Oxygen and Pt(II) self-generating conjugate for synergistic photo-chemo therapy of hypoxic tumor.


ABSTRACT: Cancer cells in hypoxic tumors are remarkably resistant to photodynamic therapy. Here, we hypothesize that an oxygen and Pt(II) self-generating multifunctional nanocomposite could reverse the hypoxia-triggered PDT resistance. The nanocomposite contains Pt(IV) and chlorin e6, in which upconversion nanoparticles are loaded to convert 980?nm near-infrared light into 365?nm and 660?nm emissions. Upon accumulation at the tumor site, a 980?nm laser is used to trigger the nanocomposite to generate O2 for consumption in the PDT process and to produce cytotoxic reactive oxygen species. The composite also releases active Pt(II) for synergistic photo-chemo therapy to enhance antitumor efficiency. The oxygen and Pt(II) self-generating prodrug is shown to have high potential to inhibit tumors out of the range of UV light, to overcome the hypoxia-triggered PDT resistance and significantly improve anticancer efficacy by the synergistic PDT-chemotherapy.
