cell proliferation. Here, NIR-activated losartan was encapsulated in hollow mesoporous prussian blue nanoparticles (HMPBs) to degrade ECM. The results showed that losartan enhanced the penetration of DOX, 1.32% of the injected dose (ID) of DOX reached the tumor tissues, which was 5.74-fold higher than the control group (0.23%). In addition, as the existence of thermo-sensitive lauric acid, (Losartan+DOX)@HMPBs could achieve “zero drug leakage” during blood circulation, so as to reduce the damage of DOX to normal tissues. Furthermore, the animal experiments proved the excellent tumor inhibition ability of (Losartan+DOX)@HMPBs in synergistic of photothermal/chemotherapy, with the tumor growth inhibition rate of 81.3%. Taken together, these findings can be a candidate for developing vectors with enhanced tumor penetration and therapeutic effect in future clinical application.
