After deacetylated, hyaluronic acid was reacted with anticancer drug chlorambucil, RGD, and quantum dots to obtain the HA-RGD-CLB-QDs drug delivery system. The characterization by FT-IR, ~1 H NMR, TEM, XPS, DLS, and UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectra show that the system is successfully constructed with an average particle size of about 70 nm. The results of the drug release profile show that that the system has a p H and enzyme sensitive controlled release behaviour. Moreover, cellular uptake and toxicity results show that the system has an ideal dual receptormediated endocytosis pathway that significantly enhances the efficacy of CLB tumor therapy and has a lower toxicity to normal cells.The system shows the potential application as a carrier for cancer therapy.展开更多

The physiochemical properties of the prepared nanoparticles were characterized by FTIR, UV-vis spectra, and ~1H NMR. Doxorubicin hydrochloride（DOX）, an anticancer drug, was used as the model drug to investigate the drug loading, in vitro drug release profiles and cytotoxicity. The experimental results show that DOX-GNRs@mSiO_2-HA-RGD is synthesized with a mean diameter of 116 nm and a sufficient load capacity of about 19.8%. It also has p H-enzyme sensitive and NIRtriggered drug release manner. Cellular uptake indicates that DOX-GNRs@mSiO_2-HA-RGD exhibits a higher cellular uptake via CD44 receptor and integrin receptor mediated endocytosis compared with the GNRs@mSiO_2 modified with one receptor or no receptor. In comparison with chemotherapy or photothermal therapy alone, DOX-GNRs@mSiO_2-HA-RGD displayes the synergistic effects and achieves a higher therapeutic efficacy. It can be expected that DOX-GNRs@mSiO_2-HA-RGD is a potential dual-targeted chemo-photothermal therapeutic platform for effective cancer treatment.展开更多
