ICG-conjugated Magnetic Graphene Oxide for Dual Photothermal and Photodynamic Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Aptamer-functionalized magnetic graphene oxide conjugates loaded with indocyanine green (ICG) dye, or Apt@ICG@mGO, have been successfully developed for dual-targeted photothermal and photodynamic therapy. In general, a drug or its carrier or their dosage can be imprtant important issues in terms of toxicity. However, in this system, each component used is quite safe, biocompatibe and clean. For instance, ICG, a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved near-infrared (NIR) dye, serves as both a photothermal and photodynamic agent. It is immobilized on the surface of mGO via a physical interaction called "?-? stacking". The mGO, as a most biocomptible member of the carbo family, is selected for use as a platform for aptamer and ICG dye conjugation, as well as as a photothermal agent. The light in the near-infrared region (NIR) was chosen as a harmless light source for activating the agents for photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). The magnetic properties of mGO are also used for separation of Apt@ICG@mGO conjugates from the reaction medium. Aptamer sgc8 acts as a targeting ligand to selectively and specifically bind to a protein on the membrane of cancer cell line CCRF-CEM. After the aptamer- functionalized ICG@mGO conjugates are incubated with target CEM cells at 37 °C for 2 hours, they are bound to cells or they may be internalized into the cell via endocytosis. More significantly, we demonstrated that the Apt@ICG@mGO conjugates produce heat for photothermal therapy (PTT) and singlet oxygen for photodynamic therapy (PDT) upon NIR laser irradiation at 808 nm. Thus, remarkably efficient cancer cell destructions with ~41% and ~60% and ~82% cell killing using 10, 50 and 100 ppm Apt@ICG@mGO, respectively are achieved in 5 min light exposure.

Project description:Innovative synthesis routes revolutionized nanomaterial combination and design possibilities resulting in a new generation of fine-tuned nanoparticles featuring exquisite shape and constitution control. However, there is still room for improvement when it comes to the development of multi-functional nanoparticle agents merging a plurality of therapeutic functions to tackle tumors simultaneously by synergic mechanisms. Herein, we report the design of an optimized nanohybrid for cancer tri-therapy featuring a maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) nanoflower-like multicore nanoparticle conceived for efficient magnetic hyperthermia (MHT) and a spiky copper sulfide shell (IONF@CuS) with a high near-infrared (NIR) absorption coefficient suitable for photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). Methods: Spiky-like IONF@CuS nanohybrids were obtained through a straightforward and scalable water-based template sacrificial synthesis, which allows the shell shape control by tuning polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) concentration. A comprehensive characterization of nanohybrid size, shape and structural properties was carried out by combining complementary TEM, SEM, HR-TEM, EELS, XRD and NTA. The all-in-one therapeutic multi-functionality was assessed on cancer cells and on tumor-bearing nude mice. Results: Tests carried out on IONF@CuS nanohybrid aqueous dispersion demonstrated their impressive efficiency to convert light (conversion coefficient = 42 ± 6 %) and magnetic stimulation (SAR ~ 350 W g-1) into heat as well as to induce concurrent reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation upon laser irradiation. Such capabilities were further confirmed in cellular environment by in vitro tests and at the organism level by in vivo tests in a murine tumor model. Notably, complete tumor regression was obtained for the PTT mode at low Cu concentration. Overall, these results allowed determining windows of applicability for each therapy individually or in combination. Conclusions: Altogether, the obtained data evidence the successful synthesis of a unique tri-therapeutic nanoparticle featuring highly relevant assets for clinical translation such as reduced nanoparticle administered dose, reduced laser power exposure, reduced magnetic field frequency, and the possibility of serial heating cycles and therapy monitoring by photoacoustic (PA) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Furthermore, the integration of the dual heating capability (MHT + PTT) with the PDT insult offers a unique asset to tackle tumors by multiple cytotoxic strategies in order to improve the therapeutic outcome in a broader spectrum of clinical conditions.
