Hybrid manganese dioxide-bovine serum albumin nanostructure incorporated with doxorubicin and IR780 for enhanced breast cancer chemo-photothermal therapy. Drug Deliv. 2019 Dec;26(1):1254-1264 Authors: Yuan X, Yin Y, Zan W, Sun X, Yang Q Abstract The therapeutic outcome of chemotherapy is limited, although it is still the preferent strategy for cancer therapy. By regulation of tumor microenvironment and introduction of another therapeutic manner for combination therapy can enhance the anticancer activity of chemotherapeutics. Herein, we have constructed a hybrid nanostructure which composed of manganese dioxide (MnO2) and doxorubicin (DOX) as well as IR780 by stabilizing with BSA (BMDI) in one-pot procedure to alleviate tumor hypoxia and enhance tumor growth inhibition. The MnO2 can react with H2O2 to generate oxygen, and additionally react with GSH to realize tumor microenvironment responsive drug controlled release. And the release Mn ions further enhanced the magnetic resonance signal which made the BMDI a promising contrast agent for MRI. Moreover, the introduction of MnO2 has enhanced the anticancer activity of DOX in vitro and in vivo, and efficiently suppressed the tumor growth. By further introducing with photothermal therapy (PTT), the tumor growth was almost inhibited. It demonstrated that the BMDI hybrid nanostructure has great potential in tumor growth inhibition as therapeutics carrier. PMID: 31760842 [PubMed - ...
