Anal Chim Acta. 2024 May 15;1303:342521. doi: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342521. Epub 2024 Mar 22.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Theranostic nanoplatforms with integrated diagnostic imaging and multiple therapeutic functions play a vital role in precise diagnosis and efficient treatment for breast cancer, but unfortunately, these nanoplatforms are usually stuck in single-site imaging and single mode of treatment, causing unsatisfactory diagnostic and therapeutic efficiency. Herein, a dual biomarkers-activatable facile hollow mesoporous MnO2 (H-MnO2)-based theranostic nanoplatform, DNAzyme@H-MnO2-MUC1 aptamer (DHMM), was constructed for the simultaneous multi-site diagnosis and multiple treatment of breast cancer.RESULTS: The DHMM acted as an integrated diagnostic and therapeutic nanoplatform that realizes multi-site fluorescence imaging-guided high-efficient photothermal/chemodynamic/gene synergistic therapy (PTT/CDT/GT) for breast cancer. The H-MnO2 exhibits high loading capacity for Cy5-MUC1 aptamer (3.05 pmoL μg-1) and FAM-DNAzyme (3.37 pmoL μg-1), and excellent quenching for the probes. In the presence of MUC1 on the cell membrane and GSH in the cytoplasm, Cy5-MUC1 aptamer and FAM-DNAzyme was activated triggering dual-channel fluorescence imaging at different sites. Moreover, the self-supplied Mn2+ was further supplied as DNAzyme cofactors to catalytic cleavage intracellular EGR-1 mRNA for high-efficient GT and stimulated the Fenton-like reaction for CDT. The H-MnO2 also showcases a favor...
