Protein-based photothermal theranostics for imaging-guided cancer therapy

Abstract: Development of imageable photothermal theranostics has attracted considerable attention for imaging guided photothermal therapy (PTT) with high tumor ablation accuracy. In this study, we strategically constructed a near-infrared (NIR) cyanine dye by introducing a rigid cyclohexenyl ring to the heptamethine chain to obtain a heptamethine dye CySCOOH with high fluorescence intensity and good stability. By covalent conjugation of CySCOOH onto human serum albumin (HSA), the as-prepared HSA@CySCOOH nanoplatform is … Show more

“…Inspired by the interactions between protein molecules and drugs in vivo, protein molecules have been developed as drug delivery vehicles for photosensitizers. The conjugation of a heptamethine dye, CySCOOH, to HSA through amide coupling reaction formed HSA@CySCOOH conjugates . The conjugation induced an increase of only 1.2 nm to the size of HSA, indicating that no aggregation of HSA occurred.…”
