Abstract
Osteosarcoma, as the most prevalent primary malignant bone tumor, has consistently shown suboptimal clinical treatment outcomes. In this manuscript, we proposed an efficacious and novel phototherapy strategy for osteosarcoma based on a photoresponsive near-infrared (NIR) material, CaCO3-ICG-DDP-PEG-PT (CIDP-PT), which contained calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and Cisplatin (DDP) via the gas dispersion method, and indocyanine green (ICG) was encapsulated through a nanoprecipitation reaction by employing DSPE-PEG2000-COOH to enhance the stability and hydrophilicity. The targeting oligopeptide (PT) for osteosarcoma cells was inserted into the outer membrane of nanoparticles, thereby further enhancing the tumor-targeting capability through receptor-mediated binding. The prepared CIDP-PT nanoparticles exhibited high targeting efficiency and multifunctionality. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that CIDP-PT significantly enhanced the therapeutic efficacy for osteosarcoma via the NIR-II photoresponsive and tumor-targeting approach. It achieves efficient tumor cell eradication through multiple modalities while maintaining an exceptional level of biocompatibility. Hence, the CIDP-PT nanocarriers possess considerable practical value for future clinical applications in adjunct osteosarcoma phototherapy.
