Polyprodrug Amphiphiles: Hierarchical Assemblies for Shape-Regulated Cellular Internalization, Trafficking, and Drug Delivery

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PEG-b-PCPTM polyprodrug amphiphiles, where PEG is poly(ethylene glycol) and PCPTM is polymerized block of reduction-cleavable camptothecin (CPT) prodrug monomer, can self-assemble into four types of uniform nanostructures including spheres, large compound vesicles, smooth disks, and unprecedented staggered lamellae with spiked periphery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell-penetrating hyperbranched polyprodrug amphiphiles for synergistic reductive milieu-triggered drug release and enhanced magnetic resonance signals.

TL;DR: The hyperbranched chain topology provides a novel theranostic polyprodrug platform for synergistic imaging/chemotherapy and enhanced tumor uptake and hyperbrANChed cores conjugated with reduction-activatable camptothecin prodrugs and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast agent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondria-specific drug release and reactive oxygen species burst induced by polyprodrug nanoreactors can enhance chemotherapy.

TL;DR: N nanoparticles that release camptothecin in a reactive oxygen species dependent manner, leading to cancer cell death, are used, which overcomes the short lifespan and action range of ROS, avoids the penetration limitation of exogenous light in photodynamic therapy, and is promising for theranostics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Light-driven transformable optical agent with adaptive functions for boosting cancer surgery outcomes

TL;DR: A smart organic nanoparticle whose absorbed excitation energy can be photo-switched to the pathway of thermal deactivation for photoacoustic imaging, or to allow opposed routes for fluorescence imaging and photodynamic therapy to ensure total tumour removal.
