HIGHLIGHTS • Titania-coated Au nanobipyramids (NBP@TiO2) with a high photothermal conversion efficiency in the NIR-II window are synthesized. • The TiO2 shell is capable for the loading of the anticancer drug combretastatin A-4 phosphate (CA4P). • The CA4P-loaded NBP@TiO2 nanostructures subjected with photothermal therapy induce synergistic anticancer and antiangiogenesis effects under 1064-nm laser irradiation at a power density lower than the skin tolerance threshold value.
ABSTRACT Photothermal agents with strong light absorption in the
1064 nm
second near-infrared (NIR-II) region (1000–1350 nm) are strongly desired
Photothermal therapy
Antiangiogenesis
for successful photothermal therapy (PTT). In this work, titania-coated Au nanobipyramids (NBP@TiO2) with a strong plasmon resonance in the NIR-II window were synthesized. The NBP@TiO2 nanostructures
have a high photothermal conversion efficiency of (93.3 ± 5.2)% under
NBP@TiO2 CA4P
1064-nm laser irradiation. They are also capable for loading an anticancer drug combretastatin A-4 phosphate (CA4P). In vitro PTT studies reveal that 1064-nm laser irradiation can efficiently ablate human lung cancer
CA4P-NBP@TiO2
A549 cells and enhance the anticancer effect of CA4P. Moreover, the CA4P-loaded NBP@TiO2 nanostructures combined with PTT induce a
synergistic antiangiogenesis effect. In vivo studies show that such CA4P-
loaded NBP@TiO2 nanostructures under mild 1064-nm laser irradiation at an optical power density of 0.4 W cm−2, which is lower than the skin
tolerance threshold value, exhibit a superior antitumor effect. This work presents not only the development of the NBP@TiO2 nanostructures as a novel photothermal agent responsive in the NIR-II window but also a unique combined chemo-photothermal therapy strategy for cancer therapy.
