Abstract
Multidrug resistance of cancer cells is a major obstacle for cancer chemotherapy. Herein, we present a nanocarrier that can release chemotherapeutic agents to induce tumor cell death and generate NO under NIR to overcome multidrug resistance in cancer chemotherapy. Owing to the unique structure of the water channel in this controlled release system for chemotherapeutic agents, the nanocarrier surface is equipped with more active sites to graft NO donor molecules. The released NO performs very well in reversing multidrug resistance by inhibiting P-gp expression. Our findings provide new insight into multidrug resistance cancer therapy and controlled release nanocarriers for multiple drugs.
